where is this supposed specification for JSON?

I can make whatever I want in a [{},{},{}] and it be valid JSON. If it's the first time you've used my thing, you'll have to somehow look up how the JSON is structured. Whether that's from howtousething.com, man thing, or thing --help, you'll still need to find out what thing does. it doesn't matter if it's your thing or my thing, but some how, thing needs to be able to tell people what to do. there is no universal thing that thing outputs. otherwise, nobody would need yours or my thing, but someone else's thing already does it.
