Workflow Chaining
TL;DR
Linking multiple tools in sequence to handle complex, multi-step workflows.
Definition
Linking multiple tools in sequence to handle complex, multi-step workflows. The standard pattern is Connector (fetch data) to Claude's reasoning engine (process) to Skill (apply formatting or logic). Each component does one job well, and they connect in sequence to handle end-to-end automation.
Exam Context
Know the correct component for each role: Connectors for external data access, Skills for internal procedural logic. The exam tests whether you can correctly assign each step of a workflow chain.
