ForceVue

Context completeness

The advisory panel that appears before generation when context is thin, and how to act on its suggestions without leaving the Generate dialog.

Before ForceVue writes a document, it checks whether the initiative has the context that document type needs most. When context is thin, an advisory panel appears inside the Generate dialog. The panel is a guide, never a blocker.

What the panel shows

The advisory panel lists the specific context types that would most improve the draft for the document type you chose. Each entry is a short description of what is missing and why it helps.

Three states are possible:

  • No panel. Your initiative already has enough of the right context. Generation proceeds normally.
  • Advisory. Some useful context is missing. The panel shows what to add, but the Generate button stays active. You decide whether to add context first or go ahead now.
  • First-run tip. Your initiative is new and has very little context at all. The panel gives a short suggestion to get you started.

A worked example

Say you choose to generate a Competitive Battlecard but your initiative has only a couple of general notes. The panel would point out that a battlecard leans on specific context types you have not added yet, for example:

  • Competitors, the products you want to compare against.
  • Target Users, who the comparison is for.
  • User Feedback, the real reasons customers weigh one option over another.

The Generate button stays active the whole time. You can add a competitor or two from the panel, then generate a sharper battlecard, or generate now and fill the gaps in a later pass. The panel is telling you where the draft will be strongest, not stopping you.

Different document types ask for different context. A PRD wants target users and constraints. A launch plan wants goals and target users. The panel always lists what matters most for the type you picked.

Uploaded files count too

If you have uploaded documents to the initiative, the panel takes them into account. An initiative with several uploaded research files is treated as having real context to work with, even before you add typed items by hand. In that case the panel will note that generation will also use your uploaded documents, rather than showing the empty first-run tip. See Uploading documents.

Adding context from the panel

Each suggested context type in the advisory panel has an Add button. Clicking it takes you directly to the add-context form with the right label pre-selected. Add what you have, save it, and return to the Generate dialog to proceed.

You do not have to fill every suggestion. Add what genuinely helps, then generate. If context is still thin after you add items, the draft will say so rather than invent detail.

Going ahead without adding

The Generate button is always available. You can dismiss the advisory and generate immediately. ForceVue will use whatever context exists and produce an honest draft from it.

When context is thin, the draft says so rather than inventing detail to fill the gap. That is the point of the check: it tells you where a draft will be weak before you spend a generation, so you can decide whether to strengthen the input first.

Common questions

Does the panel ever block generation? No. It is advisory in every state. The Generate button stays active whether context is rich, thin, or nearly empty.

Do I have to add everything it lists? No. Add what you actually have and what genuinely helps. A battlecard with one real competitor beats one with three invented ones.

Why did the panel not appear? Your initiative already had enough of the right context for the type you chose, so ForceVue went straight to generation.

Is the fastest way to fill a gap to paste my notes? Often, yes. If you have a block of raw material, the quick-add flow sorts it into typed items you review, which can satisfy several of the panel's suggestions at once.
