extract_data

Extract data content (e.g. i18n translations) from source code to a JSON file. IMPORTANT: When encountering files with data such as i18n content embedded in code, use this tool directly instead of reading the file content first. This tool will programmatically extract all translations into a structured JSON file, preserving nested objects, arrays, template variables, and formatting. This helps keep translations as configuration and prevents filling up the AI context window with translation content. By default, the source file will be replaced with "MIGRATED TO <target absolute path>" and a warning message after successful extraction, making it easy to track where the data was moved to. This behaviour can be disabled by setting the DISABLE_SOURCE_REPLACEMENT environment variable to 'true'. The warning message can be customized by setting the WARNING_MESSAGE environment variable.
