name: daily-report
trigger:
  type: schedule
  cron: "0 9 * * *"  # Daily at 9am
actions:
  - name: fetch-data
    type: http
    config:
      url: https://api.example.com/data
      method: GET
      
  - name: process
    type: transform
    config:
      template: "Report: {{results.count}} items"
      
  - name: notify
    type: telegram
    config:
      chat_id: "{{env.CHAT_ID}}"
      message: "{{processed}}"

  --run-once       Run workflow once and exit
  --daemon         Run as background daemon
  --env FILE       Load environment variables

Best Practices

1. Use environment variables for secrets 2. Add error handling for each action 3. Log actions for debugging 4. Test workflows with --run-once first
