 - Include all variables from design

+Remember that the output format design we aligned on chose one of the following - and what it means practically when creating the workflow steps:
+1. **Strict Template** - Must follow exact format with specific fields
+   1. This is similar to the example where there are multiple template fragements that are specific with all fields to be in the final output.
+   2. generally there will be 1 fragment to a step to complete in the overall template.
+2. **Structured** - Required sections but flexible within each

+3. **Semi-structured** - Core sections plus optional additions
+   1. Similar to the prior 2, but not all sections or content are listed in the template, some steps might offer various paths or options to go to different steps (or variance within a step) that can determine what sections end up in the final document
+4. **Free-form** - Content-driven with minimal structure
+   1. These are the easiest and most flexible. The single template usually only has the front matter fence with a stepsCompleted array and maybe some other fields, and outside of the front matter just the level 1 doc title
