Event Template Node

The Event Template node emits a text or reasoning stream message from a template. Use it when a workflow needs to write a simple AG-UI-compatible stream event without adding a code node.

Template​

The node expands the Template field with the same syntax used by Model Call text fields and the code node Templates helper:

  • {{path}} or {{$path}} inserts a value from workflow context.
  • <<asset-name>> inserts the contents of a text-like asset.
  • String context values and text asset contents are expanded recursively.

Missing context paths or missing assets insert nothing. If the expanded template is empty or only whitespace, the node does nothing and continues to the next node.

Output Type​

Set Output Type to choose the stream lifecycle:

  • Text emits TextStart, TextContent, and TextEnd.
  • Reasoning emits ReasoningStart, ReasoningMessageStart, ReasoningMessageContent, ReasoningMessageEnd, and ReasoningEnd.

The node generates a new message id each time it runs.

Text Role​

When Output Type is Text, choose the Text Role:

  • Assistant
  • User
  • System
  • Developer
  • Tool

Reasoning output always uses the protocol reasoning role, so the text role selector is hidden when Reasoning is selected.

Silent​

Enable Silent when the event should be stored in SharpOMatic stream history but suppressed from live AG-UI SSE output for the current run. Silent is useful for recording messages that clients already know about, such as an echoed user message.

The silent flag is transient. It affects live stream delivery only and is not stored in the persisted stream event rows.
