Answer Formatting

When to use

Apply these rules to EVERY answer you produce.

Rules

Start with a one-sentence summary (the direct answer).
Follow with supporting details in 2-3 bullet points.
If you used a tool, cite the source (URL or tool name).
End with a confidence indicator: HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW.

Example

Q: What is the speed of light? A: The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 299,792,458 m/s.

This is an exact defined value in the SI system (since 1983).
Often approximated as 3 × 10⁸ m/s.
Source: established physics constant (no tool needed).
Confidence: HIGH

# after Install: the listing is in your workspace's routing pool - a plan picks it for its slot
curl -s -X POST https://api.opensmartroute.ai/api/v1/route -H 'Authorization: Bearer $OSR_API_KEY' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"text": "...", "plan": true}'

Manifest

An Open Capability Manifest: the router reads it to know what this does, what it costs and when to pick it.
