ChatbotsOutput contract

Write a strict structured-output contract for an agent

Use when downstream code parses the bot's replies and the output must always match a schema exactly.

The prompt
prompt.txt
Write the output-contract section of a system prompt for an assistant whose replies are parsed by code.

Required output schema:
{{schema}}

Constraints to encode:
- ALWAYS return valid output matching the schema exactly; no prose before or after, no markdown fences unless the schema requires.
- Never add extra keys, comments, or trailing text.
- Use the exact field names, types, and enums; for unknown values use the defined null/empty convention, never invent.
- Escape and quote strings correctly.
- If the request cannot be fulfilled, still return the schema with an error field populated, not free text.
- Be deterministic in formatting.

Output the contract text plus one valid example output and one example of the error case.
