New Block Creation

Read docs/platform/block-sdk-guide.md first for the full guide.

Steps

• Provider config (if external service): create _config.py with ProviderBuilder

• Block file in backend/blocks/ (from autogpt_platform/backend/ ):

• Generate a UUID once with uuid.uuid4() , then hard-code that string as id (IDs must be stable across imports)

• Input(BlockSchema) and Output(BlockSchema) classes

• async def run that yield s output fields

• Files: use store_media_file() with "for_block_output" for outputs

• Test: poetry run pytest 'backend/blocks/test/test_block.py::test_available_blocks[MyBlock]' -xvs

• Format: poetry run format

Rules

• Analyze interfaces: do inputs/outputs connect well with other blocks in a graph?

• Use top-level imports, avoid duck typing

• Always use for_block_output for block outputs
