  description

  Unquote is a JSON reading and debugging tool for developers. It detects and expands nested JSON values that have been escaped and stored as strings.
  
  It is useful for AI model outputs, agent session logs, MCP tool call records, JSONL logs, and complex API responses. Paste JSON or JSONL content into Unquote, and it will identify stringified JSON values and display the result in an interactive tree view.
  
  Key features:
  
  Detect and recursively expand stringified JSON
  Support JSON and JSONL formats
  Browse JSONL records with table-of-contents navigation
  Expand, collapse, and restore nested JSON
  Copy full output, node values, and JSON paths
  Light and dark themes
  Open selected webpage text in Unquote from the context menu
  Open the extension page with a keyboard shortcut
  All parsing happens locally in your browser. Your data stays on your device.

  Debugging nested, escaped JSON shouldn't require sending your data to a server.
