4D Project Info

Analyze a 4D project and produce a JSON summary of its structure.

Usage

python3 scripts/project_info.py [path] [--format json|human|terse] [--compact]

• path: Any path inside a 4D project, the project root itself, the Project/ directory, or a direct path to the .4DProject file. Defaults to current directory.
• --format: json for structured output, human for a readable text summary, terse for a token-light text summary. Aliases: text, token, tokens, toon.
• --compact: For json output, return only names and counts instead of full per-file details.

If no project root can be resolved, the script still exits with an error, but it also returns a list of nearby .4DProject files to use explicitly on the next run.

Output

JSON compact mode
