.http file validator

Check a .http or .rest file against the syntax Karve actually runs. Find malformed requests, unresolved variables, duplicate names, and likely committed secrets without uploading your file.

Drop a .http or .rest file here or browse — or paste below.

Validates automatically — nothing leaves your browser. Formatting only normalizes line endings, so request bodies remain untouched.

Validated output
Validated output will appear here.

Syntax checked

  • GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, and OPTIONS
  • ### request blocks and duplicate names
  • @name declarations and {{name}} references
  • Header syntax and body separation
  • Likely literal secrets in variables and sensitive headers

Environment-aware warnings

An unresolved variable is a warning, not an error: Karve may resolve it from your active local .env environment. File-level @variables take precedence.
