For some reason, I find it kinda funny you don't just ask the LLM to extract the values for you. Practically, your solution makes a lot of sense -- way fewer tokens, less likely to make weird one-off errors, can verify the response makes basic sense or re-use the code off-line or with sensitive data...

But if I were watching Star Trek, they would definitely just ask the computer to grab the fields and it would be a done deal!

I'm rarely just using jq once. It's almost always going into a script, often where I only have placeholder data to test it with.

Plus, you know, I actually learn how jq works and will need to ask the Magic Sky Oracle less often, in the future.

What's wrong with the docs? Relatedly, do you actually look up every filter and argument used in your AI-generated sample code in the jq docs?
