1/ 🚀 New from Next: Agentic Workflows, a research demonstrator exploring natural-language programming for GitHub Actions.

It’s one concrete manifestation of what we’re calling “Continuous AI,” focusing on repo-level automation you can describe in plain English.

2/ 🤖 With Agentic Workflows, you can:
• Write repo automation in Markdown
• Compile it to Actions YAML
• Run it on GitHub using engines like Claude Code or OpenAI Codex
• Keep everything auditable, source-controlled, and team-friendly

3/❓Why?

Some tasks are perfect for natural language:
• Continuous documentation updates
• Issue triage
• Accessibility reviews
• Test improvements
• Continuous QA

All repetitive, collaborative, and needing a bit of judgment.

4/ ✨ Key ideas:
• GitHub-native, Actions-first
• Engine-neutral (swap LLMs without rewriting)
• Shareable workflow pieces
• Strong guardrails + auditable execution

5/ 🔍 This is a research demonstrator, not a product or even a prototype. We’re learning in the open. Help us figure out what works, what’s safe, and what’s reusable!
