Can I turn off Jarvis and build workflows myself?
Yes. Jarvis is optional — it’s there to help you build faster, but you can build any workflow yourself in the editor without it.
Building a workflow without Jarvis
- Go to Workflows and click + New Custom Flow.
- Name it and open the editor.
- Pick a trigger, then add and configure action nodes yourself.
- Test, then publish — see Workflow editor basics.
Building manually gives you full control over every node. Jarvis just turns a plain-English description into a draft workflow you can then edit — anything it can create, you can build or change by hand.
When Jarvis is worth using
Jarvis is fastest for getting a first draft of a search or workflow from a description, or when you’re not sure which nodes you need. If you already know exactly what you want, building directly in the editor is often quicker.
Jarvis uses credits per turn; building manually in the editor does not (you only spend credits when the workflow’s actions run).
