global/formula-extract

Formula Extraction — analyze reference videos and extract reusable style DNA.

Category: global
Source: workflows/formula/extract.py

FieldTypeDefaultDescription
formulaobject
formula_namestring"untitled"
media_pathobject
regenerateobjectWhen set, this run is a regeneration. Workflows may read direction / keep / extra_instructions to modulate prompts; the engine persists parent_run_id and parent_variant_index as run lineage columns.
variantsinteger1Number of independent variant executions (1–10). When > 1, the engine runs the workflow N times with different sampling, producing N outputs.
video_pathobject
video_pathsany[]

No schema defined.

prepare_videos → analyze_all_videos → synthesize_formula → save_formula
TaskDescription
prepare_videosValidate input and prepare video paths for analysis.
analyze_all_videosRun the single-video analysis on each reference video, collect results.
synthesize_formulaCombine per-video analyses into a single formula.
save_formulaPersist the formula to a JSON file.

Save the YAML below as my-run.yaml, edit the values, and run with the CLI or POST it to the API. Required fields are uncommented; optional knobs are documented above the input: block — copy any line under input: and uncomment to set.

workflow: global/formula-extract
# Optional fields — copy any line(s) under `input:` and uncomment to set:
# formula: null
#
# formula_name: untitled
#
# media_path: null
#
# video_path: null
#
# video_paths: []
#
input: {}

Run it locally:

Terminal window
fab-workflow --from-file my-run.yaml

Or submit over the wire — the same file is the request body:

Terminal window
curl -X POST 'https://gofabric.dev/v1/workflows/runs?name=global/formula-extract' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer fab_xxx' \
-H 'content-type: application/yaml' \
--data-binary @my-run.yaml

Every workflow also accepts the universal WorkflowInput fields — variants (1–10 fan-out) and regenerate (creative-direction hints with run lineage). See Run-specs (YAML / TOML / JSON) for the full top-level shape (metadata, priority, bundle, parent, etc.).

  • Last user task save_formula has no Pydantic return type — workflow output schema is null. Declare a WorkflowOutput subclass and pass it to Flow(output=…) for a strict contract.
