Routing workflows

Problem

• Different topics require different video script styles and tones
• Programming topics need educational, detailed, informative scripts
• Entertainment topics (like surfing) need different approaches—less formal, no lengthy definitions
• A one-size-fits-all prompt won't produce appropriate results for diverse topics

Solution: Routing Workflow

Core Concept

• Route user input through a categorization step before processing
• Direct the input to specialized handling based on its category

Implementation Steps

• Define Genre Categories
• Identify all possible video genres users might request
• Example categories: entertainment, educational, comedy, etc.

• Create Genre-Specific Prompts
• Write customized prompts for each genre
• Educational prompt: requests clear, engaging scripts with examples and thought-provoking questions
• Entertainment prompt: requests trendy, engaging content appropriate for that style

• Routing Step
• Use Claude to categorize the user's input/topic into one of the defined genres
• Claude determines which category the topic belongs to

• Conditional Processing
• Based on Claude's categorization, forward the user input to the appropriate specialized pipeline
• Each pipeline uses its corresponding genre-specific prompt
• Only one processing path executes per request

Benefits

• Tailored output that matches the nature of the topic
• Specialized workflows and tools for each task type
• Consistent tone and style within each genre category

Takeaways

• Route user input through a categorization step to identify the topic's genre before processing
• Create specialized prompts for each genre (educational, entertainment, comedy, etc. ) that define appropriate tone, style, and content approach
• Use Claude to automatically categorize the user's request, then forward it to the matching genre-specific pipeline for tailored output
• This ensures consistent, appropriate tone and style rather than applying one generic prompt to all topics
