What it does

The Input Node provides a small key/value widget you can drop onto the canvas. Connect its output to any node input to automatically mark that slot as a required input for the agent. The backend behavior is unchanged; the connection simply fills the agent’s inputs list for you.

The node has two fields:

  • key (required): allowed characters a–z A–Z 0–9 . - _
  • value (optional): left empty to require a value at run time

Run behavior

When you click Run, if an Input Node connected to a required input has an empty value, the editor centers on that Input Node and highlights it, so you can fill the missing value quickly.

How to add

Input/Output helper nodes don’t appear in search or the components menu. Use the green chevrons “Input” button in the left toolbar to place one on the canvas.
