Answer 1

Scenario 1: generate uppercase for matches on Notepad++

You can use a regex like this:

\(.*?\)|(\w+)

Working demo

Then on your Find/Replace dialog you can put \U\1 on Replace with. So, if you go over Find Next you can replace the string to generate the uppercase output.

Scenario 2: concatenate tags on each line

You can use this regex:

(.+?)\[
