Why json_minify_prettify is rated Low
This tool reads and transforms JSON text format without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a deterministic formatter that processes input and returns output with no side effects. The operation is reversible (minified form can be prettified and vice versa). There is no access to external systems, no code execution, and no data destruction.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Parse[s] a JSON text string and re-serialize[s] it' — a pure transformation operation on supplied input that produces reformatted output.
