AIComputeStringToStringOp

General-purpose string-to-string AI transformation — apply any natural-language instruction to a string input.

Inputs

Field Type Description
Input *string Input string to transform

Outputs

Field Type Description
Result string Transformed string output

Reasoning is captured by WithReasoningLog — no graph output needed.

Params

Key Type Default Description
operation string required Full natural-language instruction for the transformation
max_retries string "3" Number of retries on error

Typical Use Cases

  • Translation to another language
  • Tone adjustment (formal → casual, passive → active)
  • Template filling from a context string
  • Text reformatting (prose → bullet points, etc.)
  • Any string→string AI task without a specific op

Most flexible AI op. When the output type is a known structured value, prefer a more specific op: AIBoolOp for yes/no, AIScoreOp for 0–1 scores, AIExtractStringSliceOp for lists. Use this op when the output is free-form text.

Complete Runnable Example

Translates an English business sentence to Spanish using a plain-language operation instruction.
