Nika

Author, check and repair Nika workflows (.nika.yaml files — the workflow language for AI). Use when writing or editing a *.nika.yaml file, converting a repeated AI task or prompt chain into a workflow, or when nika check reports NIKA-XXXX findings to fix.

Diagnose and repair failed, paused or suspicious Nika runs from their traces (.nika/traces). Use when nika run exited red, a run paused on a prompt, a NIKA-XXXX runtime finding needs a root cause, a trace must be read or tamper-verified, or a fixed workflow needs a surgical partial rerun.

Convert existing automation — shell scripts, Python glue, Makefile targets, CI jobs, prompt chains in docs — into checkable .nika.yaml workflows. Use when a script wraps LLM calls or HTTP/file plumbing, a prompt chain lives in a README or notebook, or ad-hoc automation needs audit, cost bounds and replayable traces.

Operate Nika workflows day-2 — spend caps, permits boundaries, secrets, model swaps (cloud/local), CI wiring, trace export. Use when hardening a working workflow for production, wiring it into CI or a scheduler, capping cost, tightening the permits boundary, swapping models, or exporting traces to OpenTelemetry.
