CSV Dialect Dscription Format is a JSON-based format for describing the particular rules for a variety of delimited files, such as CSV or tab delimited. It does not describe the format of the data fields within a record of the file; this may be done with JSON Table Schema or CSV Schema.
The original source of the specification, dataprotocols.org is now now Data Package at datapackage.org from Frictionless Data. Their specifications are also available on their GitHub.
