One assembled pipeline
Direct Build
Move from source to target without creating a Workflow Brief. Review checkpoints still apply.
Build directly from a paper, interview, Nextflow pipeline, or CWL workflow. For paper,
interview, and Nextflow sources, you can instead create a Workflow Brief first, review it
with an expert, and build from the agreed plan. Every route decomposes the work into atomic,
schema-validated steps grounded in
gxwf's static validation.
Choose Direct Build when you want source-to-target work in one pipeline. Choose Plan & Build when you want a separate, durable Workflow Brief that an expert can review and edit before implementation.

Create a Workflow Brief, refine it with an expert, then build from the agreed plan.
The Foundry keeps workflow-construction knowledge as inspectable notes: patterns, research, CLI docs, schemas, and best practices. Molds turn that rich source record into statically validated cast artifacts, so agents can load portable generated skills without losing the trail back to the documented reasoning.
