Create with VS Code

VS Code can build Nodaro workflows for you in agent mode, through the Nodaro MCP server. You describe the steps in plain words. The agent saves them as connected nodes on your Nodaro canvas, and runs them. This page follows one real request: a workflow that turns a product description into a product photo and an 8-second video ad.

To connect VS Code first, follow Connect VS Code. It takes one install link and a sign-in with your Nodaro account.

The request

We ran this example from Claude Code, through the same Nodaro MCP server that VS Code connects to. The VS Code agent calls the same tools, with the same models, settings and prices.

The workflow the agent built

The agent called create_workflow once, with three nodes and two connections:

• Product is a Text node with the description: "Product photo of a brass desk lamp with a pleated linen shade on a walnut desk".
• Product photo adds the same style to every description, with prompt post text: "soft evening window light, shallow depth of field, clean minimal styling, premium e-commerce photography, no text, no logos".
• Video ad opens on the photo and asks for a slow dolly-in, a quiet evening room and soft piano music.

Because the style lives in the node, the description stays short. Change the Product text, and the next run makes a different product in the same style.

The run

The agent then called run_workflow. Nodaro ran the nodes in order, and each node passed its result to the next one.

Building the workflow cost nothing. Only the two nodes that made a result cost credits.

Run it again with another product

The workflow is saved, so the next product is one call. Ask the agent, or call run_workflow with a new text for the Product node:

{
  "workflow_id": "<your workflow id>",
  "inputs": {
    "product": "Product photo of a walnut cutting board on a marble counter"
  }
}

The key in inputs is the node's id, and the value replaces the node's text for that run. Your own code can run the same workflow through the Nodaro API, so a new product page can get its photo and its video ad without anyone opening the editor.

Open it on the canvas

Every workflow made through MCP is saved in a project named mcp in your Nodaro projects. Open the workflow there, and you see the three nodes, their connections and the results of the run. Change a model, edit a prompt or add a node, and the agent sees your changes the next time it reads the workflow. Projects and workflows lists the tools that read and change workflows.

Connect VS Code

1. Open the Install in VS Code link on Connect VS Code. VS Code opens with Nodaro filled in.
2. Confirm the install, start the server and sign in with your Nodaro account.
3. Switch the chat to agent mode and describe the workflow you want.

The same tools work in Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor.
