encoding-formats

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables you to encode, decode, and convert data across common formats such as Base64, URL encoding, hex, Unicode, JWTs, hashing, and various serialization formats. It simplifies interoperability and quick data validation in development and debugging tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Encode and decode Base64, URL-encoded strings, and hex values.
• Inspect and convert between JSON, YAML, CSV, MessagePack, and Protobuf wire formats.
• Decode JWT payloads to inspect claims and verify data integrity in API workflows.
• Validate hashing and checksums as part of data pipelines and quality checks.
• Use in debugging scenarios to quickly transform data formats during integration work.

Quick Start

• Encode a sample string to Base64: echo -n "Hello, World!" | base64
• Decode back to verify: echo "SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ==" | base64 -d
