Json Linter

Validates JSON syntax across the workspace. Use this skill to check for syntax errors in configuration files, memory files, or data assets.

A simple utility to recursively scan the workspace for .json files and validate their syntax using JSON.parse().

Usage

bash

# Scan the entire workspace (from current working directory)
node skills/json-linter/index.js

# Scan a specific directory
node skills/json-linter/index.js --dir path/to/dir

Output

JSON report containing:

• scanned_at: Timestamp
• total_files: Number of .json files scanned
• valid_files: Number of valid files
• invalid_files: Number of invalid files
• errors: Array of error objects:
  • path: Relative path to file
  • error: Error message (e.g., "Unexpected token } in JSON at position 42")
