I don't know, but here's how I suggest you find out:
Start with a real flow with at least one assignment, and put your flow action as one of the allowable LOCAL actions for the assignment.
Trace what we do when you choose that LOCAL action. A number of the activities you see performed will be the same ones you'll need. It's probably just one or two activities that already exist, and they call everything else for you.

>>> How to call a flow action from activity in 6.2 sp2
- would it be convincing to try the following steps?
- call harness from activity [Call Show-Harness or UIActionDisplayHarness]
- drag & drop the section in harness [RULE-HTML-SECTION @BASECLASS PXLOCALACTION]
- Pass appropriate parameters for pxLocalAction
Please share your thoughts/comments, Thank you!

call OOTB @baseclass processAction activity from your activity. It renders flow action from the activity.
Also pass these parameters to processAction activity from the calling activity:
your flowaction name as NewTaskStatus, StreamType as "Rule-HTML-Section", StreamClass as "Rule-HTML-Section".
If you need it in a modal dialog, pass modal template name as ActionSection and bIsModal as true.

What is the ActionSection when we are passing the flow action name as TaskStatus. What is it? Can you please provide a set of sample parameter values you have used in below format.
TaskStatus = "XYZFlowAction"
StreamClass="Rule-HTML-Section"
etc.,
