+# Task: Diagnose missing interactive outline prompt template
+
+## Identity
+
+- Task ID: 20260819-openmaic-prompt-template-8b4d
+- Mode: Feature
+- Branch: codex/20260819-openmaic-prompt-template-8b4d-openmaic-prompt-template
+- Worktree: D:\w\omprompt-8b4d
+- Base commit: 58d1ddc2644f4c8631d62eb0e5423365af95ef66
+- Owner: codex
+- Status: Ready-for-integration
+
+## Scope
+
+- Trace the production error `Interactive outline prompt template not found` from the classroom job runner to its runtime file dependency.
+- Compare the runtime file path with the standalone Docker and learning-artifact packaging configuration.
+- Provide a read-only Kubernetes check, implement the durable standalone packaging fix requested after diagnosis, and add a regression test.
+
+## Intent And Constraints
+
+- The user requested direct analysis without subagents.
+- Preserve the existing dirty main worktree owned by `20260818-next-build-7f3a`; diagnosis ran in this isolated worktree at the same base commit.
+- Distinguish source-level facts from the still-unverified contents of the deployed image.
+- Keep the code change surgical: configure Next.js file tracing rather than duplicating copy rules across the Dockerfile and artifact builder.
+
+## Outcome
+
+- Confirmed that `lib/server/classroom-outline-mode.ts` raises the reported error only when the app prompt loader returns `null` for `interactive-outlines`.
+- Confirmed that the loader reads Markdown dynamically from `<cwd>/lib/prompts/templates/<promptId>` and that both interactive-outline source files exist. Its broad catch also converts snippet-loading failures into the same outer error, while logging the original cause under `PromptLoader`.
+- Confirmed that `interactive-outlines/system.md` includes three package-owned snippets (`image-instructions`, `video-instructions`, and `media-safety-guidelines`) that are dynamically read from `@openmaic/generation`.
+- Confirmed that standalone output is enabled but `next.config.ts` has no `outputFileTracingIncludes`, while both the Docker runner and `build-learning-artifact.mjs` copy only standalone output, static assets, and public assets.
+- Production root cause confirmed: the deployed Pod reports `ENOENT` for `/app/lib/prompts/templates/interactive-outlines/system.md`, and both `system.md` and `user.md` are absent while `cwd` is correctly `/app`. The standalone image omitted the app-owned prompt Markdown.
+- A direct eval import of `@openmaic/generation` from `/app` also returned `ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND`. This is not the current first failure because template loading stops at the missing `system.md`; package snippet availability must be verified after the app templates are packaged, preferably through the built application or by inspecting the standalone trace/layout rather than assuming root-level package resolution.
+- Added global standalone file-tracing includes for app-owned prompts, app PBL prompts, and the three package-owned generation prompt directories.
+- Added `tests/config/standalone-prompt-assets.test.ts` to lock the runtime prompt asset contract.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Source template presence check: PASS (`system.md` and `user.md` exist).
+- Packaging contract check: RED by design; source assets exist while neither file tracing includes nor an explicit runner copy is configured.
+- Runtime path inspection: PASS (`WORKDIR /app` plus `process.cwd()/lib/prompts` resolves to `/app/lib/prompts`).
+- Production Pod filesystem check: FAIL as expected; both interactive-outline files are missing from `/app` and the `PromptLoader` log records the exact `ENOENT` path.
+- Targeted Vitest regression: PASS (1 test).
+- ESLint on both changed product/test files: PASS.
+- Prettier check on both changed product/test files: PASS.
+- Learning-engine production build: webpack compilation PASS; final Next.js build FAILS on the pre-existing unrelated missing `@xmldom/xmldom` type declaration in `packages/@openmaic/importer/src/parser/XmlParser.ts`, before standalone output is emitted.
+
+## Follow-ups
+
+- Rebuild the image in an environment with the importer dependency installed, verify the prompt assets in the emitted standalone artifact, deploy, and rerun generation.
+- Verify the package-owned snippets through a generation request; the root-level eval import is not a reliable proxy for bundled route resolution.
+- Audit the other dynamically read app prompt directory `lib/pbl/v2/prompts` as part of the same packaging fix.
+
+## Promotion Candidates
+
+- None recorded.
