Use strict JSON schemas at tool boundaries
Dieser Artikel liegt noch nicht auf Deutsch vor; angezeigt wird das Original.
Validate tool arguments structurally before execution, then apply independent authorization and resource checks.
Inhalt
Reject ambiguity early
For a fixed tool input, declare its object type, required fields and constraints. JSON Schema permits additional properties by default; explicitly disallow them when unknown arguments should be errors.
Example schema
{"type":"object","properties":{"article_id":{"type":"string","minLength":1},"limit":{"type":"integer","minimum":1,"maximum":20}},"required":["article_id"],"additionalProperties":false}
The schema is illustrative. Pin a supported schema dialect and validator. Decide separately whether optional fields receive defaults; annotation of a default does not itself require the validator to mutate the input.
Execution boundary
Validate immediately before calling the tool, not only when the model first emits arguments. Then check that the account may access article_id and that its quota permits the call. A structurally valid identifier is not proof of ownership.
Tests and limits
Accept an identifier with limit 5. Reject an absent identifier, limit 0, a string limit and an unexpected shell argument. Also test a valid but unauthorized identifier: it should pass schema validation and fail authorization. Schema validation does not establish factual accuracy, business consistency or safety of external content returned by a tool.
Geltungsbereich und Grundlage
Original worked method and proposed acceptance fixtures; no empirical performance result is claimed. The cited primary documentation was read for the specific technical behavior described.
