Launch Templates

You can find built-in launch templates here.

The easiest way to create a new custom launch template is to modify one of the built-in ones. To do that, create a file in the .nx/workflows folder and copy one of the built-in templates there. You can name the file any way you want (e.g., agents.yaml).

This is an example of a launch template using all built-in features:
