SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents behavior regressions when migrating from prompt-based JSON extraction to API-side schema validation while legacy post-processing filters still exist, avoiding the situation where a previously “silently cleaned” legacy edge case suddenly becomes a hard failure.

Core Features & Use Cases

Defines a two-layer test contract to protect both the new schema and the legacy wrapper behavior.
Specifies a wrapper-path gate that is the only place you can observe the contract boundary between “new strict validator” and “old silent filters.”
Prevents common anti-patterns such as relying on schema-unit tests alone or accidentally validating before legacy filters run.

Use cases include integrating any provider’s structured-output / JSON-schema / typed-parse endpoint into an existing response pipeline that already has response-cleaning logic.

Quick Start

Add this skill when your plan switches to API structured outputs and ensure your test plan includes both a schema unit test and a full wrapper-path test that injects the legacy “silent strip” scenario.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent structured-output validation regressions when migrating to schema-bound API parsing?▼

When adopting API structured outputs alongside existing post-parse filters, a structured-output contract regression occurs because previously 'silently cleaned' legacy edge cases suddenly become hard validation failures at the contract boundary.

How do I test JSON schema integration without breaking existing post-parse filters?▼

Test JSON schema integration by defining a two-layer test contract that protects the new schema and the legacy wrapper behavior, using a wrapper-path gate to observe the contract boundary between the strict validator and old silent filters.

Why do my legacy response-cleaning filters fail after switching to structured outputs?▼

Legacy response-cleaning filters fail after switching to structured outputs if you accidentally validate data before the legacy filters run, causing previously tolerated edge cases to trigger hard schema rejections at the contract boundary.

Do I need wrapper-path tests if I already have schema-unit tests for JSON schema validation?▼

Yes, schema-unit tests alone are insufficient for structured-output migrations because they cannot observe the contract boundary between new strict validators and old silent filters, making wrapper-path tests mandatory to prevent legacy strip regressions.

What is the best way to integrate typed-parse endpoints into a response pipeline with legacy post-processing?▼

The best way to integrate typed-parse endpoints with legacy post-processing is establishing a wrapper-path gate that validates legacy strip cases while ensuring silent-strip success occurs before any strict schema validation is applied.
