Supported output types
- Plain text
- Bullet list
- Table (rendered in-app or exported)
- CSV
- JSON
- Hyperlinks
Why specify a result format?
- Clarity – A strict schema keeps the agent from guessing your layout.
- Consistency – Identical tasks run at different times produce identical files.
How to describe the format
Be explicit about:- File type – “CSV” vs. “JSON” vs. “table on screen.”
- Column / field names – List them in the order you want.
- Any special rules – e.g., “Price without currency symbol,” or “One row per seller.”
