Core functionality all seems to work now. Just stuck on why the generate_skymodels step is still executed even though the array length checked in the when condition should be >0.

why the generate_skymodels step is still executed even though the array length checked in the when condition should be >0.

This looks like it's maybe just a Toil oddity.

Functionality all works, but the vlass starting models are not used it seems. A manual facetselfcal run against the same VLASS image yields wildly different astrometry even if I completely remove the generat_skymodels step from the CWL code as a test, so I suspect the pipeline is still generating a point source and passing that.

Left to right: VLASS image, pipeline image 9, manual image 3

It looks like the difference may be in the PyBDSF commands for source finding. The facetselfcal-generated model has more components than what skynet outputs:
