Jinja2 Prompt Templates

Purpose

Define reusable, parameterized prompt templates for agent tasks. Templates enable consistent prompt formatting across workflows while allowing dynamic content injection.

Template Syntax

Use Jinja2-style variable interpolation in prompt strings:

{{ variable }}                        — Variable substitution
{% if condition %}...{% endif %}      — Conditional sections
{% for item in list %}...{% endfor %} — Iteration
{{ variable | default("fallback") }}  — Default values

Security Rules

• Templates MUST be author-written (stored in skill files), never user-supplied
• Use SandboxedEnvironment (NOT Environment or from_string() directly)
• No access to env(), os, subprocess, or any system functions
• Variable allowlist: only explicitly provided context variables are accessible
• NEVER render user-controlled strings as templates — treat them as plain data

Template Locations

.claude/skills/<skill-name>/templates/
  ├── analysis.md.j2
  ├── report.md.j2
  └── triage.md.j2

Usage Pattern

# In skill or workflow definition
template: analysis.md.j2
variables:
  target: "{{ repository_url }}"
  scope: "security"
  depth: "comprehensive"

Rendered by orchestrator before passing to agent as prompt.

Common Templates

Research Team Prompt

Role: {{ domain }} {{ role }} analyst
Scope: {{ topic }}

Tasks:
{% for task in tasks %}
{{ loop.index }}. {{ task }}
{% endfor %}

Output format:
{{ output_format }}

CVE Triage Prompt

Analyze {{ cve_id }} ({{ cwe_classification }})
Affected component: {{ component }} {{ version_range }}
{% if existing_mitigations %}
Known mitigations: {{ existing_mitigations }}
{% endif %}

Integration

• Used by /research skill for team prompt generation
• Used by cve-triage skill for standardized analysis prompts
• Compatible with DAG orchestration node prompts
