How2useLiteFlow

English | 中文

An Agent Skill that helps AI use LiteFlow (v2.16.X) correctly — a lightweight Java rule engine / business orchestration framework. It bundles usage and source-level details distilled from the official docs and source code (components, EL rules, context, script components, rule sources, executor, AI Agent orchestration, testing & debugging, internals), and enforces a strict "what to do when the answer isn't covered" workflow — never fabricate, never pass web content off as LiteFlow's actual behavior.

Install

One-line install via the skills CLI:

npx skills add bryan31/How2useLiteFlow

Optional flags:

# global (user-level) install, target a specific agent, skip confirmation
npx skills add bryan31/How2useLiteFlow@how2useliteflow -g -a claude-code -y

The entire skill directory (including references/ and scripts/) is copied into your agent's config directory — no extra setup needed.

How it works

Just install this skill — nothing else to configure. It can answer any LiteFlow question through a layered strategy:

1. Distilled knowledge (covers ~90%) — a built-in quick-reference plus topic-by-topic reference docs (references/), distilled from LiteFlow's official documentation and source code. The vast majority of questions — EL operators, component types, the execution API, config keys, internals — are answered directly from these, with no network access and no extra setup.
2. Source-code fallback — for the rare deep or obscure question the distilled knowledge doesn't cover, the skill reads the actual LiteFlow source: it first looks for a local LiteFlow repo, and otherwise (with your consent) clones the official repo, then answers with exact path:line citations.
3. Never fabricate — if something can't be confirmed from the references or the source, the skill says so plainly instead of guessing or passing web content off as LiteFlow's behavior.

Net effect: install the skill, and your AI can reliably answer LiteFlow questions — from everyday usage all the way down to source-level internals.

How it triggers

The skill activates automatically when you mention anything LiteFlow-related (components, EL rules, context, script components, rule sources, executor, ReAct Agent orchestration, testing, source internals, etc.).
