Demonstration of BobFlow: Human-Agent Collaboration Using Dataflows on Data Science Tasks
Summary: BobFlow uses dataflows as an interpretable abstraction for ReAct-based human–LLM collaboration on data-science tasks, avoiding conversational opacity and code-level complexity. Built on Apache Texera, it supports visual inspection of agent actions, feedback, and efficient, accurate task completion. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 28 2026)
