Jinja2 Template Tool

Master dynamic prompt generation for AI and Large Language Models with our Jinja2 template visualizer. As prompt engineering becomes critical for ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini applications in 2025, Jinja2 templates enable sophisticated prompt composition, variable injection, and conditional logic. Whether you're building dynamic AI prompts, creating email templates with LLM-generated content, generating configuration files for multi-agent systems, or automating documentation with AI, our Jinja2 tool helps you test, debug, and perfect your templates in real-time.

Jinja2 + AI: The Perfect Match for Dynamic Prompt Engineering

Leading AI developers use Jinja2 templates to create sophisticated, reusable prompts that adapt to different contexts. Here's how Jinja2 revolutionizes AI prompt engineering in 2025:

{% set system_role = "expert " + domain + " assistant" %}
{% set response_format = "structured" if use_json else "natural" %}

You are an {{ system_role }} with deep knowledge in {{ expertise_areas | join(", ") }}.

{% if context_documents %}
Context Information:
{% for doc in context_documents %}
- {{ doc.title }}: {{ doc.summary | truncate(100) }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

User Query: {{ user_query }}

{% if constraints %}
Constraints:
{% for constraint in constraints %}
- {{ constraint }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

Provide a {{ response_format }} response that:
{% if use_json %}
- Returns valid JSON matching this schema: {{ json_schema }}
{% else %}
- Is conversational and helpful
- Includes examples where appropriate
{% endif %}

{% if include_reasoning %}
Begin with your reasoning process before providing the final answer.
{% endif %}

Dynamic RAG System Prompts with Jinja2

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems require dynamic prompts that incorporate retrieved documents. Jinja2 makes this seamless:

{# RAG System Prompt Template #}
Based on the following retrieved documents, answer the user's question.

Retrieved Documents:
{% for doc in retrieved_docs | selectattr("relevance_score", ">", 0.7) %}
Document {{ loop.index }} (Relevance: {{ "%.2f" | format(doc.relevance_score) }}):
Title: {{ doc.title }}
Content: {{ doc.content | truncate(500) }}
Source: {{ doc.source_url }}
---
{% endfor %}

User Question: {{ user_question }}

{% if previous_conversation %}
Previous Context:
{% for turn in previous_conversation[-3:] %}
{{ turn.role }}: {{ turn.content | truncate(200) }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}

Instructions:
- Synthesize information from the documents
- Cite sources using [Document N] format
- {{ "Acknowledge if information is missing" if strict_mode else "Provide general knowledge if documents lack info" }}
- Maximum response length: {{ max_tokens }} tokens

Multi-Agent AI System Templates

Coordinate complex multi-agent AI systems with Jinja2 templates that manage agent communication:

{# Multi-Agent Task Delegation Template #}
{
  "task_id": "{{ task_id }}",
  "timestamp": "{{ now() }}",
  "coordinator": "{{ coordinator_agent }}",
  "agents": [
    {% for agent in available_agents %}
    {
      "name": "{{ agent.name }}",
      "role": "{{ agent.specialization }}",
      "assigned_subtask": {% if agent.name in task_assignments %}"{{ task_assignments[agent.name] }}"{% else %}null{% endif %},
      "dependencies": {{ agent.dependencies | tojson }},
      "priority": {{ agent.priority }}
    }{% if not loop.last %},{% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
  ],
  "execution_plan": {
    {% for phase in execution_phases %}
    "phase_{{ loop.index }}": {
      "agents": {{ phase.agents | tojson }},
      "parallel": {{ phase.parallel | lower }},
      "timeout_seconds": {{ phase.timeout | default(300) }}
    }{% if not loop.last %},{% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
  }
}

What is Jinja2?

Jinja2 Templates for LLM Applications

{% macro example(input, output) %}
Input: {{ input }}
Output: {{ output }}
{% endmacro %}

Task: {{ task_description }}

Examples:
{% for ex in examples | selectattr("category", "equalto", task_category) | list[:num_shots] %}
{{ example(ex.input, ex.output) }}
{% endfor %}

Now process this input:
Input: {{ user_input }}
Output:

Let's solve this step-by-step:

{% for step in reasoning_steps %}
Step {{ loop.index }}: {{ step.description }}
{% if step.requires_calculation %}
Calculation: {{ step.formula }}
{% endif %}
{% if step.requires_lookup %}
Reference: {{ step.source }}
{% endif %}
Result: {{ step.expected_output }}

{% endfor %}
