Visual workflow graph

Understand the pipeline before editing it

Jobs become draggable cards, dependencies become edges, and workflow events become trigger nodes. Pan across large workflows, use the minimap, or persist a layout that makes sense to your team.

  • See job steps and runners without tracing YAML blocks
  • Edit dependencies by connecting source and target jobs
  • Open reusable workflows and discover where they are used

Bidirectional YAML sync

Keep the graph and source side by side

Split View synchronizes visual changes to YAML and YAML changes back to the graph in real time. You keep source control transparency while gaining a faster way to understand and reshape dependencies.
