thank you @Tom!

One follow-up @Tom If I change to use

matches

instead of

contains

, how do I escape a

.

character? For example, in something like this:

{
  "matchesJsonPath": {
    "expression": "$.messages[?(@.role == 'user')].content",
    "matches": "Narrate the fight between a super hero and a super villain."
  }
}

How would I escape the period at the end? If I just use

\

I get errors on startup:

"[truncated 3202 chars]; line: 34, column: 83]

Yet If I use

\\

to escape it, my matcher no longer works because one of the

\

characters is still there in the matcher:

$.messages[?(@.role == 'user')].content [matches] Narrate  | Narrate the fight between a super hero and a super  <<<<< Body does not match
