Chapter 2.2 -- Structured Output to a C# Record

Companion code for Generative AI in .NET, Chapter 2 sections 2.2.3 and 2.2.4.

Demonstrates IChatClient.GetResponseAsync<T>(...) -- one call extracts a strongly-typed FlightBooking record from a free-text confirmation message. Description attributes drive the auto-generated JSON schema sent with the request.

Run it

export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
dotnet run --project samples/ch02-extensions-ai/02.2-structured-output
