Why a tight schema matters

Short field names save output tokens. "id" vs "identifier" is 1 vs 4 tokens per field per call. At 100k calls/mo with 8 fields, that's ~2.4M tokens of pure waste.

Enums force compliance. "sentiment" as a free string can be "very positive", "mostly positive", "kinda happy" — all variations of the same idea. Enum forces one of {positive|neutral|negative} — cheaper, parseable, no fuzzy matching needed downstream.

additionalProperties: false prevents bloat. Without it the model can invent extra fields that nobody asked for. With it, you get exactly the shape you defined — no surprises in production.

Descriptions are free hints. JSON Schema description fields are sent as inline guidance to the model. Doesn't cost extra output tokens — improves compliance.
