This example demonstrates the full workflow of generating InfoTech primers
using MarkiTect's Prompt Dependency Resolution infrastructure.

Features demonstrated:
- Artifact creation and storage with content-based addressing
- PromptTemplate with @{macro} resolution across multiple spaces
- Automatic dependency tracking and graph construction
- Provenance tracing from outputs back to inputs
- Visualization export (Mermaid format)
- Incremental execution with change detection

Files added:
- generate_primers.py: Complete working example
- README.md: Quick start guide and architecture overview
- TUTORIAL.md: Comprehensive 500+ line tutorial
- templates/generate-primer.md: Template with macros
- artifacts/topics/: ETL and Microservices topic definitions
- artifacts/guidelines/: Authoring rules and research protocol
- prepdr/: Original manual system (preserved for reference)

Example output:
- Generates 2 primers (ETL, Microservices)
- Creates 8 artifacts across 4 information spaces
- Records 8 dependency edges in SQLite database
- Exports dependency graph visualization

Run with: cd examples/content-generator && python generate_primers.py

# Primer Authoring Rules
**Status:** Draft
**Intended Audience:** Human authors and AI systems generating or validating primers
**Purpose:** Ensure primers are precise, stable, and suitable as shared context for humans and AI agents
---
## 1. What a Primer Is (Normative)
An **InfoTechPrimer** is a **short, structured reference document** that establishes a **shared understanding** of a specific IT term, standard, method, or concept.
A primer:
* Defines **what the topic is**
* Explains **where it fits**
* Clarifies **scope boundaries**
* Points to **authoritative sources**
A primer does **not**:
* Teach step-by-step usage
* Advocate tools or vendors
* Explore implementation details beyond what is normatively defined
---
## 2. Target Audience
Primers are written for:
* Humans with solid general IT knowledge
* Readers who are *not specialists* in the specific topic
* AI systems that consume structured context for reasoning and coding
Authors must assume:
* Conceptual literacy
* Familiarity with basic IT terminology
* No prior deep knowledge of the topic
---
## 3. Required Structure (Mandatory)
Every primer **MUST** contain the following sections **in this order**:
1. **Definition**
2. **Context**
3. **Core Concepts**
4. **Scope and Non-Scope**
5. **Practical Implications**
6. **Formal Standards and Authoritative Sources**
7. **Related Concepts**
No section may be omitted. Empty sections are not allowed.
---
## 4. Section Authoring Rules
### 4.1 Definition
**Purpose:** Establish an unambiguous baseline meaning.
Rules:
* 24 sentences maximum
* Declarative, precise language
* No metaphors, examples, or analogies
* No historical narrative
### 4.2 Context
**Purpose:** Position the concept within the IT landscape.
Rules:
* Describe the domain(s) the concept belongs to
* Explain *why it exists*, not *how to use it*
* Historical notes allowed only if they clarify intent or constraints
### 4.3 Core Concepts
**Purpose:** Identify the irreducible ideas that define the topic.
Rules:
* Bullet points only
* Each bullet describes one concept
* No nested lists
* Avoid redundancy with Definition
### 4.4 Scope and Non-Scope
**Purpose:** Prevent conceptual drift and misuse.
Rules:
* Explicitly list inclusions and exclusions
* Use parallel structure
* Address common misconceptions
Format:
```markdown
**In Scope**
- ...
**Out of Scope**
- ...
```
This section is **critical** for AI agent correctness.
### 4.5 Practical Implications
**Purpose:** Describe consequences of adopting or interacting with the concept.
Rules:
* Focus on effects, not instructions
* No step-by-step guidance
* Include tradeoffs where relevant
### 4.6 Formal Standards and Authoritative Sources
**Purpose:** Anchor the primer in canonical truth.
Rules:
* Prefer primary sources
* Include direct links
* Avoid blogs unless widely recognized and necessary
Acceptable sources:
* RFCs, W3C Recommendations
* ISO / IEC standards
* NIST publications
* Official specifications
* Foundational academic papers
At least **one** authoritative source is required.
### 4.7 Related Concepts
**Purpose:** Enable semantic navigation.
Rules:
* Short descriptions only (one line per concept)
* No deep explanations
* Avoid circular definitions
---
## 5. Language and Style Rules
Mandatory:
* Present tense
* Declarative sentences
* Neutral, technical tone
Avoid:
* First-person language ("we", "you")
* Rhetorical questions
* Marketing language
* Informal phrasing
* Emojis
---
## 6. Length Constraints
A primer should typically be:
* **6001,000 words total**
* Short enough to be read in one sitting
* Long enough to define boundaries clearly
Exceeding this range requires justification.
---
## 7. AI Optimization Rules (Explicit)
Authors **SHOULD**:
* Use consistent terminology
* Avoid synonyms for core terms once defined
* Prefer explicit over implicit assumptions
* State constraints clearly
Authors **MUST NOT**:
* Rely on context outside the document
* Assume tool- or framework-specific defaults
* Leave ambiguity where standards are explicit
---
## 8. Validation Criteria (Checklist)
A primer is valid if:
* [ ] All required sections are present
* [ ] Definition is precise and unambiguous
* [ ] Scope boundaries are explicit
* [ ] At least one authoritative source is linked
* [ ] No tutorial or marketing content exists
* [ ] Language follows declarative style rules

# InfoTech Research Protocol
Below is a systematic research protocol to thoroughly investigate any InfoTech topic before writing an InfoTechPrimer.
**Purpose:** Produce a factually grounded, scope-aware, source-anchored research brief suitable as direct input for primer authoring.
---
## Research Sections
### 1. Canonical Definition
- Provide the most widely accepted definition(s) of the topic
- If multiple definitions exist, explain why and in which contexts they differ
- Prefer definitions from standards bodies, original designers, or official specifications
### 2. Domain Context and Classification
- Which technical domain(s) does this topic belong to?
(e.g. systems programming, distributed systems, security, AI, quantum computing)
- What *type* of thing is it?
(e.g. protocol, framework, architectural style, API standard, SDK, language, library)
- At which abstraction level does it primarily operate?
### 3. Historical Origin and Motivation
- Who introduced it and when?
- What concrete problem(s) was it created to solve?
- What existing approaches did it replace, extend, or formalize?
(Only include history that explains intent or constraints.)
### 4. Core Concepts and Invariants
- List the essential concepts without which the topic would not make sense
- For each concept, explain its role in one or two sentences
- Identify any invariants, guarantees, or formal assumptions
### 5. Scope Boundaries
- Clearly state what the topic explicitly covers
- Clearly state what it explicitly does NOT cover
- Identify common misconceptions or misuses
This section should prevent overextension by AI systems.
### 6. Practical Implications (Non-Tutorial)
- What design or architectural consequences follow from using this?
- What tradeoffs are inherent?
- What kinds of systems typically depend on it?
Do NOT include step-by-step usage.
### 7. Relationship to Adjacent Concepts
- List closely related standards, technologies, or terms
- For each, explain the relationship (complementary, layered on top, alternative, predecessor)
### 8. Authoritative Sources
- List primary, authoritative references:
- Standards (RFCs, ISO, W3C, IEEE, etc.)
- Official specifications or documentation
- Foundational papers
- Include direct links
- Clearly distinguish primary sources from secondary explanations
### 9. Stability and Maturity Assessment
- Is this topic considered stable, evolving, or experimental?
- Are there competing standards or dominant implementations?
- Is backward compatibility a concern?
### 10. Notes for Primer Authoring
- Highlight points that MUST be stated clearly in a primer
- Highlight areas where ambiguity must be avoided
- Identify terminology that must be used consistently
---
## Research Constraints
- Use precise, declarative language
- No metaphors or analogies
- No marketing or opinionated statements
- Assume a technically literate audience
- Prefer explicit statements over implied assumptions
---
## Why This Protocol Works
This protocol is intentionally shaped to:
* **Force scope clarity** (critical for AI agents)
* **Surface invariants and constraints**
* **Separate definition from implementation**
* **Anchor everything in primary sources**
* **Produce output that maps 1:1 to Primer Authoring Rules**
Think of it as: *A pre-primer that de-risks the primer.*
