2-Step Flow

1. Step 1 (Analysis): generateText() + Code Execution Tool + Extended Thinking → Accurate calculations
2. Step 2 (Generation): generateObject() + Zod schema → Type-safe structured output

Key Functions

// Standalone generation
import { generateBlogContent } from "@sgcarstrends/​ai";

const { object } = await generateBlogContent({
  data: tokenisedData,     // Pipe-delimited data
  month: "October 2024",
  dataType: "cars",        // "cars" or "coe"
});

// object.title, object.excerpt, object.content, object.tags, object.highlights

Schemas

// postSchema
z.object({
  title: z.string().max(100),              // SEO title, max 60 chars preferred
  excerpt: z.string().max(500),            // Meta description, under 300 chars
  content: z.string(),                     // Markdown (no H1)
  tags: z.array(z.string()).min(1).max(10), // 3-5 tags, first is dataType
  highlights: z.array(highlightSchema),    // 3-6 key statistics
});

// highlightSchema
z.object({
  value: z.string(),   // "52.60%", "$125,000"
  label: z.string(),   // "Electric Vehicles Lead"
  detail: z.string(),  // "2,081 units registered"
});

Tag Constants

export const CARS_TAGS = ["Cars", "Registrations", "Fuel Types", "Market Trends", ...] as const;
export const COE_TAGS = ["COE", "Quota Premium", "1st Bidding Round", "PQP", ...] as const;

Updating Prompts

Edit packages/​ai/​src/​config.ts:

• ANALYSIS_INSTRUCTIONS: For calculation logic
• GENERATION_INSTRUCTIONS: For output format

Debugging

Low Quality Output: Check Step 1 analysis logs, verify Code Execution Tool runs Python Schema Validation Errors: Check Zod constraints (max lengths, array bounds) API Errors: Verify GOOGLE_GENERATIVE_AI_API_KEY, check quota

Environment Variables

GOOGLE_GENERATIVE_AI_API_KEY=...    # Required
LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY=pk-lf-...       # Optional telemetry
LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY=sk-lf-...

Best Practices

1. Always use 2-step flow: Separate analysis from generation
2. Never skip Code Execution: Required for accurate calculations
3. Use tag constants: Maintain vocabulary consistency
4. Enable telemetry: Track costs and quality
