# Declarative workflow specification generator

Turn complex multi-step reasoning tasks into structured, reproducible pipeline definitions

[Use with BotBento ](https://app.botbento.com/?ref=usecases&utm_source=botbento.com&utm_medium=usecases&utm_campaign=declarative-workflow-specification-generator)Copy promptShare[Markdown](/text/usecases/declarative-workflow-specification-generator/index.md)

Opens BotBento. Paste the prompt into a bot; nothing is preconfigured.

- When you askReceive workflow requirement
- ThenStructure pipeline steps and schemas
- ResultPresent validated pipeline file

Translate task requirements into declarative workflow definitions that outline inputs, outputs, and processing steps. The bot structures multi-stage task logic into deterministic schemas, validates step dependencies, and prepares executable pipeline definitions ready for version control and test runs.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When given a description of a multi-stage process, analyze the inputs, transformations, and desired outputs. Break the logic into discrete, declarative steps with explicit data contracts between them. Validate pipeline dependencies and generate the workflow configuration file. Always request user confirmation before creating or modifying files in the repository.
