ParkPal Content Orchestrator

Overview

Coordinates the full content pipeline for Disney park attractions. Breaks work into park → land → attraction units and dispatches subagents for each phase: research, write, review, format.

When to Use

• User says "let's do [park name]" or "start [park]"
• User says "continue" or "resume" or "what's left"
• User says "do all of [land]" or "next land"
• Beginning of any content generation session

Workflow

1. INVENTORY — Build the attraction roster for the target park
2. TRACK    — Check data/json/{park_slug}.json for already-completed attractions
3. PLAN     — Create a plan in docs/plans/ listing remaining attractions by land
4. DISPATCH — For each attraction, run the pipeline:
               research → write → review (loop if rejected) → collect
5. FORMAT   — Once a land is complete, call formatter to output JSON + DOCX
6. REPORT   — Show progress summary after each land

Step 1: Build Attraction Roster

For the target park, enumerate every current attraction (as of 2026) organized by land. Include:

• Rides (dark rides, coasters, flat rides, water rides)
• Shows (theater, 4D, walk-through)
• Interactive experiences (shooting galleries, scavenger hunts)
• Transport attractions (railroad, boats, PeopleMover)

Exclude:

• Meet & greets (character dining, photo ops)
• Shops and restaurants
• Seasonal overlays (treat as notes on the base attraction)
• Closed/demolished attractions (unless recently replaced — then note in precededBy)

Step 2: Check Progress

# Check what's already been written
cat data/json/{park_slug}.json 2>/dev/null | jq '.[].name' 2>/dev/null

Compare against the full roster. Report: "X of Y attractions complete. Remaining: [list]"

Step 3: Create Plan

Save to docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-{park-slug}.md:

# {Park Name} Content Plan

**Status:** {X}/{Y} complete
**Remaining by land:**

## {Land Name}
- [ ] Attraction 1
- [ ] Attraction 2

## {Land Name}
- [ ] Attraction 3

Step 4: Dispatch Pipeline

For each attraction, in land order:

1. Research — Dispatch researcher subagent with attraction name + park + land
2. Write — Pass research to writer subagent to produce trivia
3. Review — Pass complete object to reviewer subagent
   • If REJECTED: log rejection reason, re-dispatch writer with feedback
   • If APPROVED: append to the park's working data
4. Checkpoint — After every 3 attractions, save intermediate JSON

Step 5: Format on Land Completion

When all attractions in a land are done:

• Call formatter to append to the park JSON file
• Call formatter to append to the park DOCX file
• Update the plan with checkmarks

Step 6: Progress Report

After each land:

✅ {Land Name} complete ({N} attractions)
   Remaining: {M} attractions across {L} lands
   Next up: {Next Land Name}

Resuming Interrupted Work

If the user returns mid-park:

1. Read data/json/{park_slug}.json to find completed attractions
2. Read docs/plans/ for the latest plan
3. Report status and ask: "Continue from {next attraction}?"

Common Mistakes

• Starting a new park before finishing the current one — always complete all lands first
• Skipping the progress check on resume — always read existing JSON before dispatching
• Not checkpointing — save intermediate JSON every 3 attractions to avoid data loss
• Mixing up current vs. historical attraction names — always use 2026 branding
