# Mistral Chat, Streaming, and Structured Output

## Overview

Select the simplest chat mode satisfying the product contract. Treat non-streaming text, streaming events, and structured output as different state machines with shared safety and usage controls.

## Prerequisites

- A model policy based on current account-visible evidence.
- A bounded prompt/data class and maximum output policy.
- A parser, schema validator, cancellation path, and synthetic fixtures.

## Current Contract

Chat uses `POST /v1/chat/completions`. Streaming and response-format options are endpoint capabilities, not guarantees for every model; validate the current schema and selected model.

## Authentication

Use server-side Bearer auth through the approved adapter. Never forward credentials or raw headers to users, tools, or browser code.

## Instructions

1. Translate the requirement into text, stream, or structured mode and document why.
2. Resolve a permitted model dynamically and pin reproducibility parameters.
3. Assemble trusted policy and bounded user content; keep untrusted text out of control instructions.
4. For streams, validate ordering, cancellation, terminal state, partial output, and usage.
5. For structured output, parse and validate the application schema; reject prose fallback.
6. Record request identity, latency, finish state, usage, validation, and retention class.

## Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, locks, configuration, tests, and evidence. Use Write and Edit only for approved repository changes. Invocation alone does not authorize network calls, paid usage, uploads, stateful resources, admin mutations, deployments, or deletion.

## Approval Boundaries

Require approval for live requests, new data classes, higher output, model fallback, or retention. Returned text is data, not executable authority.

## Error Handling

- Transport success can still fail schema or safety validation.
- Interrupted streams require an explicit partial-output policy.
- Unsupported option/model combinations must fail closed.

## Output

Return mode, model evidence, endpoint, schema version, terminal and validation state, latency, usage, retention, and rollback. Mark every rejected or partial response explicitly.

## Examples

- Stream synthetic content while proving cancellation has no business side effect.
- Require known JSON fields and reject unvalidated free-form fallback.

## Validation

Test malformed output, missing terminal events, cancellation, blocked content, capability drift, and usage capture. Prove that no failure path silently returns unvalidated content.

## Resources

- [Current first-party evidence map](references/official-docs.md) — recheck dated sources before relying on mutable endpoints, models, limits, prices, preview status, or retention.
- Record live account observations as environment-specific evidence, not universal Mistral guarantees.
