Helps design AI agent workflows visually on a canvas and exports them as Markdown for agents like Claude Code and Cursor to understand.
CC Workflow Studio
Preview
What you can do with it
- Visually design a multi-step prompt for Claude Code to generate a new feature.
- Create and export a series of commands for Cursor to refactor a codebase.
- Share complex AI agent workflows with team members in an easily understandable format.
Safety check
Usable, but read the notes first.
- ●No clear license: check with the author before using it in a commercial product.
Automated scan of the repo files. Always review code you run.
From the README
CC Workflow Studio
You think visually. AI thinks in .md. CC Workflow Studio speaks both.
Design workflows on a canvas. Export as Markdown your AI agent already understands. No more prompt-guessing.

Supported Agents
| Agent | Export Format | Requires |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | .claude/agents/ .claude/commands/ | Claude Code |
| GitHub Copilot Chat | .github/prompts/ | Copilot Chat |
| GitHub Copilot CLI | .github/skills/ | Copilot CLI |
| OpenAI Codex CLI | .codex/skills/ | Codex CLI |
| Zoo Code (formerly Roo Code) | .roo/skills/ | Zoo Code |
| Gemini CLI | .gemini/skills/ | Gemini CLI |
| Antigravity | .agent/skills/ | Antigravity |
| Cursor | .cursor/agents/ .cursor/skills/ | Cursor |
Note: Agents other than Claude Code require activation from Toolbar's More menu.
Use it without VSCode, too
The VSCode extension is the most ergonomic editor, but it isn't the only entry point. The same workflow.json drives a CLI and an MCP server — pick whichever interface fits the situation.

| Interface | Try it | Best for | Docs |
|---|---|---|---|
| VSCode extension | code --install-extension breaking-brake.cc-wf-studio | Designing workflows visually | packages/vscode |
CLI (ccwf) | npx @cc-wf-studio/cli --help | Terminal / CI / SSH / Codespaces — render, validate, preview, export, run a workflow without VSCode | packages/cli |
MCP server (ccwf-mcp) | Add to your MCP client's .mcp.json so Claude Code (or any MCP client) can read and edit workflows over stdio | Letting an external AI client read and edit your workflows through MCP tools | packages/mcp |
There is no "VSCode-only" path: a workflow you draw in the canvas is the same file ccwf preview will render in a browser, and the same file an external Claude Code can edit through MCP.
✨ Edit with AI: AI agents (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, etc.) create workflows through natural language via MCP Server
▶️ Run workflows directly from the editor – See your AI automation in action instantly
Key Features
🔀 Visual Workflow Editor - Intuitive drag-and-drop canvas for designing AI agent orchestrations without code
🤖 Agentic Engineering - Design multi-agent workflows with Sub-Agent orchestration, Agent Skills, and MCP tool integration — the building blocks of agentic engineering
✨ Edit with AI - Iteratively improve workflows through conversational AI - ask for changes, add features, or refine logic with natural language feedback
⚡ One-Click Export & Run - Export workflows to ready-to-use formats and run directly from the editor
How to Use
Launch the Extension
- Click the icon in the top-right corner of the editor
- Or: Command Palette (
Cmd+Shift+P) → "CC Workflow Studio: Open Editor"
Create a Workflow
- Add nodes from the palette and configure their settings, or use Edit with AI.
Save & Load
- Click Save button in the toolbar to store your workflow as
.vscode/workflows/*.json - Click Load button in the toolbar to open a saved
.jsonworkflow
Export & Run
- Click Export button in the toolbar to create a
.mdslash command or agent skill (use/workflow-namein AI coding agents) - Click Run button in the toolbar to run your workflow directly in AI coding agents
Edit with AI
- Click Edit with AI button in the toolbar to generate or refine workflows with natural language
- Native with MCP Server: Click an AI agent button in the Edit with AI panel to launch native AI editing. The MCP server starts automatically behind the scenes.
