Blank Node
Function
The Blank Node is similar to the Output Node but has the following important differences:
- The Blank Node does not include any platform preset prompts. Users can fully leverage their prompt engineering skills to create custom prompts. These prompts can flexibly reference system variables or custom output variables to achieve the desired functionality.
- The Blank Node does not send text to the client by default (this can be enabled via settings), whereas the Output Node will always send a message to the client.
- The Blank Node does not include the conversation history by default (this can be enabled via settings), whereas the Output Node always includes the conversation history.
In summary, the Blank Node is like a blank canvas, allowing you to freely and flexibly unleash your creativity. You can also use various tools (variables) provided by the platform to enhance your creation.
When used correctly, the Blank Node can achieve many useful functions, such as:
- Assignment operations, refer to the Basics of Agent Programming for the assignment section.
- No-op, which is a dummy node that does nothing. It can be used to organize the flow, refer to the Basics of Agent Programming for the concurrency section.
The Blank Prompt Node has the following properties:
Custom Prompt
Completely custom prompts that do not contain any system preset prompts.
Generation Method
You can choose between large language model generation or sending the original text.
Include History
By default, this is turned off. If enabled, the conversation history will be sent to the large language model.
