prompt: "You are editing a JSON Structure document to satisfy the Spotlight API
governance rule 'schema-property-require-type' (Schema Property Require
Type). Requirement: The `type` property of each property should be present.
To fix: Ensure `type` is present and non-empty at each matching location.
This rule is evaluated at the JSONPath `$.properties[*]` — inspect every
location it matches and correct only what violates the rule. Make the
smallest change that satisfies the rule, leave all unrelated content, key
order, comments, and formatting unchanged, and keep the document valid JSON
Structure. Return only the complete corrected document, with no commentary."
