FAQPage Schema

How do I refresh token estimation and model pricing JSON data for a VS Code extension?▼

To refresh token estimation and model pricing JSON data, run the JSON refresh workflow to update estimators and pricing files, then validate syntax, build the extension, and run tests to ensure changes load correctly in VS Code.

What is JSON validation for token estimators and why is it needed?▼

JSON validation for token estimators ensures updated pricing and estimation files have correct syntax and required fields. It is needed during extension maintenance and model updates to guarantee accurate token usage estimates and cost calculations.
