TypeError: object dict can’t be used in ‘await’ expression

This is a common mistake when defining the graph. The internals of graphai expect all nodes to be defined with async def. When defining a node with def we will see this error: 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/app/.venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/graphai/graph.py", line 351, in execute
    output = await current_node.invoke(input=state, state=self.state)

The solution is to always define nodes using async def. For example: 

# WRONG:
@node
def my_node(input: dict) -> dict:
    return {"output": "Hello, world!"}

# DO THIS INSTEAD:
@node
async def my_node(input: dict) -> dict:
    return {"output": "Hello, world!"}
