What problem does it solve?
This Skill allows users to generate structured, validated output in various formats (JSON, regex, Pydantic) from free-form text input using language models.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Output Generation: Ensures output is in the format specified by a schema, using JSON or regex constraints.
- Type Safety: Utilizes Pydantic models for guaranteed output correctness and validation.
- Supports Local Models: Integrates with local models like Transformers, llama.cpp, and vLLM for offline or resource-constrained environments.
- Use Case: Imagine you need to extract structured information from a block of text and ensure it conforms to a specific schema. This Skill can help generate that structured data from unstructured text.
Quick Start
Use the outlines skill to generate structured data from the text: "Extract user: John Doe, 30 years old, [email protected]" with the schema: "User" and model: "microsoft/Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct".
