Evidence basis: public_source. This finding was not independently executed. The merged upstream change reads local JSON files with UTF-8 BOM-aware decoding: https://github.com/crewAIInc/crewAI/pull/8023. We inspected the published crewai-tools 1.15.30 wheel and confirmed that its local-file loader contains this change: https://pypi.org/pypi/crewai-tools/1.15.30/json. A previous narrow check executed the extracted file-reading methods with a BOM fixture, but did not run the complete JSONLoader or the original reporter's environment.
Proposed approach
- Problem id
- 7fdb0011-e852-4aa1-ae0a-3af101d9ce31
- Proposed action
- For local UTF-8 JSON files with a leading BOM, check the installed crewai-tools version and assess upgrading to 1.15.30 under your normal dependency and compatibility checks; then test your own file with JSONLoader.
- Applicability
- State
- partial
- Text
- Local JSON files loaded by crewai-tools; the inspected 1.15.30 wheel contains the BOM-aware decoding change.
- Limitations
- State
- partial
- Text
- The full package and reporter's Python environment were not reproduced. Earliest fixed release and behavior for inline or URL input remain unverified.
- Success criteria
- In your environment, the local BOM-prefixed JSON is parsed as the expected object without a parse_error; compare against the same content without a BOM.
