With no usable role the access question goes out role-less, which the server answers as the data table's default — the role that was refused — so the entry comes back with an error and both refusals are true at once. The one that names the cause is tested first. `_format_py_params` is now what its comment claimed: positional-only parameters keep their `/`, their defaults line up with the positional ones, and the second renderer is gone rather than kept one clause behind. Every generated file comes out byte-identical, since nothing in the SDK uses `/` yet — which is exactly how the missing `*` survived.

System Prompts
This directory contains the single source of truth for AI system prompts used by both the frontend copilot and CLI guidance.

Usage
Regenerating Prompts
When SDK methods or the OpenFlow schema change, run:
python system_prompts/generate.py
To also refresh the standalone skills in a Claude plugin checkout:
python system_prompts/generate.py --plugin-dir ~/windmill-claude-plugin
--plugin-dir accepts:
- the
windmill-claude-pluginrepo root - a plugin root such as
plugins/windmill - a direct
skills/directory
To regenerate the public docs repo (consumed by context7):
python system_prompts/generate.py --context7-dir ~/windmill-cli-docs
--context7-dir writes a fully-rendered snapshot (AGENTS.md,
cli-commands.md, skills/<name>/SKILL.md, README.md, manifest.json
with the Windmill version) with all template placeholders resolved —
suitable for ingestion by docs aggregators. In CI this runs from
.github/workflows/publish-cli-docs.yml on every release tag. The
generator refuses to wipe the target directory unless it's empty or has
a context7 marker (context7.json, manifest.json, or a
windmill-cli-docs git remote), so a typo can't delete unrelated files.
This will:
- Parse TypeScript and Python SDK files to extract function signatures
- Parse the OpenFlow YAML schema
- Parse the CLI commands
- Assemble complete prompts from markdown files
- Generate TypeScript exports in
auto-generated/ - Optionally refresh plugin-ready standalone
SKILL.mdfiles in the target directory
Scope
These system prompts contain ONLY:
- How to write Windmill scripts (language syntax, conventions, SDK usage)
- How to structure Windmill flows (OpenFlow schema, module types, data flow)
- Resource type handling, S3 operations
They DO NOT contain:
- Tool usage instructions (edit_code, set_flow_json, etc.)
- IDE/editor specific commands
- Testing tool invocations
Tool instructions are added separately by the frontend and CLI.
CLI-only workflow instructions live in base/flow-cli.md and are included in the
generated write-flow skill for wmill init. They are intentionally excluded
from the frontend flow chat prompt.
Integration
Frontend
Uses Vite path alias $system_prompts pointing to auto-generated/:
import { FLOW_GUIDANCE } from "$system_prompts/flow";
import { getLangContext } from "$system_prompts/languages";
CLI
Generates /cli/src/guidance/skills.gen.ts with embedded skill content for wmill init.
Editing Guidelines
- Edit markdown files in
base/,languages/ - Never edit files in
auto-generated/directly - After editing, run
generate.pyto update exports
