# Run with output
npm run dev:fullAdding New Prompts
Create a YAML file in prompts/{category}/:
id: my_prompt
name: My Prompt
description: Description
category: productivity
template: |
Your template here with {{variables}}
parameters:
- name: variable
type: string
required: trueAdding New Skills
Create a skill in src/skills/categories/{category}.ts:
export const mySkill: Skill = {
id: "my_skill",
name: "My Skill",
description: "Description",
category: "my_category",
tools: [
{ tool: "tool_name", parameters: {...} }
],
inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: {...} },
outputSchema: { type: "object", properties: {...} }
};Adding New Workflows
Create a workflow in src/workflows/definitions/{name}.ts:
export const myWorkflow: Workflow = {
id: "my_workflow",
name: "My Workflow",
description: "Description",
steps: [
{ id: "step1", type: "tool", name: "Step 1", config: {...} }
]
