The command "json5" is likely referring to a command-line tool or script that is designed to work with JSON5 files. JSON5 is a relaxed superset of JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) which allows for more human-readable syntax with some additional features.

In this specific command, "${path-to-input_file-json5}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the input JSON5 file you want to process.

Once the correct value is substituted, the command can be executed in a terminal or command prompt. It is expected to consume the JSON5 file specified by the provided path and perform some kind of operation or output the results based on the functionality of the "json5" tool or script being used.
