The open-source workflow catalog behind Agentic Software Development.

Each .mdx file under workflows/ is a copy-pasteable orchestration recipe for AI coding agents — Ralph, Spec Kit, PIV Loop, AGENTS.md, Antfarm, and 30+ others. The site at agenticpatterns.io renders these into card-grid + detail pages with an "Open in ChatGPT / Claude" menu.

A workflow is a reusable orchestration pattern for AI coding agents — a recipe you can copy into your LLM of choice. Categorized by tier:

• snippet — small paste-able pattern; no install, no scaffolding
• framework — needs scaffolding (files / skills / CLI) installed into your agent
• tool — commits to a specific tool or product (open- or closed-source)

A typical reference-mode workflow MDX (pointing to vendor docs):

setup_command: |
  pip install openai-agents
when_to_use: Specialist should own the next turn, not just help in the background.
when_not_to_use: When you need a single observable trace through one agent.

1. You PR a new .mdx under workflows/
2. The frontmatter-validator Action runs on the PR — blocks merge on schema violations
3. Maintainer reviews and merges
4. A GitHub Action POSTs to the agenticpatterns.io deploy hook
5. The site rebuilds (~90s) — your workflow is live with a detail page, an LLMs ▾ menu, and cross-links into the knowledge base

End-to-end: PR merge → live on site in under 2 minutes.
