output-workflow-reset
This skill terminates a workflow and creates a new run that replays up to a chosen completed step, then re-executes everything after it. Ideal for iterating on later steps' logic or recovering from failures without re-paying the cost of earlier LLM calls or API requests.
output-workflow-reset lets you rerun a workflow from after a specific completed step, skipping costly earlier operations.

AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I rerun a workflow from a specific step?
output-workflow-reset terminates your current workflow and creates a new run that replays up to your chosen completed step, then re-executes everything after it. This lets you iterate on later steps' logic or recover from failures without re-paying for earlier LLM calls or API requests.
Can I skip expensive steps and restart a workflow midway?
Yes. output-workflow-reset replays your workflow up to a completed step you specify, preserving all upstream outputs and costs. Only steps after your chosen checkpoint re-execute, making it ideal for expensive workflows where you want to avoid re-running earlier LLM calls or API requests.
How do I resume a workflow from a specific point after a late-stage failure?
output-workflow-reset lets you recover from late-stage workflow failures by resetting to the last known-good step. The skill terminates the failed run and creates a new one replaying up to that step, then continues forward—avoiding the cost and time of re-executing earlier steps.
How can I iterate on later workflow steps without full re-execution?
output-workflow-reset is designed for this use case. Specify a completed step as your reset point, and the skill replays up to that checkpoint then re-executes only downstream steps. This lets you refine later steps' prompts or logic while keeping upstream outputs intact.
Can output-workflow-reset branch a workflow for debugging?
Yes. output-workflow-reset can branch an existing workflow run from a midpoint checkpoint, preserving all upstream outputs and avoiding re-execution costs. This is useful for debugging downstream steps while keeping your original run's history and data intact.
Does output-workflow-reset support audit trails for production use?
output-workflow-reset can record reasons when resetting workflows, supporting audit trail requirements in production environments. This helps teams track why and when workflow resets occurred for compliance and operational transparency.

Rerun Workflow From a Step
Overview
This skill resets a workflow to re-run from after a specific completed step. The current run is terminated and a new run is created that replays the workflow up to the given step (reusing its recorded output), then re-executes every step after it.
Use this to avoid re-running expensive early steps (like LLM calls or slow HTTP requests) when you only need to iterate on a later step.
When to Use This Skill
- A workflow failed late, but every step before the failure succeeded — rerun from after the last known-good step instead of starting over
- You edited a prompt or step function that only affects steps after step N, and want to validate the change against the same upstream inputs
- You want to branch off an existing run for debugging
