Workflow Run

Run and manage a workflow on either surface.

A — MCP workflow lifecycle

When you need to run a persisted definition and control its lifecycle (pause/resume/cancel):

Execute — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_execute or mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_run with the workflow ID
Monitor — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_status to check progress and step outcomes
Pause — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_pause to halt at the current step
Resume — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_resume to continue from where paused
Cancel — call mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__workflow_cancel to abort the workflow

Execution modes: sequential, parallel (independent steps), conditional (branch on outcome), manual gate (pause for human approval).

B — Native `.claude/workflows/*.js`

When you need a deterministic subagent fan-out, run a named native workflow with the Workflow tool. The named workflows are the meta.name of each .claude/workflows/*.js file (list them with /workflow or ls .claude/workflows/).

Workflow({ name: 'plugin-contract-audit' })                    // run a named workflow
Workflow({ name: 'plugin-contract-audit', args: 'ruflo-agentdb' })  // pass args → the script's `args` global
Workflow({ scriptPath: '.claude/workflows/foo.js' })           // run a script by path
Workflow({ scriptPath, resumeFromRunId: 'wf_…' })              // resume — unchanged agent() calls return cached

Notes:

A native workflow runs in the background; you are notified on completion (don't poll). Watch live progress with /workflows.
Pause/resume here is journal-based (resumeFromRunId), not the MCP state machine. Stop a run first, then resume from its runId.
To author a new native workflow, use the workflow-create skill.

See ADR-0002.
