# gh-aw Prompt Surface

This repository builds **gh-aw** (GitHub Agentic Workflows), a GitHub CLI extension for writing workflows in markdown and compiling them to GitHub Actions.
This repository publishes the `agentic-workflows` skill.

For gh-aw workflow design, creation, update, debug, or upgrade tasks, load and
follow `./.github/skills/agentic-workflows/SKILL.md`.

## What this surface does

- Converts markdown workflow specs (`.md`) into compiled lock files (`.lock.yml`)
- Supports multiple AI engines (`copilot`, `claude`, `codex`, `custom`)
- Integrates tools, including GitHub MCP servers and safe-output tooling
- Provides CLI commands to compile, run, inspect, and audit workflows
- Exposes the installable `agentic-workflows` router skill for this repository
- Summarizes the gh-aw repository purpose for first-turn ambient context
- Points task-specific work to the deeper skill files only when needed
