XML to JSON Skill

Overview

XML to JSON works by analyzing the XML content provided and converting it to JSON. It uses advanced algorithms to convert the XML content to JSON and returns the JSON representation of the XML.

The tool

Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as XMLtoJSONSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.

Tool call

{
  "name": "XMLtoJSONSkill",
  "arguments": {
    "xml": "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?><root><item>value</item></root>"
  }
}

You do not name the tool yourself; the model picks it. Asking about <?xml version="1.0"?><root><item>value</item></root> in the terms this skill covers is enough for it to reach for XMLtoJSONSkill on its own — naming it explicitly also works, and is the way to force the call.

Connecting

One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vervekit": {
      "url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Per-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.

Arguments

These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.

Argument	Type	Description
`xml`Required	string	The XML content to convert to JSON

What the model gets back

The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

Result

{
  "status": "ok",
  "error": null,
  "data": {
    "note": {
      "children": [
        {
          "to": {
            "content": "Tove"
          }
        },
        {
          "from": {
            "content": "Jani"
          }
        },
        {
          "heading": {
            "content": "Reminder"
          }
        },
        {
          "body": {
            "content": "Don't forget me this weekend!"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Field	Type	Example	Description
`note`	object	`{…}`	Root element converted from XML structure
`note.children`	array[4]		Array of child elements from parsed XML content
`note.children.0.to`	object	`{…}`
`note.children.0.to.content`	string	`Tove`	Recipient field value from XML element

Failure modes

Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.

Status	What it means
`400` / `422`	The arguments did not validate. The message names the offending one.
`401`	The OAuth session is invalid or expired — reconnect the server.
`403`	Blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Never a bad identity.
`404`	This skill is not part of VerveKit. Check the catalog.
`429`	Out of credits, or a brief rate limit. The message tells them apart.

A call costs 2 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.

Use cases

Legacy SOAP Integration: When ingesting legacy SOAP web service responses, modern frontend microservices parse the returned XML body into JSON before processing client requests.
RSS Feed Ingestion: News aggregators translate incoming XML syndication feeds into standard JSON records to index articles directly into document databases.
Supply Chain Invoices: To process electronic data interchange documents, logistics platforms convert supplier XML invoices into JSON payloads for internal billing services.
Webhook Payload Normalization: Convert XML notifications from payment gateways and partner APIs into JSON before passing event payloads to serverless event brokers.

Other ways to use XML to JSON Skill

Set up XML to JSON Skill on VerveKit, or reach the same source a different way. Your VerveKit account and credits work on all of them — one key, one balance.
