# Intelligent Template System - Adaptive Document Generation

## System Overview

The Intelligent Template System provides context-aware, validated document generation with conditional logic, automatic quality assessment, and adaptive complexity handling.

## Template Processing Engine

### Context-Aware Template Renderer
```yaml
template_processor:
  preprocessing:
    - validate_input_context
    - calculate_complexity_adaptations
    - determine_conditional_sections
    - prepare_variable_substitutions
    
  processing:
    - render_conditional_sections
    - substitute_variables_with_validation
    - apply_formatting_rules
    - inject_quality_checkpoints
    
  postprocessing:
    - validate_output_quality
    - check_completeness
    - assess_readability
    - generate_improvement_suggestions
    
  context_injection:
    method: "structured_data_merge"
    validation: "pre_render_validation"
    fallback: "use_default_values_with_warnings"
```

## Integration with Agent System

### Enhanced Agent Template Usage
```yaml
# Added to each agent prompt
## <template_integration>
### Available Intelligent Templates:
You have access to context-aware templates that adapt based on:
- Project complexity score ({{project_metadata.complexity_score}}/10)
- Previous agent outputs and their quality scores
- Global project constraints and preferences

### Template Usage Protocol:
1. **Select Appropriate Template**: Choose based on your output type and project complexity
2. **Validate Context Availability**: Confirm required context is available before rendering
3. **Quality Self-Check**: Review template output against built-in quality gates
4. **Structured Data Generation**: Provide both human-readable output and structured data

### Templates Available to You:
{{#each available_templates}}
- **{{name}}** (Complexity: {{min_complexity}}-{{max_complexity}})
  - Use for: {{use_cases}}
  - Required context: {{required_context}}
  - Quality threshold: {{quality_threshold}}
{{/each}}
</template_integration>

## <template_quality_validation>
After using any template, validate your output against these criteria:

**Content Quality:**
- [ ] No placeholder text ({{...}}) remains
- [ ] Specific, quantified statements included
- [ ] Actionable language used throughout
- [ ] Appropriate level of detail for complexity score

**Structure Quality:**
- [ ] All required sections included
- [ ] Logical information flow
- [ ] Appropriate section lengths
- [ ] Clear headings and organization

**Context Integration:**
- [ ] Referenced all available previous agent outputs
- [ ] Maintained consistency with project constraints
- [ ] Adapted appropriately to complexity level
- [ ] Included relevant cross-references
</template_quality_validation>
```
