What cli-anything-dify-workflow does

The skill gives an agent command groups for Dify files: create, inspect, validate, edit, config, export, import, diff, layout. All of it runs against local YAML and JSON. Nothing is pushed to a Dify instance.

It is a wrapper, not the engine. The real logic lives in the dify-ai-workflow-tools package pulled from a git URL, so that has to be in place first. The wrapper calls the dify-workflow binary; if the binary is missing from PATH but the dify_workflow package exists, it falls back to python -m dify_workflow.cli. That fallback is your clue when every command fails at once.

Ask for -j and the output arrives as JSON, which the agent reads more reliably than prose. The checklist group tells you what a file still lacks. Edits go through edit add-node, remove-node, add-edge, and a node of type code drops into an existing workflow without opening the Dify editor.

What it helps with

  • scaffold a workflow file from the llm template
  • validate YAML before importing into Dify
  • insert a code node into an existing workflow
  • switch the model in app.yaml
  • diff two versions of the DSL

Example prompts for the agent

  • Scaffold a workflow from the template: `cli-anything-dify-workflow create -o workflow.yaml --mode workflow --template llm`
  • Check `workflow.yaml` and show me the errors as JSON: `cli-anything-dify-workflow validate workflow.yaml -j`
  • Add a `code` node titled Process to `workflow.yaml`: `cli-anything-dify-workflow edit add-node -f workflow.yaml --type code --title "Process"`

# Dify Workflow CLI Skill

## Installation

Install the upstream Dify workflow CLI first:

```bash
python -m pip install "dify-ai-workflow-tools @ git+https://github.com/Akabane71/dify-workflow-cli.git@main"
```

Then install the CLI-Anything harness:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/HKUDS/CLI-Anything.git#subdirectory=dify-workflow/agent-harness
```

## Usage

The harness forwards to the upstream `dify-workflow` CLI.

```bash
cli-anything-dify-workflow guide
cli-anything-dify-workflow list-node-types
cli-anything-dify-workflow create -o workflow.yaml --mode workflow --template llm
cli-anything-dify-workflow inspect workflow.yaml -j
cli-anything-dify-workflow validate workflow.yaml -j
cli-anything-dify-workflow edit add-node -f workflow.yaml --type code --title "Process"
cli-anything-dify-workflow config set-model -f app.yaml --provider openai --name gpt-4o
```

## Command Groups

- `guide`
- `list-node-types`
- `create`
- `inspect`
- `validate`
- `checklist`
- `edit add-node|remove-node|update-node|add-edge|remove-edge|set-title`
- `config set-model|set-prompt|add-variable|set-opening|add-question|add-tool|remove-tool`
- `export`
- `import`
- `diff`
- `layout`

## Agent Guidance

- Prefer `-j` / `--json-output` on upstream commands when available.
- The harness itself is a wrapper. Real workflow logic is provided by the upstream project.
- If `dify-workflow` is not on PATH but the `dify_workflow` Python package is installed, the wrapper falls back to `python -m dify_workflow.cli`.
- All operations are local file edits on Dify YAML/JSON DSL files.
