2 things to look at

no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Install and configure Vercel Workflow DevKit before it exists in node_modules. Use when the user asks to "install workflow", "set up workflow", "add durable workflows", "configure workflow devkit", or "init workflow" for Next.js, Express, Hono, Fastify, NestJS, Nitro, Nuxt, Astro, SvelteKit, or Vite.

workflow-init

Initial setup of Vercel Workflow DevKit before workflow is installed. Fetch the official getting-started guide for the user's framework.

Decision Flow

0) Sanity check

Read package.json. If workflow is already a dependency, tell the user to use /workflow instead (it reads versioned docs from node_modules/workflow/docs/). Only continue if workflow is missing.

1) Determine the framework

Non-interactive: If the user named a framework in their prompt, use it directly.

Auto-detect: Inspect package.json deps and config files. Use the first match:

Next.js - next dep or next.config.*
Nuxt - nuxt dep or nuxt.config.*
SvelteKit - @sveltejs/kit dep or svelte.config.*
Astro - astro dep or astro.config.*
NestJS - @nestjs/core dep or nest-cli.json
Nitro - nitro dep or nitro.config.*
Express - express dep
Fastify - fastify dep
Hono - hono dep
Vite - vite dep (and not matched above)

If no match or multiple matches, ask the user to pick.

2) Fetch and follow the getting-started guide

Fetch exactly one of these URLs and follow the guide step-by-step:

Framework	URL
Next.js	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/next
Express	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/express
Hono	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/hono
Fastify	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/fastify
NestJS	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/nestjs
Nitro	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/nitro
Nuxt	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/nuxt
Astro	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/astro
SvelteKit	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/sveltekit
Vite	https://useworkflow.dev/docs/getting-started/vite

Each guide covers: install deps, configure framework, create first workflow, create route handler, run + verify.

3) Verify setup

Start the dev server per the guide.
Trigger the example endpoint with the provided curl.
Confirm logs show the workflow and steps executing.
Optional: npx workflow web or npx workflow inspect runs.

4) No framework yet?

If no framework exists, ask what the user wants:

Web app: Next.js / Nuxt / SvelteKit / Astro
API server: Express / Fastify / Hono
Minimal server: Nitro or Vite

Then follow the "Create Your Project" section of the chosen guide.

Concept questions (pre-install)

If the user asks conceptual questions before installing, fetch:

Handoff

When setup is complete, tell the user: Use /workflow for ongoing development - it reads the versioned docs bundled in node_modules/workflow/docs/.
