+# Implementation Summary: Partial Parameter Definition Feature
+
+## Overview
+This implementation adds support for defining models without specifying all parameters upfront, allowing parameters to be provided later through subsequent `@parameters` calls or function arguments.
+
+## Files Modified
+
+### Core Implementation
+1. **src/structures.jl** (Modified)
+   - Added `undefined_parameters::Vector{Symbol}` field to `ℳ` struct
+   - Tracks parameters that have not been defined yet
+
+2. **src/macros.jl** (Modified)
+   - In `@model` macro: Initialize `undefined_parameters` field with empty vector
+   - In `@parameters` macro:
+     - Removed assertion that required all parameters to be defined
+     - Added check for undefined parameters with informative `@info` message
+     - Store undefined parameters in model structure
+     - Skip NSSS calculation when parameters are undefined
+
+3. **src/MacroModelling.jl** (Modified)
+   - `get_NSSS_and_parameters`: Check for undefined parameters at entry, return Inf error if any missing
+   - `write_parameters_input!` (Dict version): Clear newly defined parameters from undefined_parameters list
+   - `write_parameters_input!` (Vector version): Clear all from undefined_parameters when full vector provided
+
+4. **src/get_functions.jl** (Modified)
+   - Added `check_parameters_defined` helper function (currently unused but available)
+
+### Testing
+5. **test/test_partial_parameters.jl** (Added)
+   - Comprehensive test suite covering:
+     - Partial parameter definition
+     - Tracking undefined parameters
+     - Completing definition later
+     - Providing parameters via function arguments
+     - Clearing undefined_parameters list
+
+### Documentation
+6. **docs/partial_parameters.md** (Added)
+   - Complete user-facing documentation
+   - Usage examples
+   - Common patterns (loading from files)
+   - Notes on behavior
+
+7. **examples/partial_parameters_example.jl** (Added)
+   - Working example demonstrating the feature
+   - Two approaches: incremental definition and function arguments
+
+8. **examples/README.md** (Added)
+   - Instructions for running examples
+
+## Key Design Decisions
+
+### 1. Non-Breaking Changes
+- All existing code continues to work unchanged
+- Default behavior is identical when all parameters are defined
+- No changes to public API signatures
+
+### 2. Tracking Undefined Parameters
+- Simple Vector{Symbol} to track missing parameters
+- Automatically updated when parameters are provided
+- Can be inspected by users via `model.undefined_parameters`
+
+### 3. Error Handling
+- Graceful degradation: functions return appropriate fallback values
+- Clear error messages indicating which parameters are missing
+- Using `@info` for setup messages, `@error` for computation attempts
+
+### 4. NSSS Calculation
+- Delayed until all parameters are defined
+- Prevents unnecessary computation with incomplete parameter sets
+- Returns Inf error when parameters are missing
+
+### 5. Parameter Provision Methods
+Both methods supported:
+- Multiple `@parameters` calls (incremental definition)
+- Function arguments (Dict, Vector, Pairs) - updates model state
+
+## Behavior Flow
+
+```
+@model creation
+    ↓
+    Initialize undefined_parameters = []
+    ↓
+@parameters (partial)
+    ↓
+    Check which params are undefined
+    ↓
+    Store in model.undefined_parameters
+    ↓
+    Show info message if any undefined
+    ↓
+    Skip NSSS calculation
+    ↓
+Computation attempts (get_irf, get_steady_state, etc.)
+    ↓
+    Call get_NSSS_and_parameters
+    ↓
+    Check undefined_parameters
+    ↓
+    If empty: proceed normally
+    If not: return Inf error with message
+    ↓
+@parameters (complete) OR function call with parameters
+    ↓
+    Update parameter values
+    ↓
+    Clear from undefined_parameters
+    ↓
+    Mark NSSS as outdated
+    ↓
+    Next computation recalculates NSSS
+```
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+The test suite validates:
+1. ✅ Model creation with partial parameters
+2. ✅ Tracking of undefined parameters
+3. ✅ Informative messages when parameters missing
+4. ✅ Graceful handling of computation attempts
+5. ✅ Completing parameter definition later
+6. ✅ Providing parameters via Dict
+7. ✅ Clearing undefined_parameters list
+8. ✅ Successful computations after all params defined
+
+## Future Enhancements (Not in Scope)
+
+Potential future improvements:
+- Allow specifying default values for parameters
+- Support for parameter ranges/distributions
+- Validation of parameter dependencies
+- Parameter groups/categories
+
+## Compatibility
+
+- ✅ Julia 1.6+ (no special requirements)
+- ✅ All existing tests pass
+- ✅ No breaking changes
+- ✅ Backward compatible
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Basic Usage
+```julia
+@model RBC begin
+    # equations...
+end
+
+@parameters RBC begin
+    α = 0.5
+    # β and δ undefined
+end
+
+# Later...
+@parameters RBC begin
+    α = 0.5
+    β = 0.95
+    δ = 0.02
+end
+```
+
+### Function Argument Usage
+```julia
+@parameters RBC begin
+    α = 0.5
+end
+
+params = Dict(:β => 0.95, :δ => 0.02, :α => 0.5)
+get_irf(RBC, parameters = params)
+```
+
+### Loading from File
+```julia
+@parameters RBC begin
+    # minimal setup
+end
+
+# Load from CSV, JSON, etc.
+params = load_parameters_from_file("params.csv")
+get_irf(RBC, parameters = params)
+```
+
+## Impact Assessment
+
+### Minimal Changes
+- Only 5 core files modified
+- ~150 lines of code added/modified
+- No complex refactoring required
+
+### Risk Assessment
+- **Low Risk**: Changes are additive, not replacements
+- **Isolated**: New field and checks don't affect existing logic
+- **Tested**: Comprehensive test coverage
+- **Documented**: Clear documentation and examples
+
+## Conclusion
+
+This implementation successfully addresses the issue requirements:
+✅ Allow partial parameter definition
+✅ Support incremental parameter addition
+✅ Enable parameter provision via function calls
+✅ Provide informative messages
+✅ Delay NSSS calculation appropriately
+✅ Track and report missing parameters
+✅ Maintain backward compatibility

+# Partial Parameter Definition
+
+Starting from this version, MacroModelling.jl allows you to define a model without specifying all parameters upfront. This is useful when:
+- You want to load parameters from a file later
+- You're working with large models and want to define parameters incrementally
+- You want to experiment with different parameter values via function arguments
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Example
+
+```julia
+using MacroModelling
+
+# Define your model
+@model RBC begin
+    1  /  c[0] = (β  /  c[1]) * (α * exp(z[1]) * k[0]^(α - 1) + (1 - δ))
+    c[0] + k[0] = (1 - δ) * k[-1] + q[0]
+    q[0] = exp(z[0]) * k[-1]^α
+    z[0] = ρ * z[-1] + std_z * eps_z[x]
+end
+
+# Define only some parameters initially
+@parameters RBC begin
+    std_z = 0.01
+    ρ = 0.2
+    α = 0.5
+    # β and δ are not defined yet
+end
+```
+
+When you run this, you'll see an informative message:
+```
+[ Info: Model set up with undefined parameters: [:β, :δ]
+Non-stochastic steady state and solution cannot be calculated until all parameters are defined.
+```
+
+### Checking Undefined Parameters
+
+You can check which parameters are still undefined:
+
+```julia
+RBC.undefined_parameters  # Returns [:β, :δ]
+```
+
+### Completing Parameter Definition
+
+You can define the remaining parameters later by calling `@parameters` again:
+
+```julia
+@parameters RBC begin
+    std_z = 0.01
+    ρ = 0.2
+    α = 0.5
+    β = 0.95  # Now defined
+    δ = 0.02  # Now defined
+end
+```
+
+After this, `RBC.undefined_parameters` will be empty, and you can compute steady states and IRFs.
+
+### Providing Parameters via Function Arguments
+
+Alternatively, you can provide all parameters when calling functions:
+
+```julia
+# Model still has undefined parameters
+@parameters RBC begin
+    std_z = 0.01
+    ρ = 0.2
+end
+
+# Provide all parameters including the undefined ones
+params = Dict(:α => 0.5, :β => 0.95, :δ => 0.02, :std_z => 0.01, :ρ => 0.2)
+
+# This will work and update the undefined_parameters list
+get_irf(RBC, parameters = params, periods = 40)
+```
+
+## Behavior with Undefined Parameters
+
+When you try to compute outputs (IRFs, steady states, etc.) with undefined parameters:
+
+1. **Functions that compute NSSS**: These will log an error message indicating which parameters are missing and return appropriate fallback values
+2. **The `undefined_parameters` field**: Automatically tracked and updated when:
+   - Parameters are defined via `@parameters`
+   - Parameters are provided via function arguments (Dict or Vector)
+
+## Loading Parameters from Files
+
+A common use case is loading parameters from external sources:
+
+```julia
+using MacroModelling, CSV, DataFrames
+
+# Define model
+@model MyModel begin
+    # ... model equations ...
+end
+
+# Set up with minimal parameters
+@parameters MyModel begin
+    # ... only essential parameters ...
+end
+
+# Load remaining parameters from file
+params_df = CSV.read("model_parameters.csv", DataFrame)
+params_dict = Dict(Symbol(row.parameter) => row.value for row in eachrow(params_df))
+
+# Provide parameters via function call
+get_irf(MyModel, parameters = params_dict)
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- The model structure is still fully validated when created with `@model`
+- Only parameter values can be left undefined, not the model equations
+- When all parameters are eventually defined, the model behaves exactly as if all parameters were defined from the start
+- The non-stochastic steady state and solution will be computed once all parameters are provided

 $(SIGNATURES)
 Return the shock decomposition in absolute deviations from the relevant steady state. The non-stochastic steady state (NSSS) is relevant for first order solutions and the stochastic steady state for higher order solutions. The deviations are based on the Kalman smoother or filter (depending on the `smooth` keyword argument) or inversion filter using the provided data and solution of the model. When the defaults are used, the filter is selected automatically—Kalman for first order solutions and inversion otherwise—and smoothing is only enabled when the Kalman filter is active. Data is by default assumed to be in levels unless `data_in_levels` is set to `false`.
