Define workflows as code

YAML-defined workflows with built-in retry, timeout, and rollback. No more shell scripts.

  • Step-by-step orchestration with dependency resolution
  • Built-in retry and timeout policies
  • Automatic rollback on failure
  • Human approval gates for critical steps

Three primitives. Any pipeline.

Every workflow — from a simple dev-cycle to enterprise compliance — is composed from just three building blocks.

builtin:shell

Run any command — agent invocations, build scripts, API calls, notifications. The universal execution primitive.

builtin:gate

Automatic decision point. Routes the pipeline based on step output: continue, fail, or rework loop with max iterations.

builtin:approval

Human-in-the-loop checkpoint. Pauses the pipeline until a person approves or rejects — with optional Slack notifications.

Why teams choose workflows

Core advantages of the KB Labs workflow engine.

Declarative

Define what, not how. YAML workflows are readable, reviewable, and version-controlled.

Observable

Real-time execution dashboard with structured logs, timing data, and decision audit trails.

Composable

Build complex flows from simple, reusable steps. Share patterns across teams.
