How to read the output
The spec
Trigger, conditions, actions, and edge cases — concrete enough for a RevOps admin to build without asking you anything.
Clarifying questions
When the description is ambiguous, the specific questions that must be answered before it is buildable.
Ambiguity gate
Surfaces the gaps instead of guessing around them — an ambiguous ask produces questions, not a wrong spec.
The terms it uses
- Workflow spec
- An implementation-ready definition: the event that starts it, the if-logic, the actions, and what breaks it.
- Ambiguity gate
- Fires when the process is unclear — it asks rather than inventing the missing pieces.
How it stays honest
Every agent separates what it measured from your data from what it inferred. You always know which is which.
Measured
- ✓Process description + platform (as provided)
- ✓Ambiguity + readiness (computed)
Inferred
- ~Trigger/conditions/actions
- ~Edge cases
- ~Clarifying questions
Questions people ask
What if my description is vague?+
It returns the clarifying questions instead of a guessed spec — building on a guess produces a broken automation.
