# Outlines: Structured Text Generation
## When to Use This Skill
Use Outlines when you need to:
- **Guarantee valid JSON/XML/code** structure during generation
- **Use Pydantic models** for type-safe outputs
- **Support local models** (Transformers, llama.cpp, vLLM)
- **Maximize inference speed** with zero-overhead structured generation
- **Generate against JSON schemas** automatically
- **Control token sampling** at the grammar level
