Organize a video library
Discover what’s in a video collection, find the best organization strategy, then categorize everything - in a single multi-turn session.
What you’ll build
A three-step workflow that produces a complete library catalog: overview, organization axes, then categorized videos. Each step builds on the previous one using session context.
Prerequisites
- Complete the Quickstart to create a knowledge store with at least one item in
readystatus. - Read Create a response to understand the request and response format.
- Best with 10+ videos for meaningful organization.
Step 1: Get a collection overview
Start a new session by requesting a high-level overview. Jockey creates a session and returns its ID for follow-up turns.
Step 2: Discover organization axes
Continue the session to ask for organization recommendations. Jockey uses the overview context from step 1 to suggest strategies scored by effectiveness.
Step 3: Categorize by the best axis
Use the recommended axis from step 2 to organize every video into categories. The session context carries forward, so Jockey knows which axis to apply.
Shortcut: organize by known criteria
If you already know your criteria, skip steps 1-2 and organize directly. Use instructions to set the librarian role and specify categories in the prompt.
Example criteria you can use:
Variations
- Multi-axis catalog: Run step 3 multiple times with different axes from step 2
- Hierarchical: After the first organization, follow up: “Now sub-organize the [category] group by difficulty level”
- Export: Pipe the JSON output to a file for use in your CMS or DAM system
