## Important Notes

- Always reference the instructions file at https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/v0.71.5/.github/aw/github-agentic-workflows.md for complete documentation

- Always reference the instructions file at `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/.github/aw/github-agentic-workflows.md` for complete documentation
189
219
- Use the MCP tool `agentic-workflows` when running in GitHub Copilot Cloud
190
220
- Workflows must be compiled to `.lock.yml` files before running in GitHub Actions
191
221
-**Bash tools are enabled by default** - Don't restrict bash commands unnecessarily since workflows are sandboxed by the AWF
192
222
- Follow security best practices: minimal permissions, explicit network access, no template injection
193
-
-**Network configuration**: Use ecosystem identifiers (`node`, `python`, `go`, etc.) or explicit FQDNs in `network.allowed`. Bare shorthands like `npm` or `pypi` are **not** valid. See https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/v0.71.5/.github/aw/network.md for the full list of valid ecosystem identifiers and domain patterns.

194
224
-**Single-file output**: When creating a workflow, produce exactly **one** workflow `.md` file. Do not create separate documentation files (architecture docs, runbooks, usage guides, etc.). If documentation is needed, add a brief `## Usage` section inside the workflow file itself.
195
225
-**Triggering runs**: Always use `gh aw run <workflow-name>` to trigger a workflow on demand — not `gh workflow run <file>.lock.yml`. `gh aw run` handles workflow resolution by short name, input parsing and validation, and correct run-tracking for agentic workflows. Use `--ref <branch>` to run on a specific branch.

-**CLI commands reference**: For a complete guide on all `gh aw` commands and their MCP tool equivalents (for restricted environments), see https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/v0.71.5/.github/aw/cli-commands.md

# Agentic Workflows Router
7
+
8
+
Use this skill when a user asks to design, create, update, debug, or upgrade GitHub Agentic Workflows in this repository.
9
+
10
+
This skill is a dispatcher: identify the task type, load the matching workflow prompt/skill file, and follow it directly. Keep responses concise and ask a clarifying question if the correct prompt is unclear.
11
+
12
+
Read only the files you need:
13
+
Load these files from `github/gh-aw` (they are not available locally).
- Map CLI commands to MCP usage: `.github/aw/cli-commands.md`
77
+
- Choose workflow architecture and patterns: `.github/aw/patterns.md`
78
+
- Optimize token usage and cost: `.github/aw/token-optimization.md`
79
+
80
+
When the task involves OTEL, OTLP, traces, observability backends, or telemetry-driven analysis, also read and follow `skills/otel-queries/SKILL.md` after loading the matching workflow prompt or skill.
