ComfyUI: Automated video generation and stitching with Hermes Agent

Demo summary
The Hermes Agent is used to generate four separate videos of trees using LTX 2.3 in ComfyUI and then automatically stitch them together with 1-second crossfades using a tool call to FFmpeg.
Step-by-step
- Prompt the Hermes Agent to generate four videos of different trees in specific biomes using LTX 2.3
- Specify the resolution as 1280 x 720
- Instruct the agent to stitch the videos together using FFmpeg
- Set a 1-second crossfade transition between the clips
- Monitor the agent as it parses the LTX 2.3 template and extracts the node structure
- Observe the agent's terminal output for prompt validation errors or broken node schemas
- Allow the agent to self-correct by checking the local server's node types and schemas
Options
- Run the four generation jobs concurrently if using a cloud-based pro account
Watch out for
- The agent may hallucinate node configurations or attempt to use broken schemas like LTX empty batch size or VA decode tiled
- Users must have existing knowledge of ComfyUI to troubleshoot and fix errors when the agent fails to validate prompts
Tips
- Expect initial failures and allow the agent leeway to iterate on the code
- Use agentic control to handle complex tasks like video editing and trimming that are difficult to perform manually within ComfyUI nodes
- Maintain a 'chill' attitude toward command failures to avoid burnout, as even the agent rarely nails the workflow on the first attempt
Highlights
“This is where the skill gap makes it very annoying to try to use these tools if you don't already know how to use the software because you still have to chase the errors down.”
