Structured Outputs Advisor

Overview

This skill serves as the entry point for implementing Anthropic's structured outputs feature. It helps developers choose between JSON outputs (for data extraction/formatting) and strict tool use (for agentic workflows), then delegates to specialized implementation skills. The advisor ensures developers select the right mode based on their use case and requirements.

Two Modes Available:

  1. JSON Outputs (output_format) - Guaranteed JSON schema compliance for responses
  2. Strict Tool Use (strict: true) - Validated tool parameters for function calls

Specialized Implementation Skills:

  • json-outputs-implementer - For data extraction, classification, API formatting
  • strict-tool-implementer - For agentic workflows, validated function calls

When to Use This Skill

Trigger Phrases:

  • "implement structured outputs"
  • "need guaranteed JSON schema"
