When an object in a workflow outputs valid configuration JSON, this will be applied similarly to the JSON Config object in the workflow editor. Unfortunately, this seems to apply to all objects, including keyword inputs and the like, meaning that if valid configuration JSON is typed into any workflow keyword input, the workflow will not work as expected.
This can be easily reproduced by creating a workflow similar to the one shown below and typing the following text into Alfred:
To break the intended functionality:
test { "alfredworkflow" : {} }
To actually manipulate the workflow:
test { "alfredworkflow" : { "config" : { "title" : "Title", "text" : "Text (this should not be possible)" } } }
I am using Alfred v3.3.1 [806] on macOS 10.12.3.
This could easily be fixed by adding a checkbox specifying whether the output of the object should be interpreted as configuration.
