Nodes

A workflow is a graph of nodes. Each node takes inputs, does one thing, and publishes named outputs that later nodes can reference.

Only connected nodes run. Anything left unattached on the canvas is skipped. The graph is sorted into execution order before the run starts, so a cycle is rejected rather than run forever.

Referencing earlier outputs

Any text field can pull in an earlier node's output with a {{ }} placeholder. The placeholder body is a path whose first segment is the node id:

{{ nodeId.title }}
{{ nodeId.matches[0].selector }}

Rules worth knowing:

  • A missing node, a missing key, or a null value becomes an empty string. Nothing throws.
  • Objects and arrays are inserted as JSON.
  • The same function powers the editor's preview and the runner, so what you see while editing is what the run substitutes.

Node reference

Start

The entry point. A trigger node with no inputs and no outputs — it marks where the run begins.

Open URL

Navigates the session to a page.

InputRequiredNotes
URLYesFor example https://youtube.com
DescriptionNoFree text describing the page
OutputMeaning
urlThe URL that was opened
titleThe page title

Act

Performs one action on the current page, described in natural language.

InputRequiredNotes
InstructionYesFor example Click the sign in button
OutputMeaning
successWhether the action was performed
messageWhat happened
urlThe URL after the action

Keep instructions atomic. Click the sign in button works; Sign in and then go to settings is two nodes.

Extract

Pulls structured data off the current page.

InputRequiredNotes
InstructionYesFor example Extract the price of the first listing
OutputMeaning
resultThe extracted value

Observe

Finds candidate elements on the page without acting on them. Useful when you want to inspect what is available before deciding what to do.

InputRequiredNotes
InstructionYesFor example Find the pagination links
OutputMeaning
matchesEvery candidate that was found
matches[0].selectorThe first match's selector
matches[0].descriptionThe first match's description

Agent

Runs a multi-step goal autonomously instead of one action at a time.

InputRequiredNotes
InstructionYesFor example Log in with username admin and password 123, then go to the profile page
OutputMeaning
successWhether the goal was reached
messageWhat the agent did
completedWhether the agent finished its plan

This node is marked as requiring a paid plan. On the hosted deployment that means an active subscription; self-hosted installations are unrestricted.

Send Email

Sends an email through Resend. Requires RESEND_API_KEY.

InputRequiredNotes
ToYesRecipient address
SubjectYesEmail subject
BodyYesEmail body
OutputMeaning
emailIdThe id Resend assigned to the message

All three fields interpolate, so a run can email its own results:

Subject: Run finished for {{ n1.title }}
Body: Extracted {{ n3.result }}
