The template should provide enough information to run either PTStitcher
or PTGui internal stitcher. You load the images, apply the template and
create panorama.

I don't fully understand. Am I right you want to assemble those
cubefaces to equirectangular panorama?

On http://wiki.panotools.org/PTStitcher
A basic script would be:
--snip
p w8000 h4000 f2 v360 u20 n"JPEG g0 q90"
m g1 i4 f0
o f0 y0 r0 p0 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
o f0 y90 r0 p0 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
o f0 y-180 r0 p0 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
o f0 y-90 r0 p0 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
o f0 y0 r0 p90 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
o f0 y0 r0 p-90 v90 a0 b0 c0 d0 e0 g0 t0
--snap
This one will create an equirect with 8000 pixels width and 4000 pixels
hight as a jpeg file with 90% quality. Adjust to your needs. It accepts
cubeface files in the order front, right, back, left, top, bottom.
Save the above lines between --snip and --snap to a file assemble.txt
The command line to call PTStitcher then would be
PTStitcher -o Pano1 assemble.txt cube1_001.jpg cube2_001.jpg cube....
(with all 6 faces of course)
You can put those line multiple times in a batch file, you can even call
PTStitcher in a for loop on the command line. Since in your case you
need 3-digit numbers you need to do it for the 1 and 2 digit counts
separately
1..9:
--snip
for /L %i in (1,1,9) do PTStitcher -o Pano%i assemble.txt cube1_00%i.jpg
cube2_00%i.jpg cube3_00%i.jpg cube4_00%i.jpg cube5_00%i.jpg
cube6_00%i.jpg
--snap
10..20:
--snip
for /L %i in (10,1,20) do PTStitcher -o Pano%i assemble.txt
cube1_0%i.jpg cube2_0%i.jpg cube3_0%i.jpg cube4_0%i.jpg cube5_0%i.jpg
cube6_0%i.jpg
--snap
Copy and paste the lines between --snip and --snap to notepad, remove
the line wraps and paste the line to a command window in the respective
folder.
(There are ways to pad variables to 3 digits even in windows shell
language, but this would require some lines in a batch file)...
