+# Duplicate Finder Script - Verification Report
+
+## Artifact Created
+**File:** /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark/duplicate_finder.py
+**Size:** 2041 bytes
+**Syntax:** Verified OK (lint pass)
+
+## Script Purpose
+A Python utility to find duplicate files by SHA-256 content hash. Useful for identifying redundant files across directories.
+
+## Verification Results
+
+### Test 1: Clean directory scan
+```
+$ python3 duplicate_finder.py /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark 1
+No duplicates found in /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark (depth <= 1)
+```
+**Status:** Script executed without errors (exit code 0)
+
+### Test 2: Duplicate detection
+Created test directory with actual duplicates:
+```bash
+$ mkdir -p /tmp/dup_test
+$ echo "hello world" > /tmp/dup_test/file_a.txt
+$ echo "hello world" > /tmp/dup_test/file_b.txt
+```
+
+Ran scan:
+```
+$ python3 duplicate_finder.py /tmp/dup_test 1
+Found 1 duplicate group(s):
+
+[hash: a948904f2f0f...]
+  /tmp/dup_test/file_a.txt (12 bytes)
+  /tmp/dup_test/file_b.txt (12 bytes)
+```
+**Status:** Detected correct duplicate pair with matching hash
+
+## Usage
+```bash
+python3 duplicate_finder.py <directory> [max_depth]
+```
+- `directory`: Path to search
+- `max_depth`: Maximum directory depth (default: 2)
+
+## Features
+- SHA-256 content hashing
+- Configurable max depth to avoid deep scans
+- Skips hidden files and __pycache__
+- Outputs file size for verification
+- Handles permission errors gracefully
+
+## Evidence Summary
+- Script file written and verified: OK
+- Linting passed: OK
+- Execution test 1 passed: No duplicates in clean dir
+- Execution test 2 passed: Found expected duplicate pair
+- Hash verification: Both duplicate files matched (a948904f2f0f...)

+# JSON Formatter Utility
+
+**File:** `json_formatter.py`  
+**Location:** `/root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark/json_formatter.py`
+
+## Purpose
+A Python utility that validates and pretty-prints JSON files with customizable indentation.
+
+## Usage
+```bash
+python3 json_formatter.py <input.json> [indent]
+```
+
+**Arguments:**
+- `input.json` (required): Path to the JSON file to format
+- `indent` (optional): Number of spaces for indentation (default: 2)
+
+## Features
+- Validates JSON syntax before formatting
+- Sort keys alphabetically for consistent output
+- Handles Unicode characters properly (ensure_ascii=False)
+- Descriptive error messages with line/column for invalid JSON
+- Exit codes: 0 (success), 1 (no args), 2 (file not found), 3 (JSON error), 4 (other error)
+
+## Verification
+
+### Test 1: Valid JSON file
+```bash
+$ python3 json_formatter.py /root/.hermes/gateway_state.json
+```
+**Result:** Successfully formatted valid JSON file with 96 lines output.
+
+### Test 2: Invalid JSON handling
+```bash
+$ python3 json_formatter.py test_invalid.json
+JSON Error: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes at line 1, column 2
+Exit code: 3
+```
+**Result:** Correctly detected and reported JSON syntax error.
+
+### Test 3: Output validation
+```bash
+$ python3 -m json.tool gateway_state_formatted.json
+```
+**Result:** `JSON is valid` - confirms output is valid JSON.

+## Status: VERIFIED
+
+### Tool Location
+- `/root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark/json_formatter.py`

+### Test Cases Executed
+
+#### Test 1: Valid JSON (test_messy.json)
+**Input:**
+```json
+{"name":"test","values":[1,2,3],"nested":{"a":true,"b":false,"c":null}}
+```
+
+**Output (verified):**

+    "c": null
+  },
+  "values": [

+    2,
+    3
+  ]
+}
+```
+**Result:** PASS (exit code 0)
+
+#### Test 2: Invalid JSON (test_invalid.json)
+**Input:** `{this is not valid JSON - no quotes around keys`
+
+**Output:** `JSON Error: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 2 (char 1)`
+**Result:** PASS (exit code 1, proper error handling)
+
+#### Test 3: Real JSON (github_stats.json)
+**Output:** Sorted, pretty-printed JSON with proper indentation
+**Result:** PASS (exit code 0)
+
+### Features Verified
+1. Reads JSON from file argument
+2. Validates JSON syntax
+3. Pretty-prints with indent=2
+4. Sorts keys alphabetically
+5. Returns exit code 0 on success
+6. Returns exit code 1 on JSON parse error
+7. Reports error messages to stderr

+# JSON Linter Verification Report
+
+## Artifact Created
+**File:** /root/.hermes/wizard-outputs/spark/json_lint.py
+
+## Purpose
+A lightweight JSON linter that validates JSON files and returns structured output with:
+- `valid`: boolean indicating if JSON parses correctly
+- `error`: error message with line/column info for invalid files
+- `type`: the JSON data type (dict, list, str, int, float, bool, null)
+- `keys`: sorted list of top-level keys (for dicts)
+- `length`: number of items (for lists)
+
+## Tests Run
+
+### Test 1: Valid JSON file (sample_valid.json)
+```
+$ python3 json_lint.py sample_valid.json
+{"file": "sample_valid.json", "valid": true, "error": null, "type": "dict", "keys": ["name", "nested", "value"]}
+```
+Exit code: 0
+Result: Successfully parsed dict with 3 keys
+
+### Test 2: Invalid JSON file (sample_invalid.json)
+```
+$ python3 json_lint.py sample_invalid.json
+{"file": "sample_invalid.json", "valid": false, "error": "JSON parse error at line 4, col 23: Invalid control character at...", "type": null, "keys": []}
+```
+Exit code: 1
+Result: Correctly identified invalid JSON with precise error location
+
+### Test 3: Skills inventory (skills_inventory.json)
+```
+$ python3 json_lint.py skills_inventory.json
+{"file": "skills_inventory.json", "valid": true, "error": null, "type": "dict", "keys": ["categories", "generated_at", "profile", "skills", "total_skills"]}
+```
+Exit code: 0
+Result: Successfully parsed large JSON file (726 lines)
+
+### Test 4: Report file (report.json)
+```
+$ python3 json_lint.py report.json
+{"file": "report.json", "valid": true, "error": null, "type": "dict", "keys": ["directory", "generated_at", "snippets", "summary", "total_lines", "total_size_kb", "total_snippets"]}
+```
+Exit code: 0
+Result: Successfully parsed report JSON
+
+## Summary
+All tests passed. The JSON linter correctly:
+1. Validates proper JSON files and outputs structured results
+2. Detects invalid JSON with accurate line/column locations
+3. Exits with code 0 for valid, 1 for invalid
+4. Handles files of various sizes

+# JSON Schema Validator CLI
+
+A simple command-line tool to validate JSON files against JSON schemas.
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python3 json_schema_cli.py <json_file> <schema_file> [--output report.json]
+```
+
+## Arguments
+
+- `json_file`: Path to JSON file to validate
+- `schema_file`: Path to JSON schema file
+- `--output` / `-o`: Optional output file for validation report
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+- `0`: JSON is valid against schema
+- `1`: JSON validation failed or file error
+
+## Example
+
+```bash
+# Validate a JSON file
+python3 json_schema_cli.py data.json schema.json
+
+# Validate and save report
+python3 json_schema_cli.py data.json schema.json -o report.json
+```
+
+## Features
+
+- Type validation (string, number, integer, boolean, array, object, null)
+- Required field validation
+- Nested object property validation
+- Array item validation
+- JSON output with detailed error messages
+
+## Test Files
+
+- `test_schema.json`: Sample JSON schema for testing
+- `valid_test_data.json`: Valid JSON data matching the schema
+- `invalid_test_data.json`: Invalid JSON data (wrong type for age field)
