Stage
stage
Optional
Pipeline stage identifier (always 'input' for this actor)
Status
status
Optional
Decision scalar: pass, block, or warn
Score
score
Optional
Numeric score 0-100 combining errors and warnings
Summary
summary
Optional
One-line human-readable verdict
Recommendations
recommendations
Optional
Ordered list of actions to fix errors and address warnings
Signals
signals
Optional
Classifier evidence: errorCount, warningCount, criticalCount, driftDetected, metrics
Decision
decision
Optional
Routable decision tag: act_now (errors — target will reject), monitor (warnings or schema missing), ignore (fully valid). Branch on this in Slack rules, Zapier, or agent tool calls — no prose parsing required.
Decision Reason
decisionReason
Optional
One-sentence plain-language explanation for the decision tag
Confidence Level
confidenceLevel
Optional
high when the target actor declares an input schema; low when it doesn't (validation is best-effort)
Decision Readiness
decisionReadiness
Optional
actionable (automation can act on this), monitor (watch it), or insufficient-data (target has no schema)
Verdict Reason Codes
verdictReasonCodes
Optional
Stable machine-readable tags explaining the verdict (REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING, TYPE_MISMATCH, ENUM_MISMATCH, VALUE_OUT_OF_RANGE, UNKNOWN_FIELD, USING_DEFAULT_VALUE, SCHEMA_MISSING, SCHEMA_DRIFT_DETECTED). Additive within a major version.
Drift Detected
driftDetected
Optional
True when the target actor's input schema hash has changed since the last validated run of this actor against it
Previous Schema Hash
previousSchemaHash
Optional
Schema hash from the last validated run (null on first-ever run). Pair with schemaHash to see drift.
Evidence
evidence
Optional
Plain-language findings that support the verdict (list of field-level errors)
Counter-Evidence
counterEvidence
Optional
Plain-language findings that weighed against the verdict (list of fields that validated cleanly)
Drift Summary
driftSummary
Optional
Structural diff of the target actor's input schema vs the last validated baseline: addedFields, removedFields, newRequiredFields, removedRequiredFields, typeChanges, enumChanges, defaultChanges, compatibilityImpact (none | non-breaking | breaking). Null when no drift.
Schema Quality Audit
schemaQualityAudit
Optional
Target-actor input schema audit: documentationScore (0–100), completenessScore (0–100), agentReadinessScore (0–100), findings[] naming weak or missing declarations. Null when schema is missing or audit is disabled.
Recommended Fixes
recommendedFixes
Optional
Deterministic remediation suggestions — each entry carries priority, field, findingPath (exact nested location), reasonCode, changeType, currentValue, suggestedValue, mostLikelyIntent (for typo-renames and enum near-matches), confidence (high/medium/low), and explanation. Only high-confidence fixes are pre-applied in patchedInputPreview.
Patched Input Preview
patchedInputPreview
Optional
Your test input with high-confidence autofixes applied (float→int coercion, boolean-string coercion, typo-rename). Null when no safe fixes apply. Does not mutate stored input.
Safe Autofix Count
safeAutoFixCount
Optional
Number of high-confidence fixes applied to patchedInputPreview
Unsafe Suggestion Count
unsafeSuggestionCount
Optional
Number of suggestions that require human review before applying (enum typos, missing required fields, etc.)
Intent Mismatch Risk
intentMismatchRisk
Optional
Rollup risk that the payload expresses intent the target actor will not honor. Object: { level: low | medium | high, whyItMatters: plain-language explanation }. Fires high when unknown fields are present (silent drop).
Runtime Surprise Risk
runtimeSurpriseRisk
Optional
Rollup risk that the run will succeed but behave unexpectedly due to schema-default fallbacks. Object: { level: low | medium | high, whyItMatters: plain-language explanation }. Fires high when 4+ fields rely on defaults.
Compatibility Impact
compatibilityImpact
Optional
Top-level rollup of driftSummary.compatibilityImpact — none | non-breaking | breaking. Safe to route on without walking into driftSummary.
Strictness Mode
strictness
Optional
Strictness mode in effect for this run: lenient | standard | strict

actorName
Optional
Resolved actor name in username/name format
Actor ID
actorId
Optional

Optional
Hash of the input schema for drift detection across scheduled runs
