progressive-building

progressive-building is a Workflow automation & no-code skill for AI agents, published by n8n-io in the n8n repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates progressive-building D (59/100) and it passed the safety scan; a judge model has also reviewed it.

Load before build-workflow and before scoping or planning new workflows and feature additions, including requests spanning multiple workflows. Implement one increment per user message. Finish setup and inspect a successful real execution before offering another increment. Then wait for the next user reply. Partial setup is incomplete. A first setup or test refusal pauses building. Follow the skill's full-build exceptions. Also supports workflow edits and repairs. For workflows that create or write Data Tables, load data-table-manager first. Requests only to run, inspect, or manage existing resources use their normal tools and skills.

A smart anti-scope-creep and anti-overclaiming policy, cap each increment and require real execution evidence before extending, but it explicitly overrides unseen 'guidance above' and has an empty description, so it cannot be judged as self-contained.
