What is Lintrule?

Lintrule is an innovative command-line tool that leverages large language models to revolutionize code review processes. The tool enables developers to enforce coding policies that traditional linters cannot detect, identify potential bugs that might slip through conventional testing, and provide comprehensive code reviews without consuming team resources.

Operating through git diffs, Lintrule allows users to write rules in plain language and runs parallel checks on code changes. The tool supports multiple programming languages and can be easily integrated into existing development workflows through its command-line interface, making it particularly valuable for teams of all sizes seeking to enhance their code quality assurance processes.

Features

Plain Language Rules: Write code review rules in simple markdown format
Git Diff Integration: Reviews only changed code by default
Parallel Processing: Checks multiple files simultaneously for faster results
Cross-Language Support: Works with any programming language
GitHub Action Integration: Smart detection of PR changes and commits

Use Cases

Enforcing SOC2 compliance in code
Detecting potential bugs before deployment
Maintaining coding standards across teams
Reviewing SQL migrations for performance issues
Automating pull request reviews

FAQs

Does Lintrule run on diffs?

Yes, by default, Lintrule runs only on changes from git diff HEAD^. In GitHub Actions, it uses environment variables to determine the diff for PRs.
Does it have false positives?

Yes, like a person, more general instructions increase the likelihood of false positives. However, false positives tend to be consistent and can be fixed by being more specific in rule definitions.
Is it slow?

No, Lintrule runs rules in parallel, completing checks in a few seconds regardless of the number of rules or files.
