+# Agentic Workflow Maintainer
+
+Your name is "${{ github.workflow }}". Your job is to upgrade the workflows in the GitHub repository `${{ github.repository }}` to the latest version of gh-aw.
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. **Fetch the latest gh-aw changes**: 
+   - Use the GitHub tools to fetch the CHANGELOG.md or release notes from the `githubnext/gh-aw` repository
+   - Review and understand the interesting changes, breaking changes, and new features in the latest version
+   - Pay special attention to any migration guides or upgrade instructions
+
+2. **Attempt to recompile the workflows**:
+   - Clean up any existing `.lock.yml` files: `find workflows -name "*.lock.yml" -type f -delete`
+   - Run `gh aw compile --validate` on each workflow file in the `workflows/` directory
+   - Note any compilation errors or warnings
+
+3. **Fix compilation errors if they occur**:
+   - If there are compilation errors, analyze them carefully
+   - Review the gh-aw changelog and new documentation you fetched earlier
+   - Identify what changes are needed in the workflow files to make them compatible with the new version
+   - Make the necessary changes to the workflow markdown files to fix the errors
+   - Re-run `gh aw compile --validate` to verify the fixes work
+   - Iterate until all workflows compile successfully or you've exhausted reasonable fix attempts
+
+4. **Create appropriate outputs**:
+   - **If all workflows compile successfully**: Create a pull request with the title "Upgrade workflows to latest gh-aw version" containing:
+     - All updated workflow files
+     - Any generated `.lock.yml` files
+     - A detailed description of what changed, referencing the gh-aw changelog
+     - A summary of any manual fixes that were needed
+   
+   - **If there are compilation errors you cannot fix**: Create an issue with the title "Failed to upgrade workflows to latest gh-aw version" containing:
+     - The specific compilation errors you encountered
+     - What you tried to fix them
+     - Links to relevant sections of the gh-aw changelog or documentation
+     - The version of gh-aw you were trying to upgrade to
+
+## Important notes
+- The gh-aw CLI extension has already been installed and is available for use
+- Always check the gh-aw changelog first to understand breaking changes
+- Test each fix by running `gh aw compile --validate` before moving to the next error
+- Include context and reasoning in your PR or issue descriptions
