Research direction

Start by tracing the Python API's current handling of user-supplied input and output types, then follow how operator outputs connect to subsequent inputs. Done means the API derives each operator's types automatically through the chain, without requiring the user to provide them.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The input and output types should not be given by the user but derived automatically in code:

output type of operator is the input type of the next operator, and so on
