## What changed

- Detects ADI responses that contain only empty values, such as from non-invoice, blank or corrupt PDFs
- Stops the structure step with a clear error instead of creating an empty draft

- Tests added for detecting empty extraction responses
- Behaviour changes for users or extensions.
