Atmos Workflows

Atmos workflows combine multiple commands into executable units of work. They allow you to define multi-step sequences of Atmos commands and shell scripts, run them in order, and coordinate operations across multiple components and stacks.

What Workflows Are

A workflow is a named sequence of steps defined in a YAML file. Each step is either:

• An Atmos command (type atmos, the default) -- any Atmos CLI command without the atmos prefix
• A Shell command (type shell) -- any shell script or command

Workflows solve the problem of needing to run multiple Terraform operations in a specific order, such as provisioning a VPC before an EKS cluster, or deploying the same component across multiple environments sequentially.

You can use Atmos Custom Commands in workflows, and workflows in Custom Commands -- they are fully interoperable.
