toon-format

When working with JSON data in LLM prompts (especially large arrays or tabular data), consider the token-efficient TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) format which reduces tokens by 30-70% while maintaining lossless JSON representation and structural validation. Use for reading/writing .toon files, converting JSON↔TOON, or optimizing structured data for LLM consumption with guardrails like [N] counts and {field} headers.
