Actions

An action is a set of tasks that you can trigger to run sequentially.

One of the core foundations of Chibi is that you have full control to create precisely the tools you need to accomplish your goals.

Actions are one of the ways you do this. They're sequences of tasks that you craft into reusable tools that support your needs.

In Chibi you create actions to perform a wide range of tasks, each tailored to different aspects of your content creation process.

What is the benefit of actions over very long prompts?

Actions allow you to break down complex requests into smaller, concise steps that the AI model can better respond to.

When using complex prompts there is often an "in the middle" problem that occurs. What happens is the AI "remembers" the beginning and end of a prompt but "muddies" the middle/end. This can lead to 'missing' information or context in the output.

Larger models tend to better handle complex prompts but they can still perform poorly when given a really long prompt that asks for too many things. They are also slower than smaller models.

Breaking down a long, multi step prompt into a series of steps within an action -- where each step is clearly defined -- dramatically improves results. It also means you can take advantage of models that run faster, create unique results, and cost significantly less.
