linter-docs

Deep linter reference for authoring or debugging a vigiles enforce() rule — plugin tables, AST selectors, type-aware rules, auto-fix, and edge cases for ESLint, Ruff, Pylint, RuboCop, Stylelint, and Clippy. Use when you need the exact rule name or config for a specific linter, not for running a linter. (JVM/Go linters — detekt, ktlint, Checkstyle, golangci-lint — and Cedar have no deep-dive file yet; their reference lives in docs/linter-support.md.)

Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/zernie/vigiles --skill linter-docs
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads linter-docs automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Reference material for the linters vigiles cross-references. Open the file for the linter you're working with when you need exact rule names, AST selectors, or config details to author an enforce() rule (or diagnose why one is reported missing or disabled).

LinterReference
ESLinteslint.md — plugin table, AST selectors, type-aware rules, auto-fix
Ruffruff.md — 800+ reimplemented rules, selection, auto-fix, pyproject config
Pylintpylint.md — plugin table, astroid AST, type inference, custom checkers
RuboCoprubocop.md — gem table, node pattern DSL, auto-correct, custom cops
Stylelintstylelint.md — plugin table, PostCSS AST, custom rules, SCSS
Clippyclippy.md — Rust lint groups and configuration

JVM/Go linters (detekt, ktlint, Checkstyle, golangci-lint) and Cedar are cross-referenced by enforce() but have no deep-dive file here yet — their capabilities, config surfaces, and known limits (e.g. ktlint is format-only, Checkstyle enabled-state is whitelist-only) are documented in docs/linter-support.md.

These are read by the strengthen and edit-spec skills when matching a guidance rule to a real linter rule. This skill is user-invoked (a reference, not an action), so it never fires on its own — open the relevant file directly.

FAQ

What does the linter-docs skill do?

Deep linter reference for authoring or debugging a vigiles enforce() rule — plugin tables, AST selectors, type-aware rules, auto-fix, and edge cases for ESLint, Ruff, Pylint, RuboCop, Stylelint, and Clippy. Use when you need the exact rule name or config for a specific linter, not for running a linter. (JVM/Go linters — detekt, ktlint, Checkstyle, golangci-lint — and Cedar have no deep-dive file yet; their reference lives in docs/linter-support.md.)

How do I install linter-docs?

Run npx skills add https://github.com/zernie/vigiles --skill linter-docs in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/linter-docs/ (personal) or .claude/skills/linter-docs/ (project).

Which AI agents can use linter-docs?

Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.

Is linter-docs safe to install?

No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.

Who maintains linter-docs?

It is published by zernie in zernie/vigiles. It has 2,004 recorded installs.

edit-spec

zernie/vigiles

Edit a vigiles .spec.ts to change a compiled instruction file (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md) — add, modify, or remove a rule, section, command, or file pointer (including a request to add a "key file" — the keyFiles field is deprecated). Use whenever you need to change a CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md that carries a vigiles hash (edit the spec, never the artifact), including adding a new enforce()/check()/guidance() rule.

strengthen

zernie/vigiles

Upgrade a vigiles spec's guidance() rules to enforce() — scan the guidance rules in a CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md spec and find existing linter rules (ESLint, Ruff, Clippy, Pylint, RuboCop, Stylelint) that back them. Use when asked to strengthen, harden, or make vigiles rules enforceable; NOT for general linting or fixing lint errors.

test-harness

zernie/vigiles

Install vigiles and test a Claude Code harness — hooks, skills, agents, settings, CLAUDE.md — by picking the right tier (unit / deterministic / eval) and writing a test that passes. Use to check that a hook fires or blocks, that a skill triggers, that injected context lands; or to observe a run — which tools it called, whether it stayed inside its declared allowed-tools, what files and side effects it produced, how to intercept a call without executing it.

adopt-spec

zernie/vigiles

Adopt a typed .spec.ts for an existing hand-written CLAUDE.md — start from the file you already have, non-destructively

debug-my-harness

zernie/vigiles

Diagnose why an agent harness misbehaved by reading the local flight-recorder ledger (.vigiles/runs.jsonl) — which skills fired or got hijacked, which hooks blocked or wrongly allowed, which subagent tool-contract violations happened, and how a skill's trigger rate moved. Use when asked why a skill stopped firing, why a hook didn't block, why the wrong skill ran, or to debug/investigate what the harness actually did. NOT for writing new rules (use strengthen) or editing the spec (use edit-spec).

deep-research

zernie/vigiles

Use when the user asks to research a topic in depth, map a competitive/market landscape, run a multi-source investigation, or "fan out" parallel research agents — anything where many findings must be gathered and then NOT lost. Enforces durable, detail-preserving research (write full findings to disk; keep a full appendix beside the synthesis).
