## Customization Points

1. **Domain Context**: Replace `{domain}`, `{primary_purpose}`, `{key_capabilities}`
2. **Workflow Stages**: Customize stages based on domain workflows
3. **Routing Logic**: Add domain-specific subagent routing patterns
4. **Quality Standards**: Define domain-specific quality criteria
5. **Context Files**: Reference actual context files from the domain

## Validation Criteria

Generated orchestrators must:
- Follow optimal component ordering (context→role→task→instructions)
- Include 5+ workflow stages with checkpoints
- Implement routing_intelligence section
- Define context_engineering functions
- Include validation gates (pre_flight and post_flight)
- Score 8+/10 on XML optimization criteria
