Workflowy outliner CLI for reading, searching, and editing nodes. Use when the user wants to interact with their Workflowy outline — searching, adding items, viewing trees, marking complete, bulk operations, or usage reports.

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Use the unofficial workflowy CLI mholzen/workflowy for managing a Workflowy outline. Requires API key setup.
Get your API key at https://workflowy.com/api-key/, and save it to ~/.workflowy/api.key: mkdir -p ~/.workflowy echo "your-api-key-here" > ~/.workflowy/api.key
# Get root nodes (depth 2 by default) workflowy get # Get specific node by UUID or short ID workflowy get <item-id> workflowy get https://workflowy.com/#/59fc7acbc68c # Show a node's children as a flat list workflowy list <item-id> # Search (full text, case-insensitive) workflowy search -i "meeting notes" # Search with extended regex workflowy search -E "<time.*>" # Search within a subtree workflowy search "bug" --item-id <parent-id>
# Add a new node to the Inbox workflowy create "Buy groceries" --parent-id=inbox # Add a node to a specific parent workflowy create "Task" --parent-id=<uuid> # Update a node workflowy update <item-id> --name "New name" # Complete/uncomplete workflowy complete <item-id> workflowy uncomplete <item-id> # Move a node workflowy move <item-id> <new-parent-id> # Delete a node (includes its children!) workflowy delete <item-id>
# Search and replace (dry run first!) workflowy replace --dry-run "foo" "bar" workflowy replace --interactive "foo" "bar" # Regex find/replace using capture groups workflowy replace "TASK-([0-9]+)" 'ISSUE-$1' # Transform: split by newlines into children workflowy transform <item-id> split -s "\n" # Transform: trim whitespace workflowy transform <item-id> trim
# Where is most content? workflowy report count --threshold 0.01 # Nodes with most children workflowy report children --top-n 20 # Stale content (oldest modified) workflowy report modified --top-n 50 # Most mirrored nodes (requires backup) workflowy report mirrors --top-n 20

Workflowy supports short IDs, obtained from the "Copy Internal Link" menu: Web URL: https://workflowy.com/#/59fc7acbc68c Can be used directly, e.g. workflowy get https://workflowy.com/#/59fc7acbc68c
inbox — user's inbox home — root of outline workflowy create "Quick note" --parent-id=inbox workflowy id inbox # resolve to UUID
Deleting a node also deletes all its children Results are sorted by priority (display order) Use --method=export for large tree operations (cached, faster) Mirror analysis requires using the backup method Make sure to confirm before performing bulk replace operations
