Gives Claude three tools to handle JSON5, the relaxed JSON superset that allows comments, trailing commas, and unquoted keys. parse_json5 reads it, to_json5 writes it, and to_strict_json converts it to RFC-compliant JSON for systems that choke on the extensions. Useful when an LLM or human has emitted JSON-with-comments and you need to feed it into a strict parser, or when you're round-tripping configuration files that benefit from inline documentation. Part of a fourteen-server collection from mukundakatta/mcp-stack that includes other format transforms (TOML, YAML, CSV) and RAG helpers. Installs via npx with stdio transport.
