Important limits

Other named HTML entities are preserved unchanged. Input stays in this tab and is never sent to analytics. Limit 100,000 characters. No input is executed.

Choosing the next step

Treat these tools as a local scratchpad. Validate the format before transforming it, keep secrets out of shared screenshots and remember that a decoded token is not an authenticated token. Use the smallest input that reproduces the problem.
