* feat(cli): run declarative flows on the TUI with a headless terminal fallback

Declarative flows now run on the CrewRunApp TUI when interactive, matching
declarative crews and conversational flows. Headless contexts — CREWAI_DMN
(deploy), piped output, CI, any non-TTY — fall back to the direct-terminal
kickoff, gated by is_interactive() (folds in the CREWAI_DMN check and requires
a real TTY).

The TUI shows per-method progress: a new STEPS panel driven by flow method
events (FlowStarted / MethodExecutionStarted/Finished/Failed), each labeled
with its declarative call type (crew/agent/expression/…) read from the flow
definition. Crews/agents inside a method keep streaming in the main panel via
the existing crew/task/LLM handlers.

- crew_run_tui.py: _run_flow_worker (flow.kickoff in a thread worker; reuses
  _on_crew_done/_on_crew_failed + _stringify_output), _is_flow_run gate so crew
  rendering is byte-identical, flow-event subscriptions building _flow_steps,
  and the STEPS sidebar + flow-aware header.
- run_declarative_flow.py: is_interactive() branch → _run_declarative_flow_tui
  (EventListener, method-type map from flow._definition, crew-parity exit codes
  and deploy chaining) or the existing terminal path.

Deviation from the approved plan: gate on is_interactive() rather than
is_dmn_mode_enabled() alone, so non-TTY runs (CI/pipes/CliRunner) never launch
a TUI — this also keeps existing headless flow tests green.

* fix(cli): force flow events on for the TUI so STEPS renders under suppress_flow_events

Review follow-up: the STEPS panel and header are driven by flow method events
(FlowStarted / MethodExecution*), but the declarative runtime skips emitting
those when the flow declared config.suppress_flow_events. Interactive TUI runs
would then keep STEPS on "waiting…" and the header on "Starting flow…" while
nested crews still execute.

_run_declarative_flow_tui now forces flow.suppress_flow_events = False for the
interactive run (mirroring how the conversational path mutates the flow for the
TUI). The headless/terminal path never reaches this and keeps the flow's
declared setting. Regression test: test_run_declarative_flow_tui_enables_flow_events.

* fix(cli): clear flow header's current method when a method ends

Review follow-up: the flow header keys off _current_method, which was set on
MethodExecutionStarted but never cleared on Finished/Failed. Between steps (or
after a failed method before kickoff exits) the header kept spinning the old
method name while the STEPS sidebar already showed it done/failed.

_clear_current_method now drops the header's active method when it ends,
falling back to another still-active step (methods can overlap) or none. The
header's idle fallback shows "Working…" once a step has run and "Starting
flow…" only before the first method.

Tests: test_current_method_clears_and_falls_back_across_overlap, plus a
_current_method assertion in test_flow_method_events_build_steps.

* fix: suppress flow console panels in TUI mode; clear header agent on method change

Two review follow-ups:

1) Method panels break Textual TUI (Cursor): forcing suppress_flow_events off
   so the STEPS panel receives events also un-gated the EventListener's Rich
   flow/method panels (ConsoleFormatter.print_panel prints is_flow=True panels
   regardless of verbose), which interleave with Textual and corrupt the TUI.
   print_panel now skips is_flow panels when is_tui_mode() is set (the same
   context the TUI worker already establishes and the tracing listeners already
   honor). Non-TUI/headless flow runs are unaffected. Test:
   test_console_formatter_tui_mode.

2) Flow header showed a stale agent (CodeRabbit): _current_agent persisted
   across methods. It's now cleared when a method starts and when the active
   method changes, so the header never shows the previous method's agent until
   a new agent event arrives. Test: test_flow_method_transitions_clear_current_agent.

* fix(cli): keep flow name over nested crews; show paused flow methods

Two review follow-ups on the flow TUI:

1) Crew kickoff renamed the flow (Cursor): CrewKickoffStartedEvent overwrote
   _crew_name / the app title with a nested `call: crew` step's crew name, so
   the post-run summary could be labeled with a child crew. The rename is now
   gated on `not _is_flow_run`, preserving the flow's name; crew runs still
   adopt the crew name. Tests: test_crew_kickoff_does_not_rename_flow_run,
   test_crew_kickoff_renames_in_crew_mode.

2) Paused methods showed active (Cursor): the TUI didn't handle
   MethodExecutionPausedEvent, so a @human_feedback pause left the STEPS
   spinner running (flow status panels are suppressed in TUI mode). It now
   marks the step "paused" (⏸, teal) and the header shows "waiting for
   feedback" instead of a spinner. Test: test_method_paused_marks_step_paused.

Note: interactively *providing* human feedback from the flow TUI is a separate
follow-up; this only makes the pause visible instead of a silent stuck spinner.

* fix(cli): run human-feedback declarative flows on the terminal, not the TUI

Two review follow-ups, both rooted in @human_feedback methods:

- Paused flow marked complete (Cursor): async human feedback makes kickoff
  RETURN a HumanFeedbackPending marker (not raise), which _run_flow_worker
  would stringify and report as a successful completion with exit 0.
- Sync feedback breaks TUI (Cursor): default (sync) @human_feedback collects
  input via the flow runtime's Rich console.print + blocking input(), which
  interleaves with Textual and leaves the user unable to review output or
  submit feedback.

run_declarative_flow now routes any flow whose declarative definition declares
human feedback (_flow_uses_human_feedback) to the terminal path, where blocking
input and Rich prompts work natively — regardless of interactivity. Non-feedback
flows still get the TUI. Tests: test_flow_uses_human_feedback_detection,
test_human_feedback_flow_uses_terminal_even_when_interactive.

Fully interactive human feedback inside the TUI remains a separate follow-up.

* refactor(cli): address review — Flow typing, debug logging, flow-vs-crew naming

Review follow-ups from @lucasgomide:

- Type flow helpers as Flow[Any] (via TYPE_CHECKING import) instead of Any and
  drop the defensive getattr chains — _definition is a typed PrivateAttr and
  name/suppress_flow_events are typed fields, so attribute access is safe.
- Replace the silent `except Exception: pass` blocks with logger.debug(...,
  exc_info=True) so unexpected failures are diagnosable in the field
  (_flow_method_types, _flow_uses_human_feedback, suppress_flow_events toggle).
- Flow-vs-crew naming: the flow worker now uses group="flow" (was the
  misleading "crew"), and the shared completion/failure handlers report the
  run with an entity-aware noun ("flow" vs "crew") via _run_noun.

Deferred (separate PR): the os._exit(130) hard-kill on user quit is kept as-is
to match the existing crew convention (run_crew._run_json_crew).

Tests: test_flow_done_uses_flow_wording_for_unfinished_tool; existing crew
wording tests unchanged.

3246cb30f5 fix(cli): unify crewai run flow input resolution and prompt from the state schema (#6466)
* fix(cli): unify `crewai run` flow input resolution; prompt from state schema

`crewai run` resolved the configured [tool.crewai] flow, but `--inputs` was
hard-gated behind `--definition` and routed through a separate branch — the two
ways of pointing at the same flow didn't share resolution, and required inputs
were never detected, prompted, or validated (a missing field only blew up at
runtime).

Now inputs and definition come from one place:

- Remove the "--inputs requires --definition" gate (cli.py, run_crew.py,
  run_declarative_flow.py). `--inputs` alone resolves the configured flow,
  exactly like a bare `crewai run`; `--definition` is purely an override. The
  project-env re-exec forwards `--inputs` instead of rejecting it.
- Read the flow's state schema from the runtime Flow instance
  (`type(flow.state).model_json_schema()`), which is reliable for both inline
  `json_schema` and ref-imported `pydantic` state (the static definition's
  json_schema is None for the common ref case).
- Plain `crewai run` detects required state fields (minus those satisfied by
  state defaults) and prompts for them interactively, showing each field's
  description; skipped in non-interactive / CREWAI_DMN mode.
- Validate against the schema before kickoff: pointed
  "Missing required input 'x' — <description>" errors, and warn on unknown keys
  with a did-you-mean suggestion (catches typos like `prospect_emai`).

`--inputs` on a non-flow project now errors clearly ("only supported for
declarative flows") instead of the old confusing gate.

Tests: schema-driven prompt/validate/override paths, unknown-key warning,
defaults-satisfy-required, type validation, and re-exec input forwarding.

* fix(cli): forward reserved `id` input to flow kickoff; ruff format

- Cursor: the schema filter treated an `id` key in --inputs as unknown and
  dropped it, regressing kickoff's persistence-restore support (inputs["id"]).
  Let `id` pass through untouched (test: reserved_id_input_is_forwarded).
- Apply ruff format to run_declarative_flow.py (fixes the lint-run
  `ruff format --check` step).

* fix(cli): don't block persistence-restore resume on schema validation

Cursor (High): `crewai run --inputs '{"id":"…"}'` is a persistence resume —
kickoff hydrates full state from storage, so schema-required fields may come
from the restored state rather than --inputs. The new required-field
prompt/validation was erroring/prompting before kickoff, breaking resume. When
`id` is present in --inputs, forward the inputs unchanged and skip the
prompt/validation. Test: test_id_only_input_skips_required_validation.

* fix(cli): load project .env in the declarative-flow runner

The declarative-flow path never loaded .env — flow projects (type = "flow")
missed API keys/config that crew projects pick up. The JSON-crew path loads
Path.cwd()/.env with override=True (run_crew._run_json_crew); mirror that at
the top of run_declarative_flow() so flow projects behave the same regardless
of where crewai is installed. Test: run_declarative_flow_loads_project_env.

* feat(cli): unify runtime-input prompting across declarative flows and crews

Declarative (JSON) crews now resolve inputs the same way declarative flows
do, via a shared crewai_cli.input_prompt module (prompt_for_inputs,
parse_inputs_json, closest_name, is_interactive):

- accept --inputs (previously rejected for crews), forwarded to the crew
  subprocess via CREWAI_JSON_CREW_INPUTS and validated before spinning up uv
- layer --inputs over the crew's declared `inputs` defaults
- prompt for missing {placeholder}s with the same UX as flows, and error
  cleanly with a pointed per-name message when non-interactive
- warn on unknown keys with a "did you mean" suggestion

Unlike flows — whose state schema is authoritative, so unknown keys are
dropped — the crew placeholder scan is heuristic (agent/task text fields
only), so unrecognized keys are warned about but kept, to avoid discarding a
value a field the scan doesn't cover may rely on.

--inputs remains rejected for classic (Python/YAML) crews, which take their
inputs from main.py. run_declarative_flow's private input helpers move to the
shared module with no behavior change.

* test(crewai): update mirrored CLI test after run_crew input refactor

lib/crewai/tests/cli/test_run_crew.py imports crewai_cli internals and is
collected by the lib/crewai test job (Run Tests). It still imported
_prompt_for_missing_inputs, which was replaced by _resolve_crew_inputs, so
the module failed to import — erroring pytest at collection and cancelling
the rest of the matrix via fail-fast.

Point it at _resolve_crew_inputs and patch the prompt in the shared
crewai_cli.input_prompt module where prompting now lives.

* fix(cli): filter unknown --inputs keys even on flow persistence restore

Review follow-up: the `id` (persistence-restore) branch of
_resolve_flow_inputs returned the raw payload, so typo keys passed alongside
`id` skipped the unknown-key warning/drop and reached kickoff — which can
fail strict (extra="forbid") flow state models. The restore path now still
warns on and drops unknown keys (keeping `id` and known state fields); it
only skips the required-field prompt and pre-kickoff validation, which
persistence hydrates. Regression test: test_id_restore_still_drops_unknown_keys.

Also drop the duplicate module import in test_input_prompt.py (both `import`
and `from ... import` of crewai_cli.input_prompt) flagged by the code-quality
bot; monkeypatching now uses the string target form.

596150188b Require explicit CrewAI project definitions (#6358)
* Require explicit CrewAI project definitions

JSON crews and declarative flows now resolve from `[tool.crewai]`
metadata instead of implicit filename discovery. This makes project type
selection deterministic, prevents stray `crew.json(c)` files from changing
CLI behavior, and centralizes definition path validation for run, install,
deploy validation, plotting, and memory reset paths.

`[tool.crewai].definition` must be a project-local file path. Absolute
paths, `~`, missing files, directories, and paths escaping the project root
are rejected so deploy and runtime commands use the same contract.

Breaking changes and migration paths:

* JSON crew projects are no longer discovered from `crew.json` or
  `crew.jsonc` alone. Add explicit metadata:

  ```toml
  [tool.crewai]
  type = "crew"
  definition = "crew.jsonc"
  ```

* Declarative flow projects must use a valid project-local definition path:

  ```toml
  [tool.crewai]
  type = "flow"
  definition = "flows/research.yaml"
  ```

* `Flow.from_definition(definition)` is removed. Use:

  ```python
  Flow.from_declaration(contents=definition)
  ```

* `FlowDefinition.to_json()` and `FlowDefinition.to_yaml()` are removed.
  Use `FlowDefinition.to_dict()` and serialize with the caller's JSON or
  YAML library.

* `FlowDefinition.from_dict()` is removed. Use:

  ```python
  FlowDefinition.from_declaration(contents=data)
  ```

* `FlowDefinition.json_schema()` is removed. Use Pydantic's schema API only
  where schema generation is intentionally needed:

  ```python
  FlowDefinition.model_json_schema(by_alias=True)
  ```

* `crewai_cli.run_crew.find_crew_json_file()` and `_has_json_crew()` are
  removed. Use `configured_project_json_crew()` or the shared
  `crewai_core.project.configured_project_definition("crew")` helper.

* `crewai reset-memories` now only loads JSON crews declared through
  `[tool.crewai].definition`, and invalid declared JSON crew definitions
  fail instead of silently falling back to classic crew discovery.

* Address code review comments

3452e5c187 Add unified declarative flow loading (#6308)
Add a single declaration loader shared by API and CLI callers.

- Add FlowDefinition.from_declaration for FlowDefinition instances, dictionaries, YAML/JSON strings, and file paths
- Add Flow.from_declaration to build runnable flows directly from the same inputs
- Route declarative flow CLI loading through Flow.from_declaration so path handling and validation stay centralized

```
# Load just the serializable definition when you do not need to run it yet.
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(path="flows/research.crewai")
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(contents=flow_yaml)
definition = FlowDefinition.from_declaration(contents=flow_dict)

# Build a runnable flow directly from the same declaration inputs.
flow = Flow.from_declaration(path="flows/research.crewai")
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=flow_yaml)
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=flow_dict)
flow = Flow.from_declaration(contents=definition)

# Run it like any other flow.
result = flow.kickoff(inputs={"topic": "AI agents"})

# The CLI now goes through the same path-based loader.
# crewai run --definition flows/research.crewai

4b2ce00a09 Add declarative Flow CLI support (#6294)
* Add declarative Flow CLI support

Currently, declarative flows can be loaded by the runtime, but the CLI
still treats them as an experimental definition file instead of a
first-class Flow project shape.

With this PR, `crewai create flow --declarative` scaffolds a YAML-backed
Flow project, and `crewai run`, `crewai flow kickoff`, and `crewai flow
plot` can run against the configured definition.

This also lets crew actions reference reusable crew definition files or
folders and override their inputs from the Flow definition, so
declarative flows can compose existing declarative crews without
inlining everything.
