hooks/scrape

Hook Scraping — scrape opener hooks from creator channels on YouTube/TikTok.

Category: hooks
Source: workflows/hooks/scrape.py

Input Schema

Field	Type	Default	Description
channels	any[]	—
max_per_channel	integer	30
platform	string	"youtube"
regenerate	object	—	When 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.
shorts_only	boolean	true
variants	integer	1	Number of independent variant executions (1–10). When > 1, the engine runs the workflow N times with different sampling, producing N outputs.

Output Schema

No schema defined.

Task Pipeline

Task	Description

Run-spec example

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: hooks/scrape

# Optional fields — copy any line(s) under `input:` and uncomment to set:
#   channels: []
#
#   max_per_channel: 30
#
#   platform: youtube
#
#   shorts_only: true
#

input: {}

Run it locally:

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

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

curl -X POST 'https://gofabric.dev/v1/workflows/runs?name=hooks/scrape' \
  -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.).

Warnings

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