Learning Focus

Clear directive patterns for reliable agent orchestration

Key Principles Extracted

  1. Contextual Clarity

    • Provide task purpose, audience, workflow position
    • Define success criteria explicitly
    • Applied in: Every template's "Task Context" section

  2. Sequential Instructions

    • Use numbered steps in order
    • Be specific about outputs
    • Applied in: All templates have 3-7 numbered execution steps

  3. "New Employee" Metaphor

    • Explain norms, styles, methods
    • Applied in: Template role definitions and detailed instructions

  4. Precision and Specificity

    • Exact language, no ambiguity
    • Define all terms
    • Applied in: Parameter documentation, expected outputs

  5. Example-Driven

System Capabilities

Core Innovation: Pluggable Templates

Problem Solved: Traditional infinite loops hardcode agent instructions in orchestrator commands, making them:

  • Difficult to reuse for different tasks
  • Hard to modify or improve
  • Inconsistent in quality
  • Not composable

Solution: Pluggable template system where:

  • Templates are reusable blueprints
  • Parameters customize behavior
  • Orchestrator loads, instantiates, deploys
  • Consistent quality through structured design

Template System Features

  1. Parameterization

    • {{PARAMETER}} placeholder syntax
    • Type-safe parameter definitions
    • Required vs optional parameters
    • Default values for optional params

  2. Structured Instructions

    • 11 required sections
    • 3-7 execution steps per template
    • Expected outputs for each step
    • Validation checklists

  3. Role-Based Design

    • Clear agent role definitions
    • Expertise areas specified
    • Working style guidance
    • Responsibility boundaries

  4. Quality Assurance

    • Built-in validation templates
    • Analysis templates for metrics
    • Self-verification checklists
    • Evidence-based reporting

Technical Implementation

Parameter Substitution Mechanism

Template (before):

Read file: `{{SPEC_FILE}}`
Write to: `{{OUTPUT_DIR}}/{{FILE_NAME}}`
Learn from: `{{WEB_URL}}`

Orchestrator mapping:

{
  "SPEC_FILE": "specs/example.md",
  "OUTPUT_DIR": "viz_output",
  "FILE_NAME": "viz_network_001.html",
  "WEB_URL": "https://d3js.org/d3-force"
}

Instantiated task (after):

Read file: `specs/example.md`
Write to: `viz_output/viz_network_001.html`
Learn from: `https://d3js.org/d3-force`

Orchestration Flow

Phase 1: Template Loading
├── Read template file
├── Parse structure
└── Validate completeness

Phase 2: Context Preparation
├── Load specification
├── Analyze existing iterations
└── Prepare URL strategy (if web template)

Phase 3: Task Instantiation
├── For each iteration:
│   ├── Create parameter mapping
│   ├── Substitute placeholders
│   └── Verify uniqueness
└── Result: N complete agent tasks

Phase 4: Parallel Deployment
├── Launch agents with instantiated tasks
├── Agents work independently
└── Collect results

Phase 5: Wave Management (infinite mode)
├── Assess wave completion
├── Prepare next batch
└── Continue until context limits

Phase 6: Summary
├── Generate summary report
├── Quality verification
└── User-facing completion report

Progressive Learning (Web-Enhanced)

URL Strategy Structure:

{
  "URL_STRATEGY": {
    "foundation": ["beginner URLs"],
    "intermediate": ["intermediate URLs"],
    "advanced": ["advanced URLs"],
    "expert": ["expert URLs"]
  }
}

Assignment Logic:

  • Iterations 1-5: Foundation
  • Iterations 6-10: Intermediate
  • Iterations 11-20: Advanced
  • Iterations 21+: Expert

Dynamic Fallback: When pre-defined URLs exhausted, use WebSearch to find relevant resources.

  • Sequential instructions
  • New employee approach
  • Precision and examples

3. Composability

Templates can reference other templates, enabling meta-workflows and pipeline orchestration.

4. Progressive Learning Integration

Web-research-generator template supports URL strategy for progressive skill acquisition.

5. Quality Assurance Built-In

Dedicated analyzer and validator templates make QA a first-class workflow.

6. Template Creation Tools

/create-template command makes it easy to extend the system with new template types.

7. Parameter Type System

Structured parameter documentation with types, requirements, defaults, and examples.

8. Self-Verification

Validation checklists enable agents to self-verify before task completion.

Use Case Examples

1. Learning Campaign

Generate 20 D3 visualizations with progressive web learning:

/infinite-templated web-research-generator specs/d3_spec.md d3_out 20 params/d3_urls.json

2. Component Library

Create 50 unique UI components:

/infinite-templated code-generator specs/ui_spec.md components 50

3. QA Pipeline

Generate → Analyze → Validate → Remediate:

/infinite-templated code-generator spec.md out 20
/infinite-templated analyzer criteria.md analysis.md 1
/infinite-templated validator rules.md validation.md 1

4. Infinite Learning

Continuous generation until context limits:

/infinite-templated web-research-generator spec.md output infinite params/progressive.json

5. Custom Workflow

Create domain-specific template and use it:

/create-template api-tester testing "Test REST APIs"
/infinite-templated api-tester test_cases.md reports/api_test.md 1
