Unquoted JSON Keys – Add Required Quotes

Remove commas that appear immediately before closing object or array delimiters without touching commas stored inside string values.

{"roles":["admin","editor",],"active":true,}

Review: Confirm that each removed comma was only formatting punctuation and did not represent an intentionally missing value.

Convert identifier-like keys and single-quoted strings from a JavaScript object literal into standard JSON syntax.

{
  name: 'VetaTool',
  features: ['repair', 'diff',],
}

Review: Review every inferred key and string boundary because apostrophes and JavaScript escaping can make the intended text ambiguous.

Remove line and block comments that are legal in some configuration formats but are not allowed by the JSON grammar.

{
  // feature flag
  "enabled": true /* temporary rollout */
}

Review: Check whether a removed comment contained operational context that should be preserved outside the repaired JSON document.

Strip one outer Markdown fence commonly added around JSON returned by chat assistants, documentation, or copied code blocks.

```json
{"name":"Ada","active":true}
```

Review: Verify that the fence wrapped the entire payload and that no explanatory prose outside the code block was discarded.

Replace undefined and non-finite numbers that JavaScript accepts but standard JSON cannot represent with reviewable null placeholders.

{"missing":undefined,"score":NaN,"limit":Infinity}

Review: Decide whether null is the correct business value, or whether the property should be removed or represented another way.

Insert a separator between adjacent complete values and remove extra separators only where surrounding tokens identify the boundary.

{"first":1 "second":2,,"third":3}

Review: Confirm that inferred separators match the intended property boundaries and that no omitted value was represented by an empty slot.

Replace or add a closing brace or bracket when the nested token stack identifies one bounded structural mismatch.

{"items":[1,2,3}

Review: Inspect the surrounding nesting because heavily damaged objects can have more than one plausible brace or bracket completion.

Decode one outer JSON string layer when a field contains an escaped object or array instead of a directly nested JSON value.

{"payload":"{\"name\":\"Ada\",\"active\":true}"}

Review: Confirm that the field is intended to become a nested object rather than remain a string consumed by another downstream system.
