What it does

Fal Workflow is an agent skill from fal-ai-community/skills. Author and execute multi-step media pipelines on fal.ai. Two modes: (A) declarative workflow JSON files for the fal.ai workflow runtime ("create workflow", "chain models", "image to video pipeline"); (B) imperative genmedia CLI orchestration when scripting locally ("design pipeline", "fan-out generation", "frame bridging", "narrated video", "dataset generation").

Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `references/EXAMPLES.md`, `references/MODELS.md` and `references/PATTERNS.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering AI video generation. It works with fal.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve AI video generation

Example prompts

  • “create workflow”
  • “chain models”
  • “image to video pipeline”
  • “/fal-workflow”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Every node id matches its object key.
  2. Every $node.xxx reference appears in depends.
  3. No string interpolation; variables are entire values.
  4. Schema input has modelId for each field.
  5. Output node depends includes every node it references.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9ca8504. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json and bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • fal.ai

    Also links to:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Fal Workflow loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~16k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,120 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~16k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,120 words (~3,230 tokens).

“This skill covers two complementary ways to build multi-step media pipelines on fal.ai. They share endpoints and concepts but differ in deliverable.”
