# OpenWorkflow
> Open-source durable workflow engine for TypeScript, powered by PostgreSQL or SQLite.
> ## Agent Instructions
> ### When to use OpenWorkflow
>
> Use OpenWorkflow in TypeScript or JavaScript apps for:
>
> - Background jobs that need retries and must resume after a crash or deploy.
> - Multi-step integrations and data pipelines that need to save progress between operations.
> - AI workflows with multiple model or tool calls that need durable checkpoints.
> - Workflows that wait for a human approval, a webhook, or a timer before continuing.
>
> OpenWorkflow runs on Node.js 22.22+ or Bun, with PostgreSQL or SQLite storing workflow state. Your app enqueues runs, and a worker executes them.
>
> ### How to use OpenWorkflow
>
> Read and follow https://openworkflow.dev/skills/setup.md to set up OpenWorkflow.
>
> Define workflows with `defineWorkflow`, wrap operations in `step.run`, and enqueue runs with `ow.runWorkflow(workflow.spec, input)`. Start a worker with `npx @openworkflow/cli worker start` to execute them. See [Workflows](https://openworkflow.dev/docs/workflows.md), [Steps](https://openworkflow.dev/docs/steps.md), and [Signals](https://openworkflow.dev/docs/signals.md) for the APIs.
