workflow-trellis

workflow-trellis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gnurio/nurijanian-skills. It costs 102 tokens per session (5,167 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for mapping how real work gets done, including obligations, steps, information, dependencies, human decisions, and exceptions. It turns interviews, notes, and other messy evidence into a structured workflow model.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyse customer research or operational processes, find safe places for AI or automation, and assess opportunities for workflow or business software.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from jumping straight to vague ideas about automation without understanding the work first. It makes gaps, repeated manual effort, and risky handoffs easier to see.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

workflow-trellis scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 11d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Workflow Trellis

Use this skill to turn messy workflow evidence into a clear representation of how the work actually functions, what obligation forces it to exist, where the representation is fragmented, and where AI can be inserted safely.

The central thesis: do not start with "AI can automate X." Start by representing the work. Once the obligation, entities, states, deadlines, dependencies, evidence, fragments, and human judgment points are visible, the AI opportunities become obvious and less hand-wavy.

The output should make the workflow visible as an object. Tables are not decoration here; they force the analysis to separate the parts of the work that get blurred in prose. Every deep workflow model must include the required tables, a workflow diagram, an Intuition Gained section, and a Product Implications section.

When Starting

If the user provides interviews, transcripts, notes, support tickets, customer research, or a domain description, treat that material as evidence. Extract workflows from it rather than brainstorming from scratch.

Ask at most three clarifying questions only when the answer materially changes the representation:

  1. Which workflow or user segment should be modeled first?
  2. Is the goal product strategy, AI feature design, customer discovery, or startup exploration?
  3. Should the output favor breadth across many workflows or depth on one workflow?

If the user sounds like they want momentum, skip questions and state assumptions.

Core Lens

Analyze workflows through three gates:

  1. Durable obligation: The work must exist because law, money, customers, operations, professional standards, auditability, or accountability demand it.
  2. Fragmented representation: The truth of the work must be split across spreadsheets, emails, PDFs, bank portals, desktop apps, messages, forms, humans, vendors, customers, or legacy systems.
  3. Hated execution burden: The recurring work must be tedious, anxiety-producing, deadline-bound, error-prone, or socially annoying enough that users already complain about it.
