Golden Configuration parsing currently treats JSON-formatted content as plain text, so start and end line markers break the JSON structure and prevent it from being recognized as valid JSON. As a result, parent and dependency options available for other configuration patterns cannot be applied to JSON blocks, and complex scenarios involving multiple JSON fragments or variables produce a flattened table instead of a single reconstructed JSON object, forcing instance-based checks where a single key/value check would suffice. This enhancement would extend the parsing engine to recognize and preserve JSON formatting, allowing parent and dependency options to apply to JSON patterns, and would add the ability to reconstruct or reassemble parsed JSON fragments into a single cohesive structure when building the golden configuration. Supporting native JSON parsing would let customers isolate and validate specific configuration segments, such as edge-specific portions separate from profile-level configuration, while relying on straightforward key/value based checks rather than complex instance-based workarounds.
