YAML Jazz

"YAML is sheet music. The LLM is the jazz musician. Comments are soul."

What Is It?

YAML Jazz is also a schema plugin in the MOOLLM schemapedia: mechanism id yaml-jazz, family notation, profile skills/schema/schemas/mechanisms/yaml-jazz/MECHANISM.yml. It does not compete with JSON Schema—it layers authored meaning (comments, lenses) on the same YAML trees interchange validators care about.

YAML Jazz is how MOOLLM treats structured data: not as rigid schemas, but as semantic improvisation where:

"The source is the destination." — The Markdown/YAML principle

• Structure carries meaning — indentation, ordering, grouping
• Comments ARE data — they're guidance, context, soul
• The LLM interprets — filling gaps, resolving ambiguity, inferring intent
• Schemas are suggestions — starting points, not prisons
