About Refly
Refly is an open-source platform for building agent skills, which it treats as durable, versioned infrastructure rather than one-off prompts. You describe a workflow, Refly turns it into an executable skill, and that skill can be reused across teams and runtimes. The input lists its license only as other, so check the repository for terms.
Skills can be run in Refly with one click, exported to coding tools such as Claude Code, or deployed as APIs. Webhooks and bots can connect to Slack and Lark or Feishu, and a skills registry lets the community import, fork, and publish skills. Its topics mention n8n as a comparable workflow tool, and the project talks about compiling enterprise operating procedures into skills.
Refly can be deployed on your own server with Docker using the self-deployment guide, which the project recommends for developers, or accessed through a hosted workspace. It suits developers and operations teams automating repeatable work with AI agents and wanting those automations to be reviewable and shareable.
