Four things the python SDK turned up, each fixed where every client sees it. A key no port declares is now an error rather than a silent drop, on the return, the yield and the emit alike — the contract the docs already stated. The SDK reads literal yields at sync time, so a typo fails before anything runs, and an emission of one fails the call rather than being logged where nobody looks. NaN and infinity are refused at the port. JSON cannot spell either, so one that travelled came back as a 500, a socket frame that stopped the canvas, or a metric batch the database dropped whole. An artifact input takes `@run:<id>.<output>` or a bare digest, resolved on the engine — so the CLI, the run dialog and a python caller mean the same thing, and a sweep can pass one at all. Node timeouts are off by default. The clock measured silence, which a training node is full of, and remote workers had already stopped enforcing it — their heartbeat reset it. Now a heartbeat proves the agent rather than the node, ninety seconds of nothing fails the call either way, and the engine touches work it is still running so a long node is not redelivered at sixty seconds.

Fluksio
Fluksio is a node-based automation software that brings trust and reliability to your flow. It just works and looks good. Get started by running
pip install fluksio
fluksio serve
and you're ready to go.
For data science
You can turn your existing data science project into a flow by decorating your functions with @node ...
# myresearch/train.py
import fluksio
from fluksio import Port, node
@node(
requires=["dataset", Port("lr", "float")],
provides=[Port("loss", "float", stream=True), Port("weights", "artifact")],
device="gpu", device_policy="prefer",
)
def fit(dataset, lr, epochs=25):
for epoch in range(epochs):
loss = step(...)
yield {"loss": loss} # published as it happens, kept as a series
return {"weights": fluksio.save_artifact("weights.pt")}
... and passing them to a Flow:
# myresearch/pipeline.py
from fluksio import Flow, Port
from myresearch.data import prepare
from myresearch.evaluate import evaluate
from myresearch.train import fit
train = Flow("train", nodes=[prepare, fit, evaluate],
inputs=[Port("lr", "float", initial=0.01)], outputs=["score"])
Fluksio will automatically infer the order of nodes based on the inputs and outputs you defined. When everything is set, you can launch your first run as follows:
fluksio run train --lr 0.05 --wait

Some other features
- Flows: typed messages between nodes, wired by name, edited on a canvas or declared in code. Every change is a commit in a git repository you own.
- Runs: an experiment and a CI-style job are the same entity. Parameters, seed, result, per-node timings, artifacts and the commit it ran at.
- Dashboards: charts and controls bound to the same messages the flows carry, with no separate metrics pipeline.
- Remote workers:
pip install fluksio-workeron the GPU box; it dials out over one websocket, so nothing there has to be reachable.
Fluksio can also be used for facility automation. Visit us on fluksio.com or go straight to our documentation.
