Technical solutions are described for machine-assisted workflow execution. An example method includes selecting a workflow for interactive execution, the workflow including a sequence of workflow steps. The method further includes pulling a preliminary update for the workflow from a data source and modifying the workflow dynamically. The method further includes selecting a workflow step from the workflow for execution, and pulling updated information for the workflow step from the data source. The method further includes executing the workflow step using the pulled updated information, the execution includes changing a target system. The method further includes accumulating execution information including attributes associated with execution of the workflow step, and pushing the execution information to the data source upon completion of the workflow step.
