This PR implements the AI Condition Block as requested in issue
AUTOMAT-60. The new block enables users to define conditional logic
using natural language descriptions instead of traditional comparison
operators, while maintaining the same yes/no data pass-through
functionality as the existing ConditionBlock.
## Overview
The AI Condition Block uses Large Language Models to evaluate conditions
written in plain English, such as:
- "the input is the body of an email"
- "the input is a City in the USA"
- "the input is an error or a refusal"
## Key Features
**Natural Language Processing**: Users can express complex conditions in
everyday English rather than programming logic, making agent workflows
more intuitive and accessible.
**Consistent Interface**: Maintains the same input/output schema as the
standard ConditionBlock:
- Boolean `result` output indicating condition evaluation
- `yes_output` and `no_output` for conditional data flow
- Optional custom values for yes/no cases
**Robust Error Handling**: Defaults to `false` on AI evaluation failures
to ensure safe operation and prevent workflow interruption.
**Performance Optimized**: Uses minimal token limits (10 tokens) for
true/false responses to reduce latency and API costs.
## Implementation Details
The block is implemented as `AIConditionBlock` in
`backend/blocks/ai_condition.py` and inherits from `AIBlockBase`
following established platform patterns. It includes:
- Proper LLM integration with credential management
- Token usage tracking and statistics
- Comprehensive test mocking for reliable CI/CD
- Full documentation with examples and use cases
## Use Cases
This block enables more sophisticated conditional logic for:
- **Content Classification**: Automatically categorize text, emails, or
documents
- **Data Validation**: Validate inputs using natural language rules
- **Smart Routing**: Route data based on AI-evaluated conditions
- **Error Detection**: Identify and handle error messages or problematic
inputs
- **Quality Control**: Check content against flexible quality standards
## Testing
The implementation includes comprehensive testing that integrates with
the existing platform test suite. All tests pass, including:
- Unit tests with proper LLM response mocking
- Code quality checks (linting, formatting, type checking)
- Security analysis via CodeQL
- Integration testing to ensure proper block discovery and loading
The block is automatically discovered by the platform's block loading
system and is immediately available for use in agent workflows.

<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---
> [!NOTE]
> Introduces `AIConditionBlock` that uses an LLM to evaluate
natural-language conditions and outputs boolean result with yes/no
pass-through, plus accompanying documentation.
>
> - **Backend**:
> - **New block**: `backend/blocks/ai_condition.py`
> - Evaluates natural-language conditions via `llm_call` using
selectable `LlmModel` and credentials.
> - Parses strict true/false responses (with fallback token matching),
yields `result`, `yes_output`/`no_output`, and `error` on
ambiguity/failure.
> - Tracks token usage via `NodeExecutionStats`; includes test
inputs/mocks and `force_json_output=False`.
> - **Docs**:
> - Adds `docs/content/platform/blocks/ai_condition.md` with usage,
inputs/outputs, examples, and considerations.
