An AI agent starts the flow itself, as one of its own tools. This is the direction competitors do not have: the agent is not only a step inside a workflow, it can decide to run one. How it works

What does this automation do?

When a draft is ready, the agent runs this flow to read the document, do the final editorial pass, publish it, and tell the channel it is live.

What can you do with it?

  • Publish from the document itself, not from a re-pasted copy
  • Apply the same editorial pass to every post that ships
  • Announce the post the moment it goes live

The Steps

This automation runs in 5 steps:

  1. When Agent Tool
  2. Then Google Docs — Read Document
  3. Then Taskade AI — Ask an agent ("Managing Editor")
  4. Then WordPress — Create Post
  5. Then Slack — Send Channel Message

What makes this different from a Zapier-style flow?

The "Managing Editor" step is not a one-off model call. It is a Taskade AI agent that knows your style guide, internal link map and published archive, remembers everything it has already published, so every run builds on the last one instead of starting from an empty prompt.

A stateless "ask the model" step forgets everything the moment it returns. An agent keeps its knowledge and its memory between runs, carries its own tools, and can be handed work by other automations.

Who is this automation for?

Built for content teams whose agent owns the last mile of publishing. When a draft is ready, the agent runs this flow to read the document, do the final editorial pass, publish it, and tell the channel it is live.

How do you set it up?

  • Open the "Automations" tab in your workspace.
  • Click ➕ Add automation, then start from scratch.
  • Add the "Agent Tool" trigger.
  • Add the action "Read Document" from Google Docs.
  • Add the action "Ask an agent" from Taskade AI. Point it at an agent called "Managing Editor".
  • Add the action "Create Post" from WordPress.
  • Add the action "Send Channel Message" from Slack.
  • Enable the toggle in the top-right corner to activate the automation.
