How do I find nested keys in a complex configuration?

You can use the recursive key discovery command '..keys($this)' to find all keys at any depth, or navigate level-by-level using the 'keys()' function on specific nodes.

Can I use this for very large files?

Yes, the skill is designed for efficiency, offering array sampling and search predicates to explore large documents without requiring the entire file to be displayed or processed at once.

What makes this different from using standard jq or yq?

This skill uses Dasel, which provides a single, unified syntax that works across all supported formats, eliminating the need to learn different query languages for JSON, YAML, and XML.

Which file formats does this skill support?

It supports a wide range of structured data formats including JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, CSV, HCL, and INI, with automatic format detection based on file extensions.

Explores, queries, and identifies schemas of structured data files across multiple formats using Dasel v3.

This skill empowers Claude to navigate and analyze unfamiliar structured data files such as JSON, YAML, XML, and more without loading massive documents into memory. It provides a systematic workflow for format detection, key discovery, and nested value extraction, making it essential for debugging complex configurations, analyzing API responses, or understanding large datasets before transformation. By leveraging Dasel's universal syntax, users can perform breadth-first exploration or search-based discovery across various configuration and data formats using a single consistent interface.
