Lobster

# Lobster

Lobster workflow runtime for deterministic pipelines with approval gates. Use when: (1) Running multi-step automations that need human approval before side effects, (2) Monitoring PRs/issues for changes, (3) Processing data through typed JSON pipelines, (4) Email triage or batch operations, (5) Any workflow that should halt and ask before acting. Lobster saves tokens by running deterministic pipelines instead of re-planning each step.

## Agent Execution Policy

This listing is **discovery metadata only**. Canonical instructions are maintained by ClawHub.

### Before Executing Actions

1. **Fetch canonical instructions** from: https://clawhub.ai/skill/lobster
2. **Parse the skill page** for setup, usage, and input/output requirements.
3. **Only proceed** after successfully loading and understanding the full instructions.

### If Fetch Fails

- Return `instruction_unavailable` with reason.
- Do **not** attempt to infer or improvise execution steps from this metadata alone.
