What problem does it solve?
This Skill solves the reliability problem of getting LLM outputs that strictly match a required structure, so you can use model results directly without brittle post-processing.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured generation (JSON/XML/regex/code): Constrain generation so outputs follow a target format rather than “best effort” text.
- Type-safe results with Pydantic: Define schemas as Pydantic models and receive validated, correctly typed objects.
- Multi-backend local inference: Run with Transformers, llama.cpp, or vLLM to control latency and throughput while keeping structure guarantees.
- Use Case: Extract product details from messy descriptions into a typed schema (e.g., name, price, availability) while guaranteeing valid JSON and correct types.
Quick Start
Use the outlines skill to extract a Product object from the prompt: “Extract iPhone 15 Pro details (name, price, in_stock) from: iPhone 15 Pro costs $999 and is currently in stock.”
