# Prompt Input Internals
This document describes YAML prompt data package construction in
`internal/promptinput`.
## Purpose
`internal/promptinput` converts report metadata, an ordered module snapshot,
Recent Changes, and source warnings into the `data_package` file passed to
Scriptorium.
The persisted data package is YAML with schema version
`weatherreporter.data_package.v2`. It is separate from the JSON module snapshot
used for inspection and comparison.
## Inputs And Outputs
Inputs:
- report metadata from app/state orchestration
- `module.Snapshot`
- optional `[]changes.Change`
Outputs:
- `promptinput.Package` with schema version, RunID, report metadata, named
module stanzas grouped for prompt presentation, Recent Changes, and source
warnings
- YAML bytes from `promptinput.MarshalYAML`
- YAML file written atomically by `promptinput.Save`
The YAML shape includes:
```yaml
schema_version: weatherreporter.data_package.v2
run_id: <run_id>
report:
id: <report_id>
prompt_id: <prompt_id>
briefing:
metadata: {}
applicable_risk_products:
alert_digest: {}
spc_convective_outlooks: {}
derived_summaries:
derived_daily_summary: {}
derived_daypart_summaries: {}
precip_timing: {}
outdoor_windows: {}
narrative_products:
narrative_forecast: {}
area_forecast_discussion: {}
spc_convective_discussion: {}
weather_story: {}
raw_data:
current_conditions: {}
hourly_forecast: {}
recent_changes:
items: []
```
The `briefing` mapping keeps `metadata` directly under `briefing` and groups
weather module stanzas under prompt-facing categories. This grouping is a YAML
presentation concern only: module snapshots remain flat, and loaded
`promptinput.Package` values expose flat stanza names in `Briefing.Values`.
Within each category, stanza order follows the module snapshot output order.
Prompt-facing module intervals use local `period_begins` and `period_ends`
labels; canonical report metadata and source timestamps remain structured
timestamps where applicable.
Near-Term Report uses the same package schema and categories. Its default
package includes `precip_timing` under `derived_summaries`, alert and SPC
outlooks under `applicable_risk_products`, AFD/SPC discussion/weather story
under `narrative_products`, and current/hourly data under `raw_data`. It does
not include daily or daypart summary stanzas.
Current categories are:
- `applicable_risk_products`: location-applicable alerts, warnings, outlooks,
and similar risk products. Current stanzas include `alert_digest` and
`spc_convective_outlooks`.
- `derived_summaries`: deterministic summaries and calculated report facts.
- `narrative_products`: official narrative text products and forecast stories.
Current stanzas include `narrative_forecast`,
`area_forecast_discussion`, `spc_convective_discussion`, and
`weather_story`.
- `raw_data`: minimally transformed underlying weather data.
## Boundaries
- This package owns prompt package schema, YAML marshaling, YAML loading, and
validation.
- It does not fetch weather data, derive forecast summaries, execute modules,
find prior snapshots, compare changes, choose artifact paths, or invoke
Scriptorium.
## Config Fields Used
None directly. Config-derived values such as timezone, units, and prompt
location are already present in report metadata and module stanzas before this
package runs.
## External Adapters Used
None.
## State Or Manifest Behavior
`promptinput.Save` writes YAML atomically. Managed workspace paths are owned by
`internal/state`.
## Skip And Resume Behavior
None. Recent Changes is always present as an `items` list and may be empty.
Near-Term Report currently writes an empty `items` list.
## Failure Behavior
Validation fails before render preflight when required top-level fields are
missing or inconsistent, when the valid period is invalid, or when no module
stanzas are present. Save failures include filesystem operation and path
context.
## Tests
Inspect:
- `internal/promptinput/package_test.go`
- `internal/app/app_test.go`
## Invariants
- Scriptorium receives structured YAML through `--input data_package=<path>`.
- Module stanza order is deterministic within each prompt-facing category.
- Every non-metadata module stanza has exactly one prompt-input category.
- Recent Changes are provided by `internal/changes`; this package does not
infer changes from rendered report text.
