Add a validate-json CLI command that scans JSON files, registers GTS schemas and instances, and reports validation issues for given json file or folder with *.json files

Also bump workspace crates to 0.12.1 and update anyhow to a patched release to address RUSTSEC-2026-0190.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI adds validate-json for recursive JSON discovery and GTS validation. It reports structured issues and aggregate counts. Workspace crates move to version 0.12.1. A regression test covers invalid gts:// URI bodies.

Changes

JSON validation CLI

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validator contracts and module wiring
gts-cli/src/json_validation.rs, gts-cli/src/lib.rs, gts-cli/src/main.rs, gts-cli/Cargo.toml
Defines public validation result types and exposes the JSON validation module with its dependencies.
Discovery, parsing, and registration
gts-cli/src/json_validation.rs
Discovers JSON files, parses documents and arrays, checks $schema, registers GTS entities, derives registry keys, and counts schemas and instances.
Schema and instance validation
gts-cli/src/json_validation.rs
Validates base and derived schemas in order, then validates registered instances and records source-aware issues.
CLI command integration
gts-cli/src/cli.rs
Adds ValidateJson, resolves the command or global path, runs validation, and prints issues and results.

Workspace release versions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Package version updates
Cargo.toml, gts-cli/Cargo.toml, gts-dylint/Cargo.toml, gts-id/Cargo.toml, gts-macros-cli/Cargo.toml, gts-macros/Cargo.toml, gts-validator/Cargo.toml, gts/Cargo.toml
Updates workspace and crate versions from 0.12.0 to 0.12.1.

GTS URI regression test

Layer / File(s) Summary
Invalid GTS URI coverage
gts/src/ops.rs
Adds coverage for rejecting a gts:// URI whose body does not start with gts..

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d676e

Running validate-json on repositories containing dependency or build directories can scan and report on unrelated JSON files, increasing runtime and producing misleading validation output. Prune these directories before merge.

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Prune excluded directories during traversal.

continue skips only the current directory entry. WalkDir still visits descendants and the validator reads their JSON files. Use filter_entry to stop descent into node_modules, dist, and build.

why do we need to validate base types first? what if we have 3-level derivation?

9 args - we definitely need to refactor GtsEntity::new signature...

Batch validation is useful, but I suggest these changes before merging:

  1. Avoid a second loading pipeline. GtsJsonValidator repeats discovery, parsing, entity construction, and registration orchestration already present in GtsFileReader/GtsStore.
    Suggestion: extend the shared loader with diagnostics and implement batch validation in gts/. Keep the CLI responsible for arguments, output, and exit status. Reuse effective_id() instead of introducing separate registry-key and UUID rules.

  2. Clarify the command’s purpose. validate-json suggests generic JSON validation; the added feature is batch validation of GTS schemas and instances.
    Suggestion: use gts validate --path … or validate-files, with help text describing that scope.

  3. Replace the substring-based filter. read_file() already calls GtsEntity::new(), which detects schemas through a nonempty string $schema and extracts schema/instance IDs. The subsequent is_gts_related() filter searches arbitrary strings for GTS_ID_PREFIX. It respects the compile-time prefix override, but can reject unrelated documents that merely mention the prefix and skip malformed IDs such as gts://gtx.… under the default configuration.
    Suggestion: replace that filter with classification based on schema $id and configured entity/type ID fields. Extend the shared extraction logic to distinguish unrelated documents from malformed GTS entities and return diagnostics: currently, invalid type-ID candidates can be silently discarded. Checking only entity.gts_id.is_some() would retain that problem. Rename validate_json_schemas() to reflect that it only checks the type of $schema.

  4. Propagate failures consistently. Validation errors leave the process successful; registration/traversal errors are discarded; excluded directories are still traversed.
    Suggestion: print the report, then return a nonzero status when ok is false; collect registration/traversal errors into issues; use WalkDir::filter_entry() to prune excluded directories.

  5. Remove duplicate validation loops. All entities are registered before validation, and validate_schema() checks the derivation chain itself. The depth sort already orders three-level derivation correctly.
    Suggestion: validate schemas in one loop and derive the diagnostic stage from their depth. Retain sorting only if desired for report ordering.

  6. Test the command’s actual path. The added regression test exercises GtsOps::add_entity(), which this command bypasses.
    Suggestion: add CLI tests for valid schema/instance sets, malformed IDs, incidental prefix mentions, duplicates, exclusions, and failure exit codes. Include a build/test run with a custom compile-time GTS_ID_PREFIX.
