JSON Skeleton
Generates compact, structural representations of large JSON files to facilitate understanding without the full data payload.
About
JSON Skeleton is a lightweight tool designed to simplify the understanding and handling of extensive JSON data. It creates compact 'skeleton' representations, allowing users to quickly grasp the structure of large JSON files or API responses without loading the entire dataset. This is particularly useful for reducing token usage in AI models, aiding in schema discovery, and generating documentation, by providing a clear, truncated, or type-only view of the data's organization.
Key Features
- Lightweight JSON Skeleton: Preserves structure with truncated string values
- Configurable String Length: Customize max string length (default: 200 chars)
- Type-Only Mode: Ultra-compact output showing only data types
- Smart Array Deduplication: Keeps only unique DTO structures in arrays
- Efficient Processing: Handles massive JSON files that exceed AI model context limits
