What the data for this category looks like
Daily documents for mold design and manufacturing include mold design task sheets, DFM reports, part drawings, machining process cards, mold trial reports, mold modification notices, and mold records. Data sources include customer product models, mold flow or forming simulations, CAD/CAM, machining and measurement data, and mold trial samples. Updates are performed per individual mold project, each mold trial, or each mold modification. Documents include specialized fields such as the number of mold cavities, material grade, hardness requirements, and mold trial defect types, with no universal standardized format.
What constraints these characteristics impose on workflow orchestration
Mold design and manufacturing data sources are scattered and updated frequently during project iterations. Workflows must support connecting to multiple system data sources and dynamic triggering. There are numerous specialized document fields with no unified format. Workflow configuration variables must be used to store exclusive fields for different documents. Single project cycles require repeated calls to mold trial and mold modification data, so workflows must support reuse of historical session variables. Additionally, mold delays or defects will impact mass production timelines. Verification links must be added to workflows to prevent launching invalid processes.
How to set the configuration
This configuration is based on FastGPT v4.17.0.
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Global variable isolation rule | Isolate by user ID | Each mold project is managed by a different user, to prevent identical-named variables from conflicting across projects |
| Historical context loading node | Associate with the variables parameter | Call saved historical session data such as mold trial reports and mold modification notices |
| Custom guidance node | Preset mold-specific review prompts | Match scenario requirements for process document drafting and abnormal report writing |
| Workflow trigger condition | Bind nodeId to project node | Start the workflow only when new mold trial or mold modification data is received |
| Timeout threshold | 300–600 seconds | Adapt to the time required for mold data retrieval and AI professional analysis |
Three common mistakes
- When calling the workflow API, the context does not take effect. The symptom is that the interface return result does not carry historical mold trial data. The cause is that the
variablesparameter of the corresponding session is not bound in the request. - Global variable scope is confused. The symptom is that mold project variables from different users overwrite each other. The cause is that the isolation rule by user ID is not configured.
- Custom guidance does not take effect. The symptom is that replies still use the default recommended questions prompt. The cause is that the custom guidance node is not added to the workflow.
How to confirm the configuration is complete
- Send a test request, check whether the returned result includes the mold trial defect data saved in the historical session.
- Switch to different user IDs to send requests, confirm that the values of identical-named global variables do not interfere with each other.
- Trigger the workflow, check whether the preset professional guidance prompt appears before the reply.
- View the workflow log, confirm that the trigger condition matches the project node bound to
nodeId.
