@skip

The @skip attribute in BAML is used to exclude certain fields or values from being included in prompts or parsed responses. This can be useful when certain data is not relevant for the LLM’s processing.

Prompt Impact

Without @skip

1
enum MyEnum {
2
  Value1
3
  Value2
4
}

ctx.output_format:

MyEnum
---
Value1
Value2

With @skip

1
enum MyEnum {
2
  Value1
3
  Value2 @skip
4
}

ctx.output_format:

MyEnum
---
Value1
