YAML vs JSON

JSON is the machine contract. YAML is the authoring surface. Author in YAML (readable), validate with JSON Schema, emit JSON at runtime.

Load Scaffold:

YAML Input

id: logistics.v1
intent: "Critical Rerouting"
priorities:
  - strict: "Cold Chain < 4C"
  - flexible: "Standard Delivery"
tradeoffs:
  - IF: "Delay > 4h"
    THEN: "Air freight override"
anti_patterns:
  - "Never split medical pallets"

JSON Output

Dev Note: This converter uses a safe subset for learning. In CI/production, parse with a real YAML library (Node: yaml or js-yaml) and validate against JSON Schema.
