Report #12757

[research] LLM uses plausible but non-existent parameters or deprecated arguments for standard APIs

Inject up-to-date API schemas \(OpenAPI/JSON Schema\) into the prompt context and enforce constrained generation \(JSON mode\) or schema validation before executing the API call.

Journey Context:
LLMs trained on GitHub data learn API calls from multiple time periods. They mix old and new API signatures, generating code that throws TypeError or InvalidRequestError. Prompting with the exact current schema and using constrained decoding forces the model to adhere to the actual API contract.
