# Playbook Template Engine

> Auto-render an always-current internal playbook per client so context survives any handoff.

A template engine that auto-renders an internal, per-client operations playbook, a single working document the team keeps but does not share with the client. It takes the lifecycle state (what stage, how long, SLA status) and the measured value figures as input and regenerates a clean markdown playbook on every stage transition, report or email trigger, plus a weekly batch run. The result is one file the team can read in thirty seconds for full context: who, when, why and the next action, instead of relying on memory.

## Use cases
- Keeping one internal source-of-truth document per client
- Auto-updating a playbook whenever a client changes stage
- Regenerating the value and milestone sections as new data lands
- Handing an account to another team member without losing context
- Reading a client's full history and next action in thirty seconds
- Guaranteeing continuity through staff changes or coverage

## Benefits
- One file holds full client context, replacing scattered memory
- Always current because it regenerates on every trigger
- Smooth handoffs during staff changes or coverage
- Idempotent rendering avoids needless churn in version history

## What’s included
- A template engine that renders a per-client internal playbook
- Auto-population from lifecycle state and measured-value inputs
- Event-driven regeneration on stage, report and email triggers
- A weekly batch render across all active clients
- A handoff mode that surfaces the latest context and next actions
- An internal-only marker so the playbook never reaches the client

## Who it’s for
Teams who run many client accounts and need one always-current internal playbook per client for context and clean handoffs.

## How it runs
Context that lives in someone's head disappears when they do. This engine keeps one internal file per client always current, rendered from live state:
1. Reads the client's lifecycle state, how long in stage and SLA status, plus the measured value figures, all read-only
2. Interpolates them into a fixed playbook template, producing a clean markdown document
3. Regenerates on every trigger, a stage change, a published report or an email send, so the file is never stale
4. Runs a weekly batch across all active clients and skips a rewrite when nothing changed, avoiding version churn
5. Marks the file internal-only and offers a handoff view that surfaces the latest context and the next actions

## FAQ
### Does the client ever see this playbook?
No. It is an internal working document marked internal-only and kept out of any client-facing bundle. Client-facing reports are produced separately.

### Does it decide anything or change client state?
No. It is a render layer only: it reads lifecycle state and value figures and writes the document. It never changes a stage or calculates a value itself.

### How does it stay current?
It regenerates on every relevant event, a stage transition, a published report, an email send, plus a weekly batch run, so the file reflects the latest state without anyone updating it by hand.
