Original: workflows: a host-agnostic Rust engine for agentic workflows (open source)
Short summary
tinyflows is an open-source Rust crate that models automations as a WorkflowGraph — a directed graph of typed nodes and edges that gets validated, compiled, and executed via the tinyagents engine. It never hard-codes a vendor or makes network calls itself; credentials stay with the host, so the same compiled workflow runs against mocks in CI and real capabilities in production. The crate supports pause-and-resume execution for human-in-the-loop approval flows and uses an n8n-style item-based data model with expression support.
