What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Takes a manual business workflow description and designs the automated version. Maps current steps, handoffs, decision points, and bottlenecks. Designs automated flow with triggers, conditions, actions, and error handling. Outputs workflow-automation.md with before/after Mermaid diagrams, tool recommendations, implementation steps, and time savings estimate.

Workflow Automator
Transform a manual business workflow into an optimized automated system: map how work gets done today, then design a complete automated replacement with triggers, conditions, actions, branching, and error handling. Deliver a comprehensive workflow-automation.md.

Workflow
- Intake. Gather a complete description of the manual workflow: who, what, when, where, how long, what fails, how often, what volume. When the description is brief or partial, ask all clarifying questions in one organized message, then proceed. See
references/intake.md. - Map the current state. Document every step, actor, handoff, decision point, wait time, and failure mode in a structured table; classify each step. See
references/analysis-framework.md. - Identify pain points. Score each step on automation potential, impact, and risk. Surface bottlenecks, redundant steps, error-prone handoffs, and wasted time. See
references/analysis-framework.md. - Design the automated flow. Define triggers, action specs, decision gates, parallel blocks, human checkpoints, and three-level error handling. See
references/automation-design.md. - Recommend tools. Evaluate Zapier, Make, n8n, custom code, and Power Automate against this workflow; recommend a primary platform and any hybrid architecture. See
references/tool-recommendations.md. - Estimate impact. Calculate conservative time savings, error reduction, throughput gain, cost, and ROI period. See
references/diagram-and-estimation-standards.md. - Deliver. Generate the full
workflow-automation.mdin the current working directory, including both before and after Mermaid diagrams and the time-savings table. Seereferences/output-template.mdandreferences/diagram-and-estimation-standards.md.
Output Rules
- Always generate the full document, not a summary or abbreviated version. Make it self-contained enough to implement from alone.
- Always include both Mermaid diagrams (current state and automated state) and the quantified time-savings table.
- Use no emojis anywhere in the output.
Quality Checklist
Before delivering, verify:
- Every manual step is mapped
- Every decision point has explicit logic
- Every handoff is analyzed
- The automated flow handles all identified failure modes
- Error handling exists at step, flow, and system levels
- Human-in-the-loop checkpoints exist for high-risk decisions
- Tool recommendations are justified with specific criteria
- Time savings estimates are conservative and show the math
- Cost analysis includes all ongoing costs
- Implementation is phased with quick wins first
- Both Mermaid diagrams render correctly
- The document is self-contained and actionable
- No emojis are used anywhere in the output

Grouped from the skills themselves: near-identical wordings counted once, and counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once. Length counted with cl100k_base; the agent that loads this file may tokenize it differently.
