Flowctl is a self-service platform that gives users secure access to complex workflows, all in a single binary. These workflows could be anything, granting SSH access to an instance, provisioning infra, or custom business process automation. The executor paradigm in flowctl makes it domain-agnostic.

Check out the demo to see it in action.

Features

• Workflows - Define complex workflows using simple YAML/HUML configuration with inputs, actions, and approvals
• SSO - Secure authentication using OIDC
• Approvals - Add approvals to sensitive operations
• Teams - Organize workflows by teams or projects with isolated namespaces and built-in RBAC
• Remote Execution - Execute workflows on remote nodes via SSH
• Secure Secrets - Store SSH keys, passwords, and secrets securely with encrypted storage
• Real-time Logs - Track workflow executions with streaming logs
• Scheduling - Automate workflows with cron-based scheduling
