Chapter 1 — Foundations

If this is your first day, this is the chapter to read. It introduces every term, agent, and tool you'll see across the rest of the wiki. The goal: when an agent says "the Visual Planner returned the storyboard" or "run the Generation Runner on the .nbflow", you know what they mean.

What you'll learn

  • What AI image and video generation actually is
  • What a prompt, an avatar, a reference image, and a workflow are
  • The 6 pipeline stages from brief to finished video
  • Who the agents are (the Manager, Script Writer, Visual Planner, Image Prompter, Veo Prompter, Generation Runner)
  • The tools you'll be using (PatchWork, Generation Runner, G-Labs) at an introductory level
  • Operational ground rules (cost awareness, security, pipeline limits)

Sections

  1. The Basics — what AI gen is, prompts, avatars, workflows, candidates
  2. Pipeline Overview — the 6 stages
  3. The Cast — every agent, what they specialize in
  4. The Tools — PatchWork, Generation Runner, G-Labs at intro level
