Definition
Full definition of multi-step workflow
Simple workflows: trigger → one action. Multi-step: trigger → fetch context → transform → conditional branch → action A or action B → notify. Most production workflows are 5-15 steps. Tiny Command displays the full graph visually so you can see the flow at a glance. Each step's output becomes available to subsequent steps via field mapping.

FAQ
Common questions about multi-step workflow
How many steps is too many?
15-20 is the soft limit before things get hard to maintain. Break into multiple workflows that call each other, or extract logic into reusable subflows.
Can I run steps in parallel?
Yes. Tiny Command supports fan-out where one trigger event runs N actions concurrently. Useful for independent downstream notifications.
