Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant create, validate, simulate and deploy Camunda 8 BPMN processes, forms and DMN models through the local casen CLI.

What you can do
  • Create and edit BPMN, DMN and form files locally, with simulation, linting and test scenarios run on each change.
  • Deploy models and manage deployments, process definitions, instances, incidents and jobs on Camunda 8 clusters.
  • Browse the template gallery and write runnable process templates with their test scenarios and supporting files.
  • Generate connector templates from OpenAPI specs and apply them to elements in a BPMN file.
  • Generate TypeScript types for job workers and check them in CI, and convert Camunda 7 models to Camunda 8.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant should help design, test or ship Camunda 8 process automation, or migrate existing Camunda 7 models, rather than only discuss them. Also fits teams that want agent-driven deployment and monitoring of process instances on a cluster.
Requirements
Runs as a local process on the desktop via the npm package @bpmnkit/cli (Node.js required). A Camunda 8 cluster or local Reebe instance is needed for deployment and operations; SaaS access uses a profile with ZEEBE_CLIENT_ID and ZEEBE_CLIENT_SECRET, and ZEEBE_ADDRESS sets the REST address when no profile is active.
Before you install
Deploying, cancelling instances, resolving incidents and applying templates change state on a live Camunda cluster, so point it at a test environment first. The Camunda SaaS OAuth client secret (ZEEBE_CLIENT_SECRET) is a credential and should be stored in a profile rather than shared. Template use with the force option overwrites existing files.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open BPMN Kit in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Agents: run casen agent-card <bpmn|dmn|form> (~1k tokens) instead of reading this README.

@bpmnkit/cli

Command-line interface for Camunda 8 — deploy, manage, and monitor processes from the terminal

[npm] [license] [typescript] [ai-assisted] [tier: core]

Website · Documentation · GitHub · Changelog

Core tier. Semver at 1.0: nothing breaks without a major release. See product tiers.

Overview

@bpmnkit/cli provides the casen command-line tool for interacting with Camunda 8 clusters. Manage profiles, deploy processes, run queries, and generate connector templates — all from your terminal.

Installation

sh
npm install -g @bpmnkit/cli# orpnpm add -g @bpmnkit/cli

Quick Start

Develop locally — no cluster needed

sh
casen dev

Opens every .bpmn, .dmn and .form file in the folder in the BPMN Kit editor in your browser, with simulation. Saves go back to disk with the file's formatting kept, changes made elsewhere reload live, and each change re-runs lint and the file's .bpmn.tests.json scenarios. See casen dev.

Configure a profile

sh
# Camunda SaaS: the credentials file Hub offers for a cluster's API clientcasen profile import my-cluster ./camunda-credentials.shcasen profile use my-cluster

Deploy a process

sh
casen deploy deploy order-process.bpmn --target camunda8

List process instances

sh
casen pi list --filter '{"state":"ACTIVE"}'

casen pi list [--filter <json>]List process instances
casen pi cancel <key>Cancel a running instance

Templates

CommandDescription
casen template list [--category <c>]List the runnable process templates from the gallery
casen template use <id> [dir]Write a template's .bpmn, .bpmn.tests.json scenarios and any .dmn/.form files (--force overwrites)

Incidents & jobs

CommandDescription
casen incident listList incidents
casen incident resolve <key>Resolve an incident
casen job listList jobs

Typed code generation

CommandDescription
casen gen types <files...> --out <file>TypeScript types for job workers (job types, variables, headers, messages, error codes)
casen gen types <files...> --out <file> --checkExit 1 when the generated file is out of date (CI)
casen gen types <files...> --check-workers <glob> --strictReport job types without a worker and workers without a job type

Camunda 7 migration

CommandDescription
casen migrate c7 <files...>Convert Camunda 7 models to Camunda 8 (<name>.c8.bpmn, or --out <dir>) and report each construct as convertible, manual or unsupported
casen migrate c7 <files...> --checkReport only; exit 1 while manual or unsupported findings remain (--format json for CI)

See Migrate from Camunda 7 for what is converted and why.
