grepai-machine-output

Selects the right machine-readable output shape for GrepAI searches and shows how to consume each one safely. Covers full JSON with matched code, compact JSON with shortened keys, TOON row output with its quoting and escape rules, jq, Python and Node.js consumers, saving results to files, opening hits in an editor, clipboard hand-off, and MCP tool calls with a format argument. Use when GrepAI results must feed a script, pipeline or AI agent context, or when a token budget forces the smallest workable payload. Not for interactive human-readable searching, building or refreshing the search index, or trace tool behaviour beyond its format options.
