How this service works
Deterministic, dependency-free data utilities served over x402 micropayments (USDC on Base). None of these call another AI model. Keyword: JSON repair Keyword: malformed JSON Keyword: broken JSON from LLM Keyword: fix JSON output Keyword: JSON sanitizer Keyword: truncated JSON recovery Keyword: YAML to JSON Keyword: convert YAML Keyword: parse YAML config Keyword: cron next run Keyword: cron parser Keyword: when does cron run next Keyword: unified diff Keyword: line diff Keyword: text diff Keyword: HTML to text Keyword: extract links Keyword: extract emails Keyword: scrape text Keyword: whois lookup Keyword: domain registration Keyword: registrar Keyword: domain expiry date Keyword: RDAP Keyword: dns lookup Keyword: MX records Keyword: TXT records Keyword: A record Keyword: DNS over HTTPS Keyword: github repo stats Keyword: github stars Keyword: repository popularity Keyword: OSS project metadata Keyword: email validation Keyword: verify email address Keyword: check MX deliverability Keyword: email syntax Use case: repair a JSON code block wrapped in Markdown fences Use case: turn a docker-compose or CI YAML file into JSON Use case: compute the next UTC fire time of a cron expression Use case: produce a unified diff between two versions of a file Use case: strip HTML tags and pull out links, emails, and headings Use case: look up a domain's registrar, status and expiry before purchase Use case: check when a domain registration lapses Use case: resolve A, AAAA, MX, TXT or NS records for a hostname Use case: find a domain's mail servers and SPF TXT record Use case: compare GitHub repository stars, forks and activity for market research Use case: check whether an email address is well-formed and its domain accepts mail
Output
Returns a JSON object with an 'ok' boolean, a 'value' field containing the parsed JSON equivalent of the input YAML, and a 'warnings' array listing any non-fatal issues encountered during parsing (e.g. duplicate keys, type coercions).
Example use cases
Config file format migration
“I have a YAML config file for my app and I need it as a JSON object so I can pass it to a REST API — can you convert it? Here's the YAML: 'server:\n host: 0.0.0.0\n port: 8080\nlogging:\n level: info'”
Kubernetes manifest to JSON
“Take this Kubernetes deployment YAML and give it back to me as JSON: 'apiVersion: apps/v1\nkind: Deployment\nmetadata:\n name: my-app\nspec:\n replicas: 3'”
CI pipeline YAML normalization
“My CI pipeline config is in YAML and I need it normalized to JSON so I can store it in our database — please convert: 'pipeline:\n stages:\n - build\n - test\n - deploy'”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://penniless-json-repair.sjaman.workers.dev/yaml/tojsonWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, deterministic, AI-free YAML-to-JSON conversion with no external dependencies — especially useful inside automated pipelines or agent workflows where reproducibility matters and you want to avoid the nondeterminism of LLM-based format conversion. Ideal when the YAML is a config file, Kubernetes manifest, CI/CD definition, or any structured document that must be losslessly round-tripped to JSON.
Side effects
- Invalid or unparseable YAML returns an error response with ok: false and a description of the parse failure
- Deeply nested or extremely large YAML may hit size or depth limits
- Binary or non-UTF-8 YAML content may not be handled correctly
- Payment failure (x402) results in a 402 response before the conversion is attempted
