Template Identification Implementation

Overview

This document describes the template identification functionality added to the Legal Document Organizer. The system now automatically identifies template documents during metadata extraction and handles them appropriately.

What Was Implemented

1. Enhanced Document Metadata Type

Added template_analysis object to DocumentMetadata interface:

template_analysis?: {
  is_template: boolean;
  confidence: 'HIGH' | 'MEDIUM' | 'LOW';
  indicators: string[];
  template_type?: string;
  field_placeholders?: string[];
  typical_use_case?: string;
}

2. Template Identification in Metadata Extraction

  • Integrated template identification as STEP 1 of metadata extraction
  • Uses criteria from the Template Identification System Prompt
  • Identifies templates based on:
    • Primary indicators: [BLANK], [FORM], (Form), Template in filename
    • Secondary indicators: Generic names, placeholder fields
    • Exclusion criteria: EXECUTED, specific party names, filled dates

3. Automatic Status Setting

  • When is_template is true, status is automatically set to "template"
  • Ensures consistency between template analysis and document status

4. Enhanced Document Classification

  • Templates with [BLANK], [FORM], etc. are routed to 09_Templates folder
  • Subfolder selection based on template type (By_Category or By_Department)

5. Discord Bot Template Support

  • Added new intent: REQUEST_TEMPLATE
  • Recognizes phrases like:
    • "I need a template for..."
    • "Show me templates"
    • "Get me a blank [document type]"
  • Template search automatically filters for status: "template"

6. Updated Help Command

  • Discord bot help now includes template request examples
  • Clear guidance on how to request templates

How It Works

During Document Processing:

  1. File is uploaded or detected
  2. Metadata extraction begins with template identification
  3. If template indicators found → is_template: true
  4. Status automatically set to "template"
  5. Document classified to 09_Templates folder
  6. Template metadata saved including placeholders and use case

During Discord Interaction:

  1. User requests a template (e.g., "I need an employment agreement template")
  2. Bot recognizes REQUEST_TEMPLATE intent
  3. Searches for documents with status: "template" and matching type
  4. Returns templates with descriptions and confidence levels

Testing

Two test scripts were created:

  1. test-template-prompt.ts - Tests the template identification prompt with sample content
  2. test-template-identification.ts - Tests end-to-end with actual files

Run tests with:

npx ts-node test-template-prompt.ts
npx ts-node test-template-identification.ts

Examples

Template Detection Examples:

  • ✅ Employment Agreement [BLANK].docx → Template (HIGH confidence)
  • ✅ SAFE Agreement (Form).pdf → Template (HIGH confidence)
  • ❌ Board Consent EXECUTED.pdf → Not a template
  • ❌ Agreement - John Smith.pdf → Not a template (specific party name)

Discord Commands:

  • "Show me all templates"
  • "I need an employment agreement template"
  • "Find SAFE agreement template"
  • "Get me a blank NDA"

Future Enhancements

  1. Template Versioning: Track template versions and updates
  2. Template Categories: More granular categorization within templates
  3. Usage Tracking: Monitor which templates are most requested
  4. Template Filling: Help users fill out templates with required information
  5. Template Recommendations: Suggest templates based on user needs

Configuration

No additional configuration required. The system uses existing API keys:

  • OpenAI API key for classification and metadata extraction
  • Gemini API key (optional) for enhanced PDF processing

Template identification is automatic and requires no user intervention.
