In short, yes:
Create a new task with your prompt, and hit "Create" (instead of "Create and Run"). The interface will show a little hint "Edit steps in plan.md", with 'plan.md' being clickable. Click on it and edit it, experimenting with some ideas. {Bonus tip: toggle "Auto-start steps", to keep it Ralph-y)
I just winged the workflowsbelow, and it worked for the prompt I threw at it. If you like it, you can save it as your custom workflow and use it in the future. If you don't like it - change to your preference.
Now, I prefer a slightly different flow: Implement > Review > [Fix] (and typically limit the loop to 3 times to avoid "divergence"). We'll ship some pre-built templates for that soon. Our researchers are currently working on various variations on our private datasets.
--- # Quick change
## Configuration - *Artifacts Path*: {@artifacts_path} → `.zenflow/tasks/{task_id}`

## Agent Instructions
This is a quick change workflow for small or straightforward tasks where all requirements are clear from the task description.
### Your Approach
1. Proceed directly with implementation 2. Make reasonable assumptions when details are unclear 3. Do not ask clarifying questions unless absolutely blocked 4. Focus on getting the task done efficiently
This workflow also works for experiments when the feature is bigger but you don't care about implementation details.
If blocked or uncertain on a critical decision, ask the user for direction.

## Workflow Steps
### [ ] Step: Implementation
Implement the task directly based on the task description.
1. Make reasonable assumptions for any unclear details 2. Implement the required changes in the codebase 3. Add and run relevant tests and linters if applicable 4. Perform basic manual verification if applicable
Save a brief summary of what was done to `{@artifacts_path}/report.md` if significant changes were made.
After you are done with the step add another one to `{@artifacts_path}/plan.md` that will describe the next improvement opportunity.
Awesome, thanks! I will try this out today.
