A Workflow is a sequence of Assistants that you work through as one guided procedure inside a single chat. Each step hands the conversation to a different Assistant, and because every step happens in the same chat, the next Assistant already has everything the previous one produced in front of it. A recurring multi-step task therefore runs the same way every time, and you never copy-paste between Assistants. Before you start: Workflows are a Professional capability. On a Starter plan the Workflows tab of the Templates library shows Workflows are a Professional feature instead of your Workflows, the Create new → Workflows item is disabled behind an Upgrade to Professional prompt, and Tools → Workflows in chat opens an upgrade card rather than the picker.

Moving to another step replaces whatever is in the input with that step’s prompt. Send — or copy out — what you are part-way through typing before you press or .

Starting a Workflow

There are two ways in. From the Templates library. Click Templates in the global part of the sidebar, open the Workflows tab, and click Run on the Workflow’s card. A new chat opens with the Workflow loaded at step 1 and that step’s prompt already in the input, ready for you to edit and send. From a chat. In the composer, choose Tools → Workflows. The picker lists what you can run under All, Yours, Shared and Libra, with the usual jurisdiction, practice-area and tag filters. Picking one loads it into the chat you are already in and switches the chat to the Assistant on step 1. In a chat that already has messages, the Workflow attaches without touching the input — nothing you have typed is overwritten until you move between steps.

Working through the steps

Once a Workflow is active, a compact row appears inside the composer, just above where you type — not at the top of the chat. Reading left to right it shows the Workflow icon, the step Assistants stacked as overlapping avatars, the Workflow’s name, a chevron, and then the Assistant handling the step you are on. Directly after that comes the step counter — rendered as 2 / 4 — between and buttons. At the far right of the row sits an that removes the Workflow. Nothing advances on its own. When a step’s answer comes back, Libra stays where it is; you decide the step is finished and move on.
  • and step back and forward one at a time, and stop at the first and last step.
  • Hover the current Assistant’s name and a Steps list opens showing every step in order. Click any entry to jump straight there — useful for skipping ahead or going back several steps at once.
  • Hover the Workflow’s name instead and you get the whole numbered step list as a tooltip, without leaving the step you’re on.
  • However you move, Libra switches the chat to that step’s Assistant and puts that step’s prompt into the input. Edit it before you send, or send it as written.
  • Up to three of the current Assistant’s suggested prompts appear as buttons in a row underneath. Clicking one writes it into the input; you still choose when to send.
  • takes the Workflow off the chat and returns it to an ordinary chat. The messages you have already exchanged stay where they are.

What a Workflow is made of

Suggested prompts come from the Assistant on the step, not from the Workflow — tune them on the Assistant and every Workflow that uses it picks them up.

When to use Workflows

A Workflow needs at least two Assistants before it can be saved or run. For a task that only needs one, use that Assistant on its own — Workflows pay off when there are at least two distinct stages.

Where Workflows live

Workflows are templates. They live in the global Templates library under the Workflows tab, alongside the Assistants, Reviews and Discoveries tabs, and any project can run them.

Common Workflow examples

Document analysis → Risk evaluation → Summary of critical pointsChain a contract-analysis Assistant with a risk-evaluation Assistant, finishing with a summary generator. The output is a partner-ready brief.
Document categorisation → Per-category assessment → Final reportProcess large document sets systematically with specialised Assistants for each phase.
Fact analysis → Legal research → Draft → Format checkTake a case file through analysis, legal research, drafting, and final formatting in one run.
Intake form parsing → Conflict check → Engagement letter draft → Email summary to partnerStandardise the front end of every new matter so nothing slips through the cracks.

Tips

A 3-step Workflow that works reliably beats a 10-step Workflow that breaks halfway through. Start short; add steps once each one is solid.
If a step is doing two things, split it. “Analyse the contract and draft a summary” is two steps. Splitting them makes failures easier to diagnose.
A well-tuned Assistant can be a step in many Workflows. Build the Assistants right; reuse them aggressively.
The description shows up to colleagues who haven’t seen the Workflow before. A one-paragraph “what this is for and what it expects as input” prevents misuse.
