Define LLM JSON Schemas in Laravel With Forerunner

Define LLM JSON Schemas in Laravel With Forerunner image

Forerunner for Laravel is a package that provides a migration-inspired API for defining JSON schemas that ensure your LLM responses are perfectly structured every time. Define structured output schemas for LLMs using Laravel's familiar migration syntax:

use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Struct;
use Blaspsoft\Forerunner\Schema\Property;
 
$schema = Struct::define('User', 'A user schema', function (Property $property) {
$property->string('name', 'The user\'s full name')->required();
$property->string('email', 'The user\'s email address')->required();
$property->int('age', 'The user\'s age')->min(0)->max(150);
$property->boolean('is_active', 'Is the user account active?')->default(true);
})->toArray();

The above struct returns an array, and can also be converted to JSON:

{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The user's full name"
},
"email": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The user's email address"
},
"age": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "The user's age",
"minimum": 0,
"maximum": 150
},
"is_active": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Is the user account active?",
"default": true
}
},
"description": "A user schema",
"required": [
"name",
"email"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}

Main Features

  • Define structured output schemas for LLMs
  • Multiple field types available: String, Integer, Float, etc.
  • Helper methods for commonly used field formats
  • String format validation
  • Ensure field array items are unique
  • Strict mode for LLM APIs
  • Define schema metadata
  • And more

This package is currently a pre-release version, but we thought it was interesting enough to share. The API may change; plan accordingly.
