File and asset handling in Monkeys
File Handling
Files and generated assets are managed through the main backend asset modules, object storage, and tool services.
Local deployments use MinIO by default. Production deployments usually use an S3-compatible object store configured in the owning service.
Common File Flows
- Upload files into Studio assets.
- Pass file references into workflow tasks.
- Let tools generate media or documents.
- Save generated outputs as assets.
- Use presigned URLs when tools need temporary object access.
