Using the <_out> Tag

Overview of <_out>

The <_out> tag is the designated container where content generation systems output rendered results, such as HTML, text, or even raw data. It's crucial in the context of AI-driven tools where the output from a model must be clearly delineated and isolated from surrounding elements.

It’s often used to wrap the final result of an operation, such as the output from an AI, and ensures that dynamic information is structured in a consistent, predictable way for processing or display.

How to Use <_out>

Using the <_out> tag is straightforward but should follow specific format rules to maintain consistency and avoid errors:

  1. All generated content should be placed directly between the <_out> and </_out> tags.
  2. Ensure no additional whitespace or characters are present before or after the tag delimiters to prevent parsing issues.
  3. Never nest multiple <_out> tags—use multiple sections as needed with proper formatting guidelines.

Examples of Proper Usage

<_out>
  <h2>Generated Content</h2>
  <p>This is dynamic content that will be rendered and displayed.</p>
</_out>

In this example, the content between the <_out> and </_out> tags will be interpreted as output or result content and will not interfere with parsing the broader context of the file or application.

Common Misuses to Avoid

Avoid including any JavaScript or external link assets (like images) inside the <_out> tag unless they are specifically related to the final output and are properly formatted to follow security and licensing rules.

Avoid malformed or incomplete tag usage. Always close the tag, even if the output is empty or conditional, as this helps maintain the integrity of content generation tools and systems that rely on strict parsing.

Advanced Use Cases

For complex systems that generate both structured documents and scripts, the <_out> tag can be used with additional nested content that follows the standard HTML or XML structure.

<_out>
  <element>
    <title>Report</title>
    <content>This report demonstrates how to integrate data and visuals using <_out> and related tools.</content>
    <figures>
      <image src="/whatisanouttag/report-figures/image-1.svg"/>
    </figures>
  </element>
</_out>

In these advanced configurations, the internal structure remains valid as long as it respects the parsing and formatting constraints of the system.
