Use XMP for standards-oriented metadata workflows and JSON when you want structured photoscli metadata for scripts or audits.
The XMP includes photoscli archive metadata such as asset ID, original filename, exported filename, album, manifest path, media type, dimensions, favorite state, hidden state, cloud state, export mode, version, exported time, size, creation date, modification date, duration, adjustment state, media subtypes, source type, playback style, burst data, GPS coordinates, adjustment info, structured asset resources, standard XMP date fields, EXIF GPS fields, favorite rating, and album/folder keywords when PhotoKit exposes them.
