Provider fallback system:
- Add optional fallback field to Provider dataclass
- Automatically try fallback provider when primary fails (timeout, error, offline)
- Prevent infinite loops with circular fallback detection
- Add fallback column and dropdown in providers UI
Visual schema builder for prompt steps:
- Add SchemaBuilderDialog with table-based field editor
- Support field name, type, description, and required flag
- Live JSON schema preview
- Integrate into PromptStepDialog with Edit Schema button
- Fix output_schema being lost when editing prompt steps
Other improvements:
- Add search box to tools page
- Improve schema example generation for structured output
- Update CLAUDE.md documentation

Add schema validation and retry logic for AI responses:
- Add output_schema, max_retries, plain_text fields to PromptStep
- Add DEFAULT_OUTPUT_SCHEMA with output/reasoning fields
- Implement append_schema_instructions() for prompt augmentation
- Implement validate_schema() using jsonschema library
- Add retry logic with error feedback on validation failure
- Enhance substitute_variables() for nested field access ({var.field})
- Add jsonschema to dependencies
- Update GUI dialog with plain_text checkbox and max_retries spinner
- Add comprehensive tests for structured output and nested access
Tools using plain_text=True bypass validation (current behavior).
Tools without plain_text get structured JSON output with schema enforcement.
Migration Phase 1 complete. Next: Apply plain_text=True to all 72 tools.
