### GitHub Agentic Workflows
10+
11+
[GitHub Agentic Workflows](https://github.com/github/gh-aw) is a framework for running agents on the Actions compute and event framework.
12+
13+
The quickstart docs here: https://github.github.com/gh-aw/ are a great way to get started, or simply paste this to your agent:
14+
15+
```text
16+
Install GitHub Agentic Workflows using https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/main/install.md
17+
```
18+
19+
To create a new workflow:
20+
21+
```text
22+
Create a workflow for GitHub Agentic Workflows using https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/create.md
23+
24+
```
25+
26+
Not just for coding! Check out [Peli's Agent Factory](https://github.github.com/gh-aw/blog/2026-01-12-welcome-to-pelis-agent-factory/) for many inspiring examples.
27+
28+
## Loop Engineering
29+
30+
Rather than directly prompting agents, agentic engineering is shifting toward creating recurring goal-oriented processes that run automatically. This can target goals like performing research, increasing test coverage, migrating a codebase, keeping issues triaged, or anything that you can measure and improve about your repository!
31+
32+
### Autoloop
33+
34+
[Autoloop](https://github.com/githubnext/autoloop) automates repeated
35+
improvement loops in a repository: define a goal, target files, and a measurable
36+
evaluation, and it keeps only changes that improve the metric.
37+
38+
Agent install comamnd:
39+
40+
```text
41+
Install autoloop using https://github.com/githubnext/autoloop/blob/main/install.md
42+
```
43+
44+
### Crane
45+
46+
[Crane](https://githubnext.com/posts/crane/) automates verified code migrations,
47+
planning and applying migration steps while preserving behavior through tests and
48+
health checks.
49+
50+
Agent install comamnd:
51+
52+
```text
53+
Install crane using https://github.com/githubnext/crane/blob/main/install.md
54+
```
55+
56+
### Goal
57+
58+
[Goal](https://github.com/githubnext/goal) turns a GitHub issue into a durable
59+
agentic workflow that keeps working on the same branch and pull request until
60+
the issue's completion contract is satisfied.
61+
62+
Agent install comamnd:
63+
64+
```text
65+
Install goal using https://github.com/githubnext/goal/blob/main/install.md
66+
```
67+
68+
## How to use one in your repo
69+
70+
1. Clone your repository locally, if you do not already have it.
71+
2. Start Copilot or the coding agent of your choice in that repository.
72+
3. Think of a task you want to accomplish in your repo, and match it with one of the tools above
73+
4. Paste the tool's install prompt into your agent.
74+
5. Ask for help!
75+
76+
After today, find us in our [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/K2mVGbR9bK). We would love to help you on your agentic workflows journey.
