Cryosleep docs

Cryosleep is a durable workflow engine with a CI layer on top. Runs sleep through soak windows, wait for approvals and external signals, and spawn child runs - and the same substrate checks out your repo, runs your build, and reports your commit status. It resumes exactly where it left off across agent restarts, server restarts, and weeks of waiting.

Where to start

Section titled “Where to start”
  • Quickstart - install the cryo binary and get a first run green in two commands, entirely on your machine.
  • Concepts - the mental model, one page.

Then whichever of the three you’re writing in - they run on one engine and compose with each other, so this is a matter of what fits the work, not a ladder:

  • YAML pipelines - the pipeline dialect: jobs, steps, durable waits, approval gates, child workflows.
  • Polyglot scripts - the same workflows in bash, Python, TypeScript, or anything that can spawn a process.
  • Authoring on the canvas - build a graph of nodes and edges in the browser, with live validation and expression autocomplete.

Sign in

Section titled “Sign in”

Sign in on the web UI, mint a personal access token under Settings, then point the CLI at it:

Terminal window
cryo login https://api.cryosleep.io

It verifies the token, resolves your org and project, and writes ~/.config/cryo/config.toml. From there cryo submit, cryo runs, and everything in the CLI reference work against the server.
