AutoFlow v2.0.0

Complete rewrite in Rust. 3.1 MB single EXE — no Python, no runtime, no install.

What's new

  • F9 global hotkey — start/stop recording from any application
  • Smart window-ready check in playback — waits for windows before clicking
  • AI step naming via local Ollama (qwen3:8b)
  • Task Scheduler export — ⏰ Schedule produces a Windows Task XML + script ZIP
  • Run Workflow step — chain workflows recursively
  • Two-click delete confirmation — no accidental deletes
  • HUD overlay hides instantly when the last browser tab closes
  • Region screenshot thumbnails with red target-circle annotation
  • axum 0.7 + tokio backend; rust-embed bundles all assets into the EXE

All notable changes to AutoFlow are documented here.

[1.0.0] — 2026-07-21

Initial public release.

Core features

  • Record mouse clicks, keystrokes, hotkeys, and scroll events across any Windows application
  • Smart cleanup on recording stop: consecutive scrolls merged, navigational preamble collapsed, duplicate waits removed
  • Instant thumbnails — per-click screenshots captured immediately; element detection runs in background
  • UI Automation element detection with CDP (Chrome accessibility) and win32 fallbacks
  • Image-based click matching for browser targets without accessibility APIs

Editing

  • Card view (with drag-and-drop reorder) and compact table view
  • Full edit modal for all step types
  • Disable steps — skip without deleting; shows struck-through in exports
  • Undo delete — Ctrl+Z restores last deleted step (up to 10 deep)
  • Per-step notes — inline annotation area on every card; shows in PDF export
  • Unsaved indicator — Save button pulses blue; title shows ● when edits are pending
  • Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+R record, Ctrl+P play, Ctrl+S save, Esc stop, Ctrl+Z undo delete

Step types (21 total)

Click, Type, Hotkey, Wait, Scroll, Navigate, Loop, If/Else, Set Variable, Run Script, Comment,
Error Handler, Launch Browser, Show Message, Wait for Element, Wait for Window, Get/Set Clipboard,
Image Click, Read/Write/Copy/Move/Delete File, HTTP Request, Open File/App, Kill Process,
Close Window, Play Sound, Screenshot

Playback

  • Start from any step; step-through mode; adjustable speed (0.25×–4×)
  • Three-level click fallback: UI element → window-relative offset → absolute coords
  • wait_for_window uses case-insensitive substring matching
  • open_file falls back to cmd /c start for App Paths–registered apps (Excel, Word, etc.)

Export

  • PDF report — steps, notes, screenshots; usable as a walkthrough or SOP
  • Python script — standalone pyautogui script, all step types supported
  • ZIP package — script + run.bat launcher + requirements.txt

Infrastructure

  • Flask + Socket.IO backend; single-file EXE via PyInstaller
  • System tray with minimize, reopen, record-new, and replay-last shortcuts
  • Win32 recording HUD: dim overlay + floating status panel that follows your cursor across monitors
  • Workflows stored as portable JSON files
  • Settings (screenshot capture mode) in browser localStorage — no files written
  • Single-instance mutex guard
