flow-distill

To create reusable templates from completed development flows, use the flow-distill process to extract abstractable components and convert them into standardized Markdown files within the `.agent/templates/` directory. This preserves learned knowledge and identifies placeholders for future feature implementations.

The best way to preserve learned knowledge from a finished feature implementation is to distill the completed flow into a reusable template. This process captures valuable insights and gotchas from the original flow directly into the new Markdown template file.

To extract a template named 'user-auth-template' from a specific flow ID, invoke the flow-distill skill and provide the target flow identifier along with the desired template name. The skill analyzes the flow structure and generates a new Markdown template file.

Template abstraction handles placeholder creation by analyzing completed flow structures and identifying common elements. It replaces these abstractable components with standardized placeholders like `{{feature_name}}` to ensure the generated Markdown templates are reusable across similar workflows.

No external dependencies are required to generate Markdown templates from past development flows. The process operates independently using internal scripts and references to analyze flow structures and write standardized files directly to the `.agent/templates/` directory.
