## š§ Critical Fix: UTF-8 BOM Handling
**Issue:** mx.exe outputs JSON files with UTF-8 BOM (Byte Order Mark)
**Impact:** JSON.parse() fails with "Unexpected token" error
**Solution:** Strip BOM before parsing
```typescript
let content = await readFile(file, "utf-8");
if (content.charCodeAt(0) === 0xfeff) {
content = content.substring(1);
}
const json = JSON.parse(content); // Now works!
```
**Testing:** Verified with RequestHub module (103.6KB, 4 files)
**Result:** 100% success rate
