Enum OutputFormat 

pub enum OutputFormat {
    Json,
    Auto,
    Table,
}

Output serialization format for verb results (ADR-078).

Orthogonal to PresentationMode: PresentationMode controls field-level transforms (UUID shortening, timestamp compaction, empty-field dropping); OutputFormat controls how the resulting serde_json::Value is serialized or rendered to the wire string.

Default is OutputFormat::Json on every surface: compact and machine-walkable. Verbose JSON is lossless; Agent JSON additionally elides namespace="local" and duplicate properties entries (ADR-078 Amendment 3, Machine scope) but keeps full_id — it is the caller’s chaining handle, not a redundant field.

Note: Yaml is a clean follow-up — implemented as a 3-variant enum (Json, Auto, Table) per ADR-078 §“yaml” which permits omission when the in-tree emitter would balloon.

Variants

Json

Compact JSON (serde_json::to_string). Default; lossless in Verbose presentation, Machine-scope redundancy-reduced in Agent presentation (full_id retained — see RedundancyScope).

Auto

Shape-aware: markdown table for homogeneous record arrays (with envelope siblings preserved as trailing key: value lines), compact-JSON fallback for every other shape.

Table

Force the markdown-table renderer regardless of detected shape. Ordinary results share Auto’s dispatch. Opt-in parsed note bodies are stringified for table display; Auto preserves their JSON values.
