What workflow does

This skill focuses on Notion App workflows. It guides work with typed triggers, steps that can safely run again, and idempotent effects. Before creating, editing, or troubleshooting workflow code, read node_modules/@notionhq/apps/skills/workflow/SKILL.md, resolving the path from the App project root.

If that file is absent, install the project dependencies. If it still cannot be found, update @notionhq/apps to a release that contains the skill. Workflow changes must wait until the SDK guidance is readable, so check that file before editing. The skill supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode.

What it helps with

  • create a Notion App workflow with typed triggers
  • check whether workflow steps tolerate replay
  • troubleshoot errors in workflow code
  • locate SDK guidance before changing a workflow

Example prompts for the agent

  • Create a Notion App workflow with a typed trigger and an idempotent effect.
  • Review whether these workflow steps are safe to run again.
  • Troubleshoot this workflow and first check node_modules/@notionhq/apps/skills/workflow/SKILL.md.

Questions about workflow

How do I install workflow in Claude Code?

Run npx skills add makenotion/notion-cookbook --skill workflow -a claude-code. The skill file is placed at ~/.claude/skills/workflow/SKILL.md.

What does the workflow skill do?

It helps build and review Notion App workflows, including typed triggers, replay-safe steps, and idempotent effects. It requires the project’s SDK guidance before workflow code is changed.

What if the SDK guidance file is missing?

Install the project dependencies first. If node_modules/@notionhq/apps/skills/workflow/SKILL.md is still missing, update @notionhq/apps to a release that includes the skill; do not change workflow code until you can read the guide.
