Configure a Workflow ​

This guide shows how to tailor a crewbit workflow file for common scenarios.

Set transition priority ​

crewbit processes transitions in declaration order — the first transition with pending issues wins each cycle. Put high-priority work first:

yaml
transitions:
  Done:
    from: Accepted
    command: /merge
  Start:
    from: To Do
    command: /develop

Adjust polling and timeout ​

yaml
daemon:
  waitSeconds: 60        # how long to wait when the queue is empty
  maxSessionSeconds: 3600 # hard timeout per Claude session

Use a custom branch pattern ​

yaml
git:
  defaultBranch: main
  branchPattern: "{issueKey}/{slug}"
  slugMaxLength: 40

Dry-run mode ​

Validate your config without spawning Claude:

bash
crewbit ./dev-junior.yaml --dry-run
