Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00105 | $0.02469 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00042 | $0.00988 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00494 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00247 |
Grade A, and why
automation-workflows 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to automation-workflows — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Automation Workflows
Overview
As a solopreneur, your time is your most valuable asset. Automation lets you scale without hiring. The goal is simple: automate anything you do more than twice a week that doesn't require creative thinking. This playbook shows you how to identify automation opportunities, design workflows, and implement them without writing code.
Step 1: Identify What to Automate
Not every task should be automated. Start by finding the highest-value opportunities.
Automation audit (spend 1 hour on this):
-
Track every task you do for a week (use a notebook or simple spreadsheet)
-
For each task, note:
- How long it takes
- How often you do it (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Whether it's repetitive or requires judgment
-
Calculate time cost per task:
Time Cost = (Minutes per task × Frequency per month) / 60Example: 15 min task done 20x/month = 5 hours/month
-
Sort by time cost (highest to lowest)
Good candidates for automation:
- Repetitive (same steps every time)
- Rule-based (no complex judgment calls)
- High-frequency (daily or weekly)
- Time-consuming (takes 10+ minutes)
Examples:
- ✅ Sending weekly reports to clients (same format, same schedule)
- ✅ Creating invoices after payment
- ✅ Adding new leads to CRM from form submissions
- ✅ Posting social media content on a schedule
- ❌ Conducting customer discovery interviews (requires nuance)
- ❌ Writing custom proposals for clients (requires creativity)
Low-hanging fruit checklist (start here):
- Email notifications for form submissions
- Auto-save form responses to spreadsheet
- Schedule social posts in advance
- Auto-create invoices from payment confirmations
- Sync data between tools (CRM ↔ email tool ↔ spreadsheet)
Step 2: Choose Your Automation Tool
Three main options for no-code automation. Pick based on complexity and budget.
Tool comparison:
| Tool | Best For | Pricing | Learning Curve | Power Level |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zapier | Simple, 2-3 step workflows | $20-50/month | Easy | Low-Medium |
| Make (Integromat) | Visual, multi-step workflows | $9-30/month | Medium | Medium-High |
| n8n | Complex, developer-friendly, self-hosted | Free (self-hosted) or $20/month | Medium-Hard | High |
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

automation-workflows is a skill published in the GitHub repository MerkyorLynn/Lynn (63 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 105 tokens to every session and 2,469 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to automation-workflows, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.

batch
Execute batch operations on multiple files in parallel. Automatically discovers files, splits into chunks, and processes with parallel worker agents. Use /batch followed by operation and file pattern. For many independent single-turn transforms (translate/rewrite/extract each file into a new file) that can wait…
batch-api
Prepare a many-file, single-turn transform (translate, rewrite, extract) as a plan and submit it to the asynchronous, half-price DashScope Batch API; results are delivered as new files hours later. Invoke explicitly with /batch-api.
loop
Create a loop that runs a prompt now and follows up either on a fixed schedule or through self-paced wakeups. Usage - /loop check the build, /loop 5m check the build, /loop check the PR every 30m. /loop list to show jobs, /loop clear to cancel all.
session-reader
Summarize Mux session folders into a clean markdown report. Use when you need fast context at task start, want to review tool calls, delegated agents, artifacts, or outcomes across one or more sessions.
cua-driver
Drive a native GUI app (macOS, Windows, Linux) via the Qwen Cua Driver CLI (default) or MCP server; snapshot its accessibility tree, act through snapshot-bound element tokens, native menu paths, exact window geometry, or pixel coordinates, and verify from fresh state. Use when the user asks you to operate, drive…
autofix-pr
Watch a pull request and fix it from a worktree of its own - CI failures, review feedback from trusted authors and merge conflicts are fixed, pushed to the PR branch and answered on the PR under the user's git and gh identity.
