NER
Named-entity recognition
gpt-5-mini
Instruction
Given a phrase, classify it is english named entity (e.g., persons, organizations, works of art) in Latin script, or not (e.g., literals, dates, URLs, verbose phrases). For disambiguation, the statement where the phrase occurs as object is also given. Please return a JSON object with `phrase` (string, the phrase being analyzed) and `is_ne` (boolean, indicating whether the phrase is a Named Entity).
Input
Phrase: Xcode Metal shader compiler | Statement: [Metal Shading Language, tooling, Xcode Metal shader compiler]

NEDg
Description generation
gpt-5.1
Instruction
Generate a one-sentence description of the target entity. You are given a context triple in the form (subject, predicate, object), where the object is the target entity. # Instructions Use the triple to infer relevant information about the entity. Describe the entity based on what is most defining, well-known. Avoid repeating the information from the triple, unless really essential. # Response Format Return only the sentence: "Description: [one-sentence description of the target entity]"
Input
Entity: Xcode Metal shader compiler Triple: [Metal Shading Language, tooling, Xcode Metal shader compiler]
Generated description
Xcode Metal shader compiler is Apple’s integrated toolchain component that compiles Metal Shading Language code into optimized GPU binaries for iOS, macOS, and other Apple platforms.
