FAQ

Why does AI output invalid JSON?

Models sometimes include explanations, markdown fences or JavaScript-style syntax instead of strict JSON.

Can this handle code fences?

Yes. The repair tool strips common json and JavaScript code fences.

Should I ask AI to output strict JSON?

Yes. A strict prompt helps, but a repair step is useful when output still breaks.
