Repositories, Tasks, and Workflows

Zenflow organizes work into a clear hierarchy that keeps every automation layer aligned and traceable.

Repositories

Repositories are the codebases your AI agents work in. Each repository contains:
  • Repository connection: Link to your Git repository (create blank, clone from GitHub, or select from computer)
  • Automation settings: Default agents, workflows, and verification scripts
  • Kanban boards: Visual task management with customizable columns
  • Team settings: Shared configurations and access controls
Run multiple repositories simultaneously—each repo has its own tuned workflows. Add repositories via the + icon in the sidebar and select Add repository.

Tasks

Tasks are the fundamental unit of work in Zenflow. Each task:
  • Runs in an isolated Git worktree for conflict-free parallel execution
  • Has a dedicated branch that tracks all changes
  • Contains workflow-specific artifacts (specs, plans, reports)
  • Supports verification gates that validate changes automatically

Subtasks and Chats

Live, step-aware conversations where agents plan, build, and verify while telemetry shows every command and result. You can intervene, approve, or redirect at any point.

Git Worktrees

Every task runs in its own isolated workspace powered by Git worktrees. This enables true parallel execution—multiple agents working simultaneously without conflicts. When you create a task:
  1. A new worktree is created at .zenflow/tasks/{task_id}
  2. A dedicated branch is created for that task
  3. Agents work in this isolated directory
  4. Changes remain separate until you merge

Workflows

Workflows define how tasks execute. Zenflow includes built-in workflows:
WorkflowBest For
Quick ChangeSmall, well-understood tasks
Fix BugRegressions and issue triage
Spec and BuildMedium features needing design review
Full SDDLarge initiatives with PRDs and specs
You can also create custom workflows by adding Markdown files to .zenflow/workflows/.

Verification

Zenflow’s quality gate ensures only passing code reaches you:
  • Automatic verification runs after each agent turn
  • Tests, builds, and security checks execute as configured
  • Multi-agent verification lets agents cross-check each other’s work
  • Fast feedback helps agents self-correct before issues accumulate
