AI-powered workflow automation. Describe any workflow in natural language. Flint parses it into DAGs, runs it reliably with corruption detection, smart retries, and real-time monitoring.
Live Dashboard · API · GitHub
- Scripts break silently: no validation, no retries, no monitoring
- DAGs are code: Airflow requires Python DAGs, Prefect requires decorators, n8n requires drag-and-drop; none accept natural language
- Observability is an afterthought: you discover failures by checking logs manually

pip install flint-dag
# 2. Set your Anthropic API key
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
# 3. Start infrastructure
docker compose up -d
# 4. Run your first workflow
flint run "fetch https://api.github.com/events and print the count"
# 5. Open the dashboard

- Plain English → DAG: An LLM (claude-sonnet-4-6) parses your description using chain-of-thought prompting into a typed DAG with 5 few-shot examples
- Parallel Execution: Kahn's topological sort produces parallel batches;
asyncio.gather()runs each batch concurrently - Corruption Detection: 5 validation checks per task (cardinality, required fields, non-nullable, range, freshness) before downstream tasks run
- Smart Retries: Failure classifier distinguishes rate limits → wait, network → backoff, logic errors → halt immediately
- Live Dashboard: React Flow DAG visualization with WebSocket real-time task status updates
