Templates Gallery

Browse ready-to-run example workflows and use them as starting points.

The Templates Gallery is a curated library of example workflows you can run and customize without starting from scratch. Open it from the Templates button in the app header or by navigating to /templates.

Templates Grid

Every template is a real, runnable workflow exported from the editor. Templates ship with NodeTool and cover:

Category Examples
Image generation Movie Posters, Character Sheets, Product Shots
Image editing Background Removal, Upscaling, Style Transfer
Agents Research agents, RAG Q&A, multi-step tool runners
Document intelligence Chat-with-Docs, PDF extraction, data enrichment
Audio & video Transcription, summarization, text-to-speech
Data pipelines CSV ingestion, chart generation, scheduled reports
Realtime Voice agents, streaming transcription

Browse the full list on the Workflow Examples page.

Opening a Template

  1. Click a template tile to preview its graph.
  2. Hit Open (or double-click) to load it into the editor as a new workflow.
  3. Save a copy with Ctrl/⌘ + S — edits never modify the original template.

Filtering and Searching

The gallery supports:

  • Tag filter — click any tag (e.g., “agent”, “image”) to narrow the list.
  • Search bar — match by title, tags, or node names used inside the workflow.
  • Sort — recently added, most popular, shortest.

Anatomy of a Template Card

Each tile shows:

  • Thumbnail — a static render of the graph.
  • Title and description — a one-line summary.
  • Input badges — the required inputs (e.g., “Text”, “Image”).
  • Output badges — what the workflow produces.
  • Required models — any models you need downloaded first.

If a template requires a model you don’t have, opening it shows the Recommended Models dialog so you can install them in one click.

Submitting Your Own Template

Community templates ship through the examples/ directory of the NodeTool repo:

  1. Save your workflow, then use nodetool workflows export-dsl <id> to export it as a TypeScript DSL file.
  2. Add it to examples/<category>/<slug>.ts in a PR.
  3. Include a short README — 1 paragraph, 1 screenshot of the graph.
