# `hub.yml` reference
|
|
|
|
A configuration has `environments` and `triggers`. Execution fields belong to each trigger's `steps`.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
environments:
|
|
- name: development
|
|
kind: daemon
|
|
daemon: my-macbook
|
|
cwd: /Users/you/code/project
|
|
|
|
triggers:
|
|
- name: request
|
|
on: manual.run
|
|
max_runtime: 2h
|
|
filters:
|
|
from_users: [automation]
|
|
steps:
|
|
- id: work
|
|
environment: development
|
|
max_runtime: 90m
|
|
idle_timeout: 10m
|
|
agent:
|
|
provider: codex
|
|
mode: full-access
|
|
prompt:
|
|
- text: ${{ paseo.prompt }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Environments
|
|
|
|
| Field | Required | Notes |
|
|
| ---------- | ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `name` | yes | Lowercase identifier referenced by a step. |
|
|
| `kind` | yes | `daemon`, `fly`, or `docker` in the authored schema; workflow steps must resolve to a daemon environment. |
|
|
| `daemon` | daemon only | Daemon name, resolved when the revision activates. |
|
|
| `cwd` | daemon only | Absolute path on the daemon. |
|
|
| `image` | fly/docker | Image name. |
|
|
| `worktree` | no | `branch-off`, `checkout-branch`, or `checkout-pr` target. |
|
|
|
|
The `worktree` object is part of the environment. Its fields are exact authored names: `newBranch` and optional `base` for `branch-off`, `branch` for `checkout-branch`, and positive integer `prNumber` for `checkout-pr`.
|
|
|
|
## Triggers
|
|
|
|
| Field | Required | Notes |
|
|
| ------------- | ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `name` | yes | Lowercase identifier, unique in the configuration. |
|
|
| `on` | yes | `provider.event`, such as `slack.mention` or `manual.run`. |
|
|
| `max_runtime` | yes | Positive duration for the complete trigger run, up to 24h. |
|
|
| `filters` | no in schema | Provider filters; externally sourced triggers still require a non-empty `from_users` allowlist. |
|
|
| `inputs` | no | Typed leading `key=value` invocation headers. |
|
|
| `values` | no | Derived expressions. |
|
|
| `steps` | yes | One or more ordered steps. |
|
|
|
|
### Inputs
|
|
|
|
Each input has:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
inputs:
|
|
repo:
|
|
type: string
|
|
required: false
|
|
choices: [project, paseo]
|
|
agent:
|
|
type: string
|
|
default: codex
|
|
choices: [codex, claude]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`type` is `string`, `number`, or `boolean`. `required`, `default`, and `choices` are optional. `required` and `default` cannot be combined. Defaults and choices must match the declared type; a default must be one of the choices.
|
|
|
|
Inputs may be referenced as `${{ paseo.inputs.name }}`. A dynamic authority-bearing field such as a provider, model, mode, or environment requires finite `choices` at activation. A prompt cannot supply authority.
|
|
|
|
### Values
|
|
|
|
Values bind expressions under their own namespace:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
values:
|
|
selected_repo: ${{ paseo.inputs.repo ?? steps.classify.outputs.repo }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The grammar supports paths, JSON literals, parentheses, `!`, `==`, `!=`, `&&`, `||`, and `??`. It does not support function calls, JavaScript, arithmetic, mutation, or implicit string coercion. Referenced steps must exist and value dependencies cannot cycle.
|
|
|
|
### Steps
|
|
|
|
| Field | Required | Notes |
|
|
| --------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `id` | yes | Lowercase step identifier, unique within the trigger. |
|
|
| `environment` | yes | Environment name or a finite input expression resolving to one. |
|
|
| `max_runtime` | yes | Positive step hard limit, up to 24h. |
|
|
| `idle_timeout` | yes | Positive idle limit, no longer than the step hard limit. |
|
|
| `agent` | yes | `provider`, optional `model`, `mode`, and `thinkingOptionId`. |
|
|
| `prompt` | yes | Non-empty list of `text` and GitHub-only `include` blocks. |
|
|
| `if` | no | Expression deciding whether this ordered step runs. |
|
|
| `output` | no | `{ schema: <JSON Schema> }` for structured `finish_execution`. |
|
|
| `allow_outputs` | no | Reply capabilities such as `slack.reply`, `discord.reply`, or `github.reply`, each with optional `max`. |
|
|
| `auto_archive` | no | Archives the step's agent when it ends. |
|
|
|
|
Prompt blocks are objects, not a scalar prompt:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
prompt:
|
|
- text: Request: ${{ paseo.prompt }}
|
|
- include: developer.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `${{ paseo.prompt }}`, `${{ paseo.inputs.* }}`, `${{ steps.*.outputs.* }}`, and `${{ values.* }}` in prompts, conditions, and agent selection fields. Provider event payloads are not part of this workflow expression namespace; provider adapters put the normalized request into the prompt and preserve the raw event as evidence.
|
|
|
|
## Prompt partials
|
|
|
|
`include` paths are relative to `.paseo/partials/` and are resolved at the exact GitHub configuration commit. Hub stores the resolved content and SHA-256 hash in the immutable revision. Missing files, unsafe paths, symlinks, submodules, directories, and nested includes are rejected. Manual configurations cannot use repository partials.
|
|
|
|
## Deadlines
|
|
|
|
The trigger's `max_runtime` is the hard limit for the complete workflow run. Each step also has `max_runtime` and `idle_timeout`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
max_runtime: 2h
|
|
steps:
|
|
- id: classify
|
|
max_runtime: 2m
|
|
idle_timeout: 30s
|
|
- id: implement
|
|
max_runtime: 90m
|
|
idle_timeout: 10m
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The effective step hard and idle deadlines are capped by the remaining trigger deadline. Meaningful daemon activity refreshes idle time, but cannot extend a hard deadline. Hub persists absolute deadlines, so a restart or deployment does not reset them. A step timeout fails the run; a trigger timeout stops later steps and interrupts a live agent.
|
|
|
|
## Provider invocation
|
|
|
|
The provider removes its mention or marker before Hub parses leading declared input tokens. Slack and Discord place the inputs immediately after the bot mention. GitHub places them after the configured marker. Manual runs send the same string as the API `input`:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
@Paseo repo=project investigate the failed sync
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The first token that is not a declared input begins the prompt. The clean prompt is available as `${{ paseo.prompt }}`. The raw provider message remains separate Activity evidence. See [provider triggers](/docs/hub/triggers) for provider-specific marker and filter behavior.
|
|
|
|
## Removed fields
|
|
|
|
Do not put execution fields directly on a trigger. `environment`, `agent`, `prompt`, `timeout`, `idle_timeout`, `auto_archive`, and `allow_outputs` are step fields now. The duration field is `max_runtime`; `timeout` is not an alias.
