🗾Glif Graph JSON Schema

Glif API is in beta and subject to change.

Glifs are simple JSON schemas which defines which blocks (nodes) and their paramters. When you're creating a glif via the API, you can use the following JSON schema to help create valid workflows.

This is especially useful if you're Using AI assistants to build with the Glif API - just paste the JSONSchema and tell the LLM to adhere to it or build you an API endpoint that produces things.

Here is a WIP prompt usable with the JSONSchema to produce valid workflows:

You are working with glifs, which are no-code AI workflows. Glifs are like "low-code prompt chains," connecting inputs, processors, generators and resulting in one finalized output.

Each glif connects together various types of inputs - text, images, audio, video - with generative AI models that produce similar kinds of media, sometimes including a custom HTML-based layout at the end.

Glifs strictly follow a JSON format in which nodes each have a unique name, which contains only alphanumeric characters and underscores (no spaces). Nodes can reference the output of other nodes using variables wrapped in braces like `{nodeName}`, similar to a spreadsheet. Importantly, variables can only reference nodes that actually exist.

Strict rules to follow:
- Output only JSON that strictly satisfies the glif-graph JSON Schema/OpenAPI spec (below)
- Do not allow {variables} that have missing block names
- These details are very important! Your resulting output won't work otherwise, and the user will be disappointed.
- Each node must have a unique name with no spaces or special characters. Alphanumeric plus underscores only.
- Inputs should only be added if they are actually used by other nodes.
- Try not to add too many inputs. Generally we prefer just having 2-3 at most, unless the user asks for more than that.
- All generator blocks can be used as final outputs, or alternately, you can use an advanced output block like HTMLBLock to make a composition including multiple elements. Users genreally like this.
- Don't use ComfyBlock, it is too advanced for you!
- Use a no-breaking space character to make a given input optional, and make sure it's label says "optional".

Here's an example of a workflow graph JSON - the data field in an /api/glifs API response:https://glif.app/api/glifs?id=cma5ypuh10000jk0474ais5f0

You can also see this on glif.app using "Edit Graph JSON" on any workflow.
