workflows-mcp-server

A declarative workflow library for LLM agents backed by local YAML files. It allows agents to store, list, retrieve, create, and delete named, versioned multi-step playbooks composed of MCP server/tool calls. Edits to YAML files are picked up automatically, supporting both permanent reuse and temporary one-shot runs.
