# Guarded JSONC scalar rewriter

Build-time release reference. Runtime readiness, deployment, payment settlement and external indexing are not evaluated here. Prices are proposed; this file cannot authorize execution or payment.

WHEN TO USE: Rewrite existing supplied JSONC scalar values by guarded RFC 6901 pointers while preserving every source character outside the selected value tokens. Strict object-root JSON plus comments and explicit trailing-comma mode; duplicate decoded keys, malformed untouched regions and unsafe integer-valued numbers fail atomically. No general JSON5, structural edits, configuration security checks or filesystem writes.

Release: 0.29.0. Built: 2026-10-06T15:38:00Z.

## Choose for
- Change guarded scalar configuration values while preserving JSONC comments and untouched formatting
- Resolve scalar JSON pointers to source spans before an exact configuration edit

## Outside this profile
- JSON5 syntax, root arrays, duplicate object names, unsafe integers, scalar type changes, insertions, deletions or structure changes
- General formatting, schema validation, semantic config safety, arbitrary-precision decimal preservation or file writes
- Uploading, executing artifacts, contacting agents or registries, publishing, or changing remote state
- Verifying semantic truth, source authenticity, permissions, target API acceptance or signatures

Proposed nominal USD 0.005 per successful call; payer fees excluded. No verified runtime availability.
