Description

Problem

Current JSON/YAML output is minimal - just {"config": [...]}. It lacks context about what operation was performed, platform used, and when generated.

Proposed Solution

Include metadata in structured output:

  • tool name and version
  • platform
  • operation type
  • timestamp
  • input file paths
  • line count

Benefits

  • Traceability
  • Reproducibility
  • Easier automation pipeline processing
  • Better debugging

Acceptance Criteria

  • JSON output includes metadata object
  • YAML output includes metadata
  • Option to exclude metadata for minimal output
  • Documentation updated
  • Tests updated
