## What it does

This skill translates text instructions into connected node graphs for muapi.ai. It links image creation, video rendering, background removal, face swapping, and audio lipsyncing directly in the terminal. The output of one step flows into the next node without manual file moving.

Under the hood, it relies on helper scripts such as `generate-workflow.sh` and the `muapi workflow` CLI suite. It also provides MCP tools so the agent can inspect pipelines in ASCII format, browse existing templates, or trigger runs.

You must install the workspace `muapi-cli` package via `pip` before running workflows. Without that package installed, execution fails immediately. Workflows enforce a strict execution timeout of 10 minutes, and synchronous runs wait at most 120 seconds before requiring asynchronous polling.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill muapi-workflow -a claude-code
```
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill workflow -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/workflow/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/workflow/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill workflow -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/workflow/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill workflow -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/workflow/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills workflow
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/workflow/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill workflow -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --path library/workflow
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/workflow/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills --skill workflow -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/SamurAIGPT/Generative-Media-Skills/tree/HEAD/library/workflow/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- chain text-to-image prompts into video upscaling pipelines
- search the muapi catalog for existing generation workflows
- insert face-swap or lipsync steps into existing media graphs
- execute multi-node workflows and download outputs locally

## Example prompts
- Create a workflow: generate an image with flux-dev, then upscale it to 4K
- Search existing muapi workflows for ugc video creation and list input requirements
- Edit workflow wf_123 to replace the kling video model with veo3

description: Build, run, and visualize multi-step AI generation workflows. The AI architect translates natural language descriptions into connected node graphs — chain image generation, video creation, enhancement, and editing into automated pipelines.

# AI Workflow Builder

Chain any combination of muapi.ai generation steps into automated pipelines. The AI architect converts your plain-language description into a runnable node graph.

## Prerequisites

Always ensure the `muapi` CLI is up-to-date before running any commands. Reinstall from source at the start of every session:

```bash
pip install --upgrade /path/to/muapi-cli
```

Replace `/path/to/muapi-cli` with the actual path to the `muapi-cli` directory in the workspace (the directory containing `pyproject.toml`).

## Core Operations

1. **Generate** (`generate-workflow.sh`) — AI architect creates a workflow from a description
2. **Discover** (`discover-workflow.sh`) — Find a relevant existing workflow by natural language
3. **Edit** (`generate-workflow.sh --workflow-id`) — Modify an existing workflow with a prompt
4. **Interactive Run** (`interactive-run.sh`) — Prompt for inputs and execute a workflow
5. **Run** (`run-workflow.sh`) — Execute a workflow, poll node-by-node, collect outputs
6. **CLI** (`muapi workflow`) — Full CRUD + visualization directly from the terminal

## Agent Guided Discovery & Selection

As an AI agent, you have the ability to read and understand the purpose of available workflows to select the best one for the user's task (e.g., "create a UGC video").

1. **Discover**: Fetch the catalog of available workflows and their descriptions in JSON format.
   ```bash
   muapi workflow discover --output-json
   ```
2. **Match (Internal Reasoning)**: Use your LLM capabilities to analyze the `name`, `category`, and `description` fields of the returned workflows. Find the best match for the user's intent.
3. **Analyze**: If you find a promising candidate, inspect its structure to ensure it has the necessary nodes and parameters.
   ```bash
   muapi workflow get <workflow_id>
   ```
   **CRITICAL RULE**: The output of `muapi workflow get` will include an "API Inputs" table. You MUST read this table to understand what inputs are required.
4. **Choose & Confirm & Prompt User**:
   - If one workflow is a perfect match, you MUST ask the user to provide the exact values for the required API inputs before executing it. **Never invent or guess input values (like prompts, URLs, etc.) on your own.**
   - If multiple workflows are highly relevant, present the options to the user with their descriptions and ask them to confirm which one to use, and also ask for the required inputs.
