What it does

Ws Workflow Engine Bridge is an agent skill from Ckokoski/AuthorAgent. Import and execute Author Workflow Engine prompt sequences inside AuthorClaw

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Writing & Content. The repository describes itself as: The Autonomous AI Writing Agent — a secure, author-focused AI for fiction and nonfiction authors (Planning, Revision, Promotion, and more). The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing & Content work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/ws-workflow-engine-bridge”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Import: Load AWE JSON into AuthorClaw's automation engine
  2. Enhance: Automatically inject AuthorClaw context into each step
  3. Execute: Run steps sequentially, passing output variables between steps
  4. Route: Use AuthorClaw's smart AI routing per step
  5. Save: Store all outputs in the project workspace
  6. Review: Present results with option to re-run any step

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 47e9570. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ws Workflow Engine Bridge loads about 888 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 270 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~888

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Author Workflow Engine Bridge

Import prompt sequence JSON files from the Author Workflow Engine and execute them as AuthorClaw automations.

What This Does

The Author Workflow Engine (AWE) lets you build multi-step prompt chains — like "research → premise → outline → write chapter 1." This bridge imports those chains and runs them inside AuthorClaw with full access to your book bible, voice profile, and memory.

JSON Schema Expected

json
{
  "name": "Novel Outline Generator",
  "description": "Takes a premise and generates a complete outline",
  "version": "1.0",
  "steps": [
    {
      "id": "step-1",
      "name": "Premise Refinement",
      "prompt": "Take this premise and refine it: {{INPUT}}. Make the stakes personal and the conflict built-in.",
      "model": "auto",
      "temperature": 0.7,
      "outputVariable": "refined_premise"
    },
    {
      "id": "step-2",
      "name": "Character Development",
      "prompt": "Based on this premise: {{refined_premise}}\n\nCreate 3-5 main characters with names, roles, motivations, and flaws.",
      "model": "auto",
      "temperature": 0.8,
      "outputVariable": "characters"
    },
    {
      "id": "step-3",
      "name": "Three-Act Outline",
      "prompt": "Premise: {{refined_premise}}\nCharacters: {{characters}}\n\nCreate a detailed three-act outline with chapter breakdowns.",
      "model": "auto",
      "temperature": 0.7,
      "outputVariable": "outline"
    }
  ],
  "variables": {
    "INPUT": { "type": "user_input", "prompt": "Enter your story premise:" }
  }
}

Execution Process

  1. Import: Load AWE JSON into AuthorClaw's automation engine
  2. Enhance: Automatically inject AuthorClaw context into each step:
    • Book Bible data (characters, locations, timeline)
    • Voice Profile (so output matches author's style)
    • Style Guide rules
    • Active project context
  3. Execute: Run steps sequentially, passing output variables between steps
  4. Route: Use AuthorClaw's smart AI routing per step:
    • "model": "auto" → Let AuthorClaw pick the best provider
    • "model": "creative" → Route to Claude or GPT-4o
    • "model": "fast" → Route to Ollama or Gemini
    • "model": "cheap" → Route to DeepSeek
  5. Save: Store all outputs in the project workspace
  6. Review: Present results with option to re-run any step
