+# 🚀 Improve Content-Type Detection in API Call Parser
+
+## 📝 Description
+
+This PR enhances the `handleNone` function in `parseData.ts` to intelligently detect and handle different content types when none is explicitly specified. The improvement addresses a long-standing FIXME comment and significantly improves API reliability.
+
+## 🎯 What This Fixes
+
+**Before**: The `handleNone` function would simply return raw data without attempting to determine the appropriate content type, leading to potential parsing issues.
+
+**After**: The function now:
+1. ✅ Checks for explicit `Content-Type` headers (case-insensitive)
+2. ✅ Intelligently delegates to appropriate handlers based on detected content type
+3. ✅ Implements heuristic detection for JSON, URL-encoded, text, and other formats
+4. ✅ Maintains backward compatibility with fallback behavior
+
+## 🔧 Changes Made
+
+### Enhanced Content-Type Detection Logic:
+- **Header Analysis**: Checks `content-type` and `Content-Type` headers
+- **JSON Detection**: Identifies JSON structures using bracket/brace patterns + validation
+- **URL-Encoded Detection**: Recognizes form-encoded data patterns
+- **Text Detection**: Falls back to text handling for string data
+- **Object Handling**: Automatically stringifies objects for JSON processing
+
+### Code Quality Improvements:
+- ✅ Resolves FIXME comment: "try to guess the content type from headers content-type and data"
+- ✅ Maintains existing API compatibility
+- ✅ Comprehensive error handling with graceful fallbacks
+- ✅ Clean, readable implementation with clear logic flow
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+- ✅ Project builds successfully without errors
+- ✅ All existing functionality preserved
+- ✅ CLI tools continue to work as expected
+- ✅ No breaking changes introduced
+
+## 📋 Checklist
+
+- [x] Code follows project style guidelines
+- [x] Self-review completed
+- [x] Functionality tested locally
+- [x] No breaking changes
+- [x] Commit message follows conventional format
+- [x] DCO sign-off included (`git commit -s`)
+- [x] FIXME comment addressed and resolved
+
+## 🎉 Impact
+
+This improvement enhances the robustness of API calls within the SmythOS platform by:
+- **Reducing parsing errors** through intelligent content-type detection
+- **Improving developer experience** with more predictable behavior
+- **Maintaining compatibility** while adding new capabilities
+- **Following best practices** for content-type handling
