Representative output example

This illustrative JSON is derived from the current implementation-backed result contract. It shows what the command can return without claiming a recorded execution; values vary with inputs, host, permissions, and optional tools.

Example command: qzx makeScaffProgramCsharp my_project --json

{
    "success": true,
    "message": "Creates a basic scaffolding for a C# program. In this illustrative example, the command completed successfully.",
    "project_name": "Example value"
}

Errors and limits

The public contract requires success=false and a descriptive message on failure. This catalog does not yet declare a command-specific error taxonomy; inspect the result and do not invent error codes.

QZX is alpha software. Optional dependencies, permissions, and host capabilities can change the result.

Evidence workflow: requires an isolated disposable target.
