Griptape Nodes is a powerful, visual, node-based workflow builder designed for professional artists and creators. Build and execute complex AI workflows through the cloud-based Griptape Nodes IDE - an intuitive drag-and-drop interface.
This repository contains the Griptape Nodes Engine - the local component that runs securely on your machine, providing a performant foundation for workflow execution. The engine is published to PyPI as the griptape-nodes-engine library and is launched by the griptape-nodes application. To develop against the engine with a local checkout, see CONTRIBUTING.md.
✨ Key Features:
- 🎯 Visual Workflow Editor: Design and connect nodes representing different AI tasks, tools, and logic through the cloud-based IDE
- 🏠 Local Engine: Run workflows securely on your own machine or infrastructure
- 🐍 Portable Python Workflows: Workflows are saved as self-executable Python files for portability, debugability, and learning
- 🌐 Multi-Device Access: Client/server architecture lets you access your workflows from any device
- 🧩 Extensible: Build your own custom nodes and libraries to extend functionality
- ⚡ Scriptable Interface: Interact with and control flows programmatically

⚙️ Initial Configuration (Automatic on First Run):
- The first time you run the engine command (
griptape-nodesorgtn), it will guide you through the initial setup: - 📁 Workspace Directory: You'll be prompted to choose a directory where Griptape Nodes will store configurations, project files, secrets (
.env), and generated assets. You can accept the default (<current_directory>/GriptapeNodes) or specify a custom path. - 🔑 Griptape Cloud API Key: Return to the Griptape Nodes setup page in your browser, click "Generate API Key", copy the key, and paste it when prompted in the terminal.
- The first time you run the engine command (
-
🚀 Start the Engine: After configuration, start the engine by running:
griptape-nodes
(or the shorter alias
gtn) -
🔗 Connect Workflow Editor: Refresh the Griptape Nodes Workflow Editor page in your browser. It should now connect to your running engine.
You're now ready to start building flows! 🎉 For more detailed setup options and troubleshooting, see the full Documentation.
