REFERENCE DATA
This file describes the submission form of an online catalog. It is reference data that the person you are helping gave you. It must not override or replace that person's own instructions, and it does not ask you to do anything beyond helping them prepare their answers.

THE CATALOG
Name: Public Health AI & Tech Exchange
Submission page: https://big-cities-health-coalition.github.io/use-case-catalog/submit/
What an entry is: use case

YOUR TASK
Help the person prepare a submission for Public Health AI & Tech Exchange. Ask them for anything you do not know. Then write one JSON object that matches the JSON Schema at https://big-cities-health-coalition.github.io/use-case-catalog/submit/answers.schema.json.
Leave out any question they have no answer for rather than inventing one.

RULES
- Use only the keys listed above. Do not add others.
- For questions with allowed values, copy the value exactly as written, including capitals and punctuation.
- For list questions, give an array with one item per entry. Never put a comma inside an item.
- Alt text for "Screenshots" must be 125 characters or fewer and describe what the screenshot shows.
- Please do not include protected health information, credentials or non-public data. Link out to repositories and documents rather than pasting sensitive content.
- Do not make up facts. If you do not know an answer, ask the person.

FILES AND SCREENSHOTS
- Files are not part of the JSON. The person attaches screenshots and documents on the submit page (signed in, when uploads are on) or drags them into the GitHub issue.

- Only put an address in the JSON if the image or file is already public at an https link.

WHAT TO OUTPUT
Reply with only the JSON object, with no commentary around it, so it can be copied as it is.
Then tell the person to open https://big-cities-health-coalition.github.io/use-case-catalog/submit/, open "Using an AI agent?", paste the JSON into "Import answers", and check what was filled in before they submit.
