Tool schemas

Create strict, understandable schemas for model-requested actions.

Lesson overview

A schema is a contract between the model and your application. Use enums, required fields, bounded numbers, and precise descriptions.

A good schema reduces ambiguity, but it does not replace validation. The executor must validate every argument again.

Step 1

A schema is a contract between the model and your application. Use enums, required fields, bounded numbers, and precise descriptions.

A good schema reduces ambiguity, but it does not replace validation. The executor must validate every argument again.

Step 2

Apply Tool schemas to a realistic production scenario and trace the decision step by step.

Step 3

Add implementation notes or a runnable example for this concept.

Step 4

Write down the inputs, expected output, constraints, and one failure case for Tool schemas.

Step 5

Quiz coming soon.

Step 6

Design a production-ready solution for Tool schemas and explain one important trade-off.

Work through every step in order, then the lesson will be marked complete.
