yajltcl offers the ::yajl::json2dict for conversion of JSON messages into a Tcl native container (which can be used as a dict or array). This is the easiest way to read specific values from within a larger JSON document since you can use normal dict/array operations to navigate the data structure layout.
The yajltcl command format (array_open/array_close/etc) is not really intended to be consumed or manipulated by anything else directly, though it's possible if your needs are simple enough.
