07The pipeline is a fileAn llm pipeline is a graph of model calls, tools and processes. A graph is declared, not programmed: forty lines of YAML replace the orchestration framework. Diffable, auditable, replayable.06The generative ai workflow, minus the mysteryStrip the buzzword and a generative ai workflow is three things: inputs you name, a model step, and effects you can point to. Declare all three in one file and the mystery evaporates. Rehearsed offline, every asset with provenance.05The agent workflow spectrumAn ai agent workflow is any pipeline where a model chooses some of the steps. Every design sits between a declared graph and a free loop. Where yours lands decides which safety you can even ask for.04Prompts are code nowPrompt versioning without a platform: the prompt lives in the workflow file, so git diffs it, a PR reviews it, git reverts it. The engine itself names an edited prompt when two runs diverge.03Anatomy of a verbinfer, exec, invoke, agent: what makes the four verbs genuinely different execution models, in the engine's own verdicts.02Four verbs are enoughA verb is a distinct execution model, not a feature. Why the language locks at four, forever.01A standard library, not a plugin store28 builtins in the binary, allow-listed, nothing to install. The library grows, the language holds still.
