Workflow builder
Define the routine
Start by writing the job in plain language.
The routine should answer one question: what should CLEA do again later?
Do not start with automation. Start with the work. If the work is useful once, then you can decide whether it should become a workflow.
Reference files and folders
Workflows become stronger when they reference real workspace context.
That can be a workflow file, sitemap file, brand note, report, or hidden dashboard context file that CLEA can read.
Set expected output
Tell CLEA what to return.
This is the most important part. A workflow without an output becomes a vague chat. A workflow with a clear output can become a report, table, suggestion card, or page brief.
Define the routine
Write what CLEA should inspect.
Reference files
Add workflow, sitemap, or source files when needed.
Set output
Tell CLEA what to return.
Test manually
Run once before scheduling.
Choose trigger and schedule
A workflow can start from manual chat or from the calendar.
Try it manually first. If the result is useful, schedule it. If the result is weak, fix the file before scheduling it.
Inspect the result
Read the output before trusting it.
Check the evidence, the reasoning, and the suggested action. If a workflow creates a card or page task, make sure the action is supported.
Workflow builder
A strong workflow has a narrow routine, clear files, a trigger, and one expected output.
Reuse the workflow
Reuse is the reward for writing the workflow well.
Once the workflow is clear, a future prompt can simply say `complete @weekly source review`. The detailed steps stay in the file.
