The Artifact Specification for AI-built document contracts Pair Cuddler's flagship shared authoring standard with one Document Role Specification so a definition-building agent can turn document intent into a governed contract that downstream agents can follow.
The Artifact Specification is a public standard, not an AI generator. Compatible agents use it with the applicable Document Role and source evidence.
How AI agents use the Artifact Specification A definition-building agent authors the contract. A document-building agent then uses that contract and its structured guidance to prepare validatable document content.
Artifact Specification + Document Role
The shared authoring rules, one role-specific standard, source context, and domain evidence establish the governing inputs. → Definition-building agent
Converts knowable intent into exact constraints and structured for-ai guidance. → Governed definition bundle
Produces the Data Schema, sanitized example, aligned Template and Process documents, and current definition file. → Document-building agent
Follows the selected definitions, exact schema identity, and embedded guidance instead of an ad hoc prompt. → Validated Artifact Documents
Data and Template inputs validate independently before a compatible runtime renders the final Report. Only the Data member is authored locally as a family-specific schema. Template and Process documents consume the published Cuddler role schemas, and Process remains upstream as authoring and controller context.
What the contract protects
Definitive constraints Turn knowable intent into required fields, types, formats, enumerations, cardinalities, and conditional rules instead of leaving them to examples.
Instructions that travel Carry schema-node for-ai guidance with the contract so compatible assistants prepare values from the same instructions reviewers can inspect.
Traceable handoffs Keep governing standards, exact schema identities, publication inventories, examples, and implementation files aligned across the definition-to-document handoff.
Validation before rendering Validate Data and Template inputs against their exact contracts before rendering, while Process stays upstream as controlled authoring context.
Cuddler Artifact Specification
Use the shared authoring, conformance, versioning, attribution, and publication contract that every public Artifact Definition must follow.
Read the Artifact Specification Document Role
Choose whether the artifact is Data, Template, or Process, then pair that role-specific standard with the Artifact Specification.
Open Document Role Artifact Definitions
Use the published definition families, exact schema identities, examples, and governing links to implement concrete artifact types.
Open Artifact Definitions Case studies from teams shipping real documents. Each sponsor used Cuddler differently, but the same pattern held: structure the data, lock the template, and make the output easier to trust.
Boostware used Cuddler to build a workflow system around document generation, turning operational know-how into structured, reviewable outputs that fit human approval gates.
Read case study Cocoon CS used Cuddler to define reusable document templates for evidence collection, helping audit-facing outputs stay consistent across frameworks, controls, and review cycles.
Read case study Day Guardian used Cuddler to build child care safety reports that stayed structured, traceable, and ready for review inside a broader compliance reporting system.
Read case study EZ Support used Cuddler to streamline the development of SOPs autonomously, giving AI a controlled publishing contract for the procedures that support secure IT operations.
Read case study Choose your side of the contract Start with the Artifact Specification whether you are defining a new artifact type or using an existing definition to build a document.

AI Safety Policy Cuddler.dev is operated by TrackThat Inc. This policy explains how AI-assisted systems, generated outputs, and automation patterns associated with Cuddler.dev are expected to be used, reviewed, and constrained.
Updated: March 23, 2026
1. Purpose and Scope Cuddler.dev publishes standards, examples, schema artifacts, embedded guidance, and implementation guidance intended to support safe and structured AI-assisted document generation. This policy applies to AI-generated or AI-assisted content, workflows, and integrations that TrackThat Inc. publishes through Cuddler.dev or uses to operate related services.
2. Human Accountability AI systems may assist with drafting, transformation, classification, or rendering workflows, but people remain responsible for decisions, approvals, and public publication. TrackThat Inc. expects human review before relying on AI-generated outputs for legal, commercial, compliance, or operationally sensitive use cases.
3. Validation Before Use Generated JSON and templates should be checked against the applicable schema, specification, or implementation contract before use. Validation failures, version mismatches, or unsafe render conditions should block downstream publishing or rendering. Examples and reusable artifacts should prefer deterministic, inspectable structures over opaque free-form output. 4. Safety Controls for Rendered Output Untrusted content should remain subject to strict sanitization by default. Scripts, unsafe embeds, event handlers, and non-whitelisted protocols should not be introduced through AI-generated templates or content. Any relaxation of sanitization or external-asset controls should be deliberate, reviewable, and appropriate to the trust level of the content source. 5. Data Handling and Confidentiality Artifact Documents are confidential by default unless explicitly designated otherwise. Users should not place confidential, regulated, or sensitive information into AI systems unless the applicable service, contract, and safeguards are appropriate for that information. Data shared with AI-assisted workflows should be limited to what is reasonably necessary for the task.
6. Prohibited or Restricted Uses Do not use Cuddler.dev materials to misrepresent authorship, provenance, approvals, or compliance status. Do not use AI-generated output from Cuddler.dev workflows as a substitute for legal, security, financial, or other professional advice without qualified review. Do not use published schemas, examples, or embedded guidance to facilitate harmful, deceptive, abusive, or unlawful activity. 7. Monitoring, Correction, and Improvement TrackThat Inc. may review feedback, investigate unsafe behavior, revise published materials, or remove content when accuracy, safety, or misuse concerns arise. Safety-related fixes may include prompt changes, schema changes, documentation changes, stricter validation, or tighter publication controls.
8. Questions and Incident Reporting Questions about this policy, or reports of unsafe AI behavior associated with Cuddler.dev, may be sent to hello@cuddler.dev .
