workflowsOrchestrates multi-agent work with OpenPI's inline JavaScript Workflow DSL.
Workflows is an agent skill from openpi-dev/openpi. Orchestrates multi-agent work with OpenPI's inline JavaScript Workflow DSL. Use when a task needs multi-phase fan-out, pipelines, barriers, structured handoffs, or resumable background orchestration.
Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `EXAMPLES.md` and `REFERENCE.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Multi-agent orchestration. It works with JavaScript. The repository describes itself as: The setup I use for pi. Changes a ton, don't recommend hard copying it, just a taste of what's possible with it. The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3cb2ecf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are javascript).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Workflows loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 241 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

mweinbach/agent-coworker
Author and run a deterministic multi-agent workflow — a JavaScript script that fans out, pipelines, loops, and judges across many child agents.
stablyai/orca

getpaseo/paseo
Launches one separate agent through Paseo to give a second opinion on the current task, with a self-contained briefing and no permission to edit files.
openobserve/openobserve
Splits a change into planner, coder and independent reviewer roles: you confirm a spec, a subagent implements it, and a separate reviewer checks each round's local WIP commit.
getpaseo/paseo
Forms a two-agent committee with contrasting profiles to analyze a stuck problem in parallel, reconcile their views and return a consensus plan without editing files.
openpi-dev/openpi
Run and manage long-lived shell commands in background terminals.
openpi-dev/openpi
Invoke this skill when the user asks to use subagents or when a substantial, self-contained task can run independently in the background.

Orchestrates multi-agent work with OpenPI's inline JavaScript Workflow DSL. Workflows is an agent skill from openpi-dev/openpi. Orchestrates multi-agent work with OpenPI's inline JavaScript Workflow DSL.
Workflows fits situations like: A task needs multi-phase fan-out; structured handoffs; resumable background orchestration.
Run `npx skills add openpi-dev/openpi --skill workflows -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/workflows in openpi-dev/openpi) into .claude/skills/workflows in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add openpi-dev/openpi --skill workflows -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/workflows in openpi-dev/openpi) into .agents/skills/workflows in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add openpi-dev/openpi --skill workflows -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/workflows, .gemini/skills/workflows, .github/skills/workflows and .opencode/skills/workflows in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Workflows is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Workflows is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Workflows: Open Dynamic Workflows (xz1220/open-dynamic-workflows, 104 stars), Workflow (mweinbach/agent-coworker, 156 stars), Orca CLI (stablyai/orca, 87k stars) and Paseo Advisor Second Opinion (getpaseo/paseo, 20k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
