  "intent": [
    "Encode all semantic information in the field name itself so agents parse structured data without external schemas, documentation, or type systems — _ms/_s/_epoch_ms for time, _msats/_sats/_usd_cents for currency, _bytes for size, _secret for auto-redaction",
    "Define a JSONL output protocol where every line carries a kind discriminator (result, error, progress, or log), a payload field named after that kind, and a trace object for execution context (duration, token counts, cost, data source) — same structure whether the transport is CLI stdout, HTTP response body, MCP tool result, or SSE stream",
    "Provide three output formats via --output json|yaml|plain: JSON is the canonical lossless format, YAML preserves structure with quoted strings and --- separators, plain applies suffix-driven human formatting (epoch_ms → RFC 3339, _bytes → human-readable, _secret → ***, _ms ≥ 1000 → seconds)"

  "mutations": [
    "Address the empty-string key: a path segment may now be empty, so npm's package-lock root entry (packages..version) reads and writes, and join/parse round-trip as the grammar always claimed",
    "Refuse to emit an address that cannot be read back: a document-root empty-string key has no path spelling, so paths fails with document_unaddressable_key instead of printing a blank line the caller would feed back and be refused on",
    "Add values FILE KEY...: read many scalars from one parse, replacing one process and one full document re-parse per path (110 lockfile entries went from 632ms to 17ms, and from quadratic parse work to linear)",
    "Refuse a value containing a newline in values, since one-per-line framing would otherwise pair every later value with the wrong path; value still reads it, having no framing to break"
