Overview

Stubber is an advanced interface that integrates artificial intelligence to streamline processes. It enables visual construction and execution of tasks. Importantly, Stubber fits smoothly with the tools you already use. Whether it's automating routine jobs or making complex tasks simpler, Stubber is here to make your work easier with the power of AI.

What is a Flow In Stubber

In Stubber, a "flow" refers to the mapping, outline, or step-by-step representation of a process, which can be broken down into the following key concepts and components:

Start and End of a Flow

Every flow in Stubber has a clear beginning and end.
The start is a bit fuzzy and abstract, resembling the initial steps of planning a process.
The end is concrete and specific, representing the accomplishment of a well-defined goal.

Actions and States

What Makes Up a Flow:

A flow in Stubber is essentially the mapping, outline, or step-by-step representation of a process.
States: These serve as resting points in your process, where things pause, awaiting the next step or decision.
Actions: Imagine them as specific moments in time when something happens. They can be decisions or updates provided by users.

Understanding Actions and States:

States: Think of them as periods in time where everyone involved is engaged in different actions.
In the Stubber interface, a state is represented by the following symbol:
Actions: Some actions update information within a state, while others lead to moving on to the next steps.
In the Stubber interface, an action is represented by the following symbol:

Stubs in Stubber

What is a Stub:

In Stubber, each run-through of a process is referred to as a "stub."
Picture it as a smart little robot following the mapped-out steps you've laid out in your process definition.

Important Things about Stubs:

A stub can only be in one state at a time.
It can only be in a state that you've specifically defined for the process.
Transitions between states guide everyone involved, showing them the path to completion.
In Stubber, we use the term "stub" to refer to an instance of the process being run.
Stubs are Finite State Machines (FSMs)
A stub can only be in one state at any point in time
A stub can only be in a state that is defined on the template or inherited templates (advanced topic)
Stubs transition state and thus guide people and AIs along a path to completion

Special Note

What a Stubber Flow Is Not:

A Stubber flow is not a traditional workflow. It's not just about tasks in order.
It operates at a higher conceptual level, allowing you to define and structure processes in a flexible and adaptable manner.
