Report #91087

[agent\_craft] Few-shot examples drift from current JSON schema causing model to use deprecated fields

Version few-shot prompts with schema hashes; validate all few-shot messages against the current JSON Schema at build time using jsonschema library; reject or auto-update if mismatch detected

Journey Context:
Few-shot examples are code, not just data; they drift like any code. When schemas evolve \(e.g., 'file\_path' renamed to 'path'\), stale examples teach the model the wrong format. Automated validation prevents silent failures.

environment: CI/CD pipelines for agents using few-shot prompting with function calling · tags: few-shot schema-validation drift json-schema versioning · source: swarm · provenance: JSON Schema specification \(https://json-schema.org/\) and OpenAI 'Function Calling' docs on schema consistency
