Design guidance

SHOULD enforce a consistent output structure so downstream functions can consume results.

Classification

Patterns: Template variable injection
Technologies: Semantic Kernel
Quality attributes: Reliability (ISO/IEC 25010 | NIST AI RMF: valid and reliable)
Risks mitigated: Inconsistent output format for downstream processing
