Compute a line-level diff between two strings. Returns a unified-style patch and per-line change list. Returns: JSON line-diff with { added, removed, unchanged } arrays. Example input: {"a":"line 1\nline 2\nline 3","b":"line 1\nline 2 changed\nline 3"}

Convert a timestamp between two IANA timezones. Returns the wall-clock time in the target zone. Returns: JSON { utc, zone, local } with the timestamp rendered in the target IANA timezone. Example input: {"timestamp":"2026-07-11T12:00:00Z","to":"America/Los_Angeles"} On error, includes hint: `timestamp` must be ISO 8601 (e.g. 2026-07-11T12:00:00Z); `to` must be an IANA zone like America/New_York.

Convert between TOML 1.0, JSON and YAML, validating the input. TOML dates become RFC 3339 strings in JSON; nulls are dropped when writing TOML (it has no null) and reported; integers beyond 2^53 are kept exact; inf and nan become strings in JSON. Use from=toml,to=toml to validate and normalise a TOML file. Returns: Text: the converted document. structuredContent { output, warnings[] } where warnings list dropped nulls, large integers and non-finite numbers. Example input: {"text":"[package]\nname = \"demo\"\nversion = \"0.1.0\"\n\n[dependencies]\nserde = \"1.0\"","from":"toml","to":"json","indent":2} On error, includes hint: TOML output needs an object at the top level; wrap arrays in a key.

Build a seeded single or double elimination bracket (padded to the next power of two, byes to the top seeds, standard 1 v n seeding) or a round robin schedule by the circle method. Players are given in seed order. Returns the round-one pairings, byes, every round and a printable text version. Returns: Elimination: JSON { format, players, bracketSize, byes, gamesNeeded{ min, max }, rounds[{ name, matches[{ id, top, bottom, walkover }] }], text }. Round robin: { format, players, rounds[{ round, games[[a, b]], sitsOut }], games, text }. Later-round slots read TBD. Example input: {"players":["Alder","Birch","Cedar","Hazel","Maple","Rowan"],"format":"single"} On error, includes hint: List players strongest first; pass format 'double' for a losers bracket or 'round-robin' for everyone-plays-everyone. Shuffle the list yourself for random seeding.

Parse tab-separated values into JSON. First row is treated as header unless header=false. Returns: JSON array of row objects derived from the TSV header row. Example input: {"text":"name\tage\nAda\t36\nGrace\t85"} On error, includes hint: `text` must use real tab (\t) separators, not multiple spaces.

Percent-decode a URL-encoded string. Returns: Percent-decoded plain text. Example input: {"text":"hello%20world%20%26%20friends"}

Percent-encode a string for use in URLs. Returns: Percent-encoded string suitable for URL query values. Example input: {"text":"hello world & friends"}

Parse a User-Agent header into browser, engine, OS, device type, vendor, model and CPU (ua-parser-js), and detect search, AI, social, SEO and monitoring bots and HTTP libraries. Notes explain User-Agent reduction limits such as Windows 11 reporting as Windows NT 10.0. Returns: JSON { summary, browser{name,version,major}, engine{name,version}, os{name,version}, device{type,vendor,model}, cpu{architecture}, isBot, bot{name,category,owner}|null, notes[] }. Example input: {"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 17_5 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/17.5 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1"}

Add Google Analytics UTM parameters (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_id, utm_term, utm_content) to a landing page URL. Keeps existing query parameters and the #fragment, lowercases values by default, and predicts the GA4 default channel group. Returns: JSON { url, params, predictedChannel, warnings[] }: the tagged URL, the UTM values used, the likely GA4 default channel group (approximation) and any naming warnings. Example input: {"url":"https://example.com/pricing?plan=pro","source":"newsletter","medium":"email","campaign":"October Launch","content":"hero_button"}

Generate one or more v4 UUIDs. Returns: JSON array of v4 UUID strings. Example input: {"count":3} On error, includes hint: `count` must be an integer between 1 and 100.

Count words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs and lines in text, estimate reading and speaking time, list the most frequent words and check the text against common platform limits (X post weighted length, Bluesky, LinkedIn, SMS segments, meta description). Same rules as redbison.dev/word-counter. Returns: JSON { words, characters, charactersNoSpaces, sentences, paragraphs, lines, uniqueWords, utf8Bytes, averageWordLength, averageSentenceLength, readingTime, readingSeconds, speakingTime, speakingSeconds, topWords[{word,count,percent}], platformLimits[{platform,limit,used,remaining,over,detail}] }. Example input: {"text":"Short sentences help. Long ones, full of clauses that wander, do not.","readingWpm":238,"speakingWpm":150,"topWords":5}

Draw random would-you-rather questions from RedBison's original question bank, filtered by audience (kids, family, work, party), with no repeats within one call. Returns: JSON { audience[], available, questions[{ id, question, a, b, tags[] }] }. Example input: {"audience":["work"],"count":3} On error, includes hint: Audiences: kids, family, work, party. count is capped at the number of matching questions.

Pretty-print an XML document. Returns: Pretty-printed XML string with normalized indentation. Example input: {"xml":"<root><a>1</a><b>2</b></root>","indent":2}

Normalize YAML indentation and whitespace. Returns: Normalized YAML string (2-space indent, collapsed blank lines). Example input: {"yaml":"a: 1\nb: 2\n\n\nc: 3"}

Convert simple YAML (maps, lists, scalars, flow {} / []) to JSON. Anchors, tags, and complex block scalars are not supported. Returns: Pretty-printed JSON built from the YAML input. Example input: {"yaml":"name: Ada\nskills:\n - math\n - logic"} On error, includes hint: Pass the YAML document as `yaml`; only 2-space indented block YAML is supported.
