Description

additionalProperties must be set to false, not an object schema

Rationale

LLM structured-output providers require additionalProperties: false to guarantee schema compliance. An object value indicates intent to define allowed extras, which most providers do not support.

Bad Example

{
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": { "type": "string" },
  "properties": {}
}

Good Example

{
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "properties": {}
}
