Conductor is an open-source platform for running microservice, AI-agent, and adaptive workflows as durable execution graphs, preserving steps and decisions so runs can be inspected and resumed. It is for developers who need workflows to survive failures, support branching, retries, approvals, tool calls, and cancellation. The catalogue entries provide agent and instruction integrations for working with Conductor.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00662 | $0.00662 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00265 | $0.00265 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00132 | $0.00132 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00066 | $0.00066 |
Grade A, and why
conductor CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
Concrete reason this matters: a curl equivalent for `conductor workflow start --sync` was once written as `POST /api/workflow/{name}/run` — an endpoint that does not exist. Opening `WorkflowResource.java` first would hav How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Writing Documentation
Documentation in this project is derived from source, not composed from memory or intuition. The workflow is: open the source → read what's there → write the doc from what you find. The source is the spec; the doc is a rendering of it.
Concrete reason this matters: a curl equivalent for conductor workflow start --sync was once written as POST /api/workflow/{name}/run — an endpoint that does not exist. Opening WorkflowResource.java first would have given the correct path (POST /api/workflow/execute/{name}/{version}) immediately.
For each content type, start here
REST endpoint or curl example
- Open the controller:
rest/src/main/java/com/netflix/conductor/rest/controllers/ - Find the method by its
@PostMapping/@GetMappingannotation — copy the path literally. - Read the method signature for query params, path variables, and request body.
- Write the curl from what you just read.
CLI command or flag
- Open
conductor-cli/cmd/*.go(separate repo under this workspace). - Find the
cobra.Commandfor the subcommand and read itsFlags()declarations. - Write the example from what you just read — flag names, types, and defaults.
SDK code example (Python, JS, Java, Go)
- Open the SDK source file for the method you're documenting.
- Read the method signature and required parameters.
- If a working test exists for that method, use it as the starting point.
- Write from the signature — do not infer from the method name alone.
Expected output block
- Get real output: run the command, or find it in test fixtures or CI logs.
- Paste verbatim. Do not construct output that "looks right."
- For variable fields (IDs, timestamps), use annotated placeholders like
<workflow-id>.
Editing an existing section
- Before changing anything, read every code block and command in the section.
- Verify each one using the steps above, not just the block you plan to change.
- Fix anything you find while you're there.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

conductor CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository conductor-oss/conductor (32,431 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 662 tokens to every session, about $0.0026 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
