What is an interactive node in this context?

An interactive node is a specific component within a FastGPT workflow that pauses execution to wait for user input, such as filling out a form or making a selection.

How is the history handled when a workflow resumes?

The skill includes logic to rewrite or trim conversation histories to ensure the AI context remains clean after a user provides their interaction input.

Does it support complex forms or just simple buttons?

It supports a wide range of interactions, including simple single-selects (userSelect), complex multi-field forms (formInput), and even sub-workflow interactions.

Can I create custom UI for these interactions?

Yes, the skill provides detailed guides for creating React components for both the end-user chat interface and the administrative workflow editor.

How does the skill handle workflow state during a pause?

It utilizes an 'isEntry' flag management system and a skip node queue to ensure the workflow knows exactly where to resume once the user provides the requested data.
