Quick Start

Get your first workflow running in under 5 minutes.

Step 1 — Create an account

Go to opensource-ai-agent.uk/login and sign up with Google or email. Community plan is free — no credit card needed.

Step 2 — Open the workflow canvas

After signing in you land on the workflow canvas. The node palette is on the left. Drag any node onto the canvas to start.

Step 3 — Use AI Build

Click ✨ AI Build in the top bar and describe your workflow in plain English:

Create a Gmail to WhatsApp notification workflow that checks inbox every 5 minutes and sends the sender email and subject as a WhatsApp message

The AI will generate the full workflow with connected nodes.

Step 4 — Run your workflow

Click ▶ Run in the top right. Results appear in each node's output panel.

Node Types

Canvas & Editor

Adding nodes

Drag any node from the left palette onto the canvas. You can also double-click the canvas to open a node search.

Moving nodes

Click and drag any node to reposition it. Use scroll to zoom in and out. Middle-click or space+drag to pan.

Node properties

Click any node to open its properties panel on the right. Fill in the fields to configure what the node does.

Running a workflow

Click ▶ Run to execute the full workflow. Watch nodes turn green as they complete. Click any node after running to see its output.

Saving

Click 💾 Save Workflow or use Ctrl+S. Workflows are saved to your account and accessible from any device.

Connections

Connect nodes by dragging from the output dot (right side) of one node to the input dot (left side) of another. Data flows from left to right through the connections.

Data passing

Each node receives the output of the previous node as {{input}}. Use this in LLM prompts and code nodes:

Process this email: {{input.subject}} from {{input.from}}

Branching

Use a Condition node to branch. The true path fires when the condition passes, false path when it fails.

Templates

Click 📋 Templates in the top bar to browse pre-built workflows. Categories include:

• Blockchain & Finance — crypto trading, supply chain, KYC
• Cybersecurity — phishing monitor, office alerts
• Security — CCTV anomaly detection
• Healthcare — NHS repeat prescribing, medicines reconciliation
• ERP Control & Operations — finance, HR, payroll, procurement
• E-commerce — Shopify, abandoned cart, reviews
• AI — RAG search, email auto-responder

Click any template to load it onto the canvas, then customise as needed.
