Chat Trigger → Receives user request 2. AI Drafting Loop → Generates & refines JSON article via AI agents 3. Perplexity Research Call → Deep-dive content generation 4. Editorial Loop → Up to 3 AI-driven revisions 5. Contentful Publish → Pushes final JSON into CMS --- 📦 Node-by-Node Breakdown Webhook: Chat Trigger Type: HTTP Webhook (POST /webhook/knowledge-article) Payload: Purpose: Kicks off the workflow on that chat prompt. AI Writer Agent Inputs: chatInput or existing article JSON Outputs: Purpose: Generates the article skeleton (metadata + initial content). HTTP Request: Perplexity Content Method: POST URL: Body: Purpose: Retrieves a long-form, deeply researched draft for the article body. Function: Format Output & Citations Logic: - Parse raw Perplexity response - Extract source URIs - Append them under a sources markdown list Editorial Loop 1. Initialize Counter to 0 2. AI Editor Agent - Reads draft JSON - Returns either: - action: "rewrite" + improvements: [...] - or action: "submit" 3. Merge Improvements (if rewriting) - Applies suggested updates to JSON fields 4. Limit Check - Stops after 3 iterations or on "submit" HTTP Request: Publish to Contentful Method: PUT URL: Headers: - Authorization: Bearer <token> - Content-Type: application/vnd.contentful.management.v1+json Body: Maps JSON → Contentful entry fields Outcome: Publishes the finalized article live. 🔍 Design Rationale & Best Practices Separation of Concerns Writer vs. Editor agents isolate creative drafting from quality review. Idempotent Loop Counter + action flags prevent infinite retries. Extensibility Swap in different research APIs or CMS targets with minimal changes. Structured JSON Ensures predictable input/output for each node.
