# Package JSON Linter
Lint package.json files for missing fields, dependency issues, security risks, and best practices violations.
## Commands
All commands use the bundled Python script at `scripts/package_json_linter.py`.
### 1. Lint a package.json file
```bash
python3 scripts/package_json_linter.py lint <file-or-directory> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Runs all lint rules against one or more package.json files. If given a directory, scans for `package.json` files recursively (excluding `node_modules`).
**Flags:**
- `--strict` — exit code 1 on any warning (not just errors)
- `--format` — output format: `text` (default), `json`, `markdown`
### 2. Audit for security issues
```bash
python3 scripts/package_json_linter.py security <file-or-directory> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Checks for supply chain risks: `postinstall`/`preinstall`/`install` scripts, and scripts containing `curl`, `wget`, `eval`, or piping to shell.
### 3. Analyze scripts section
```bash
python3 scripts/package_json_linter.py scripts <file-or-directory> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Analyzes the `scripts` section for missing common scripts (`test`, `start`, `build`), placeholder test scripts, dependency issues, and deprecated packages.
### 4. Validate required fields and structure
```bash
python3 scripts/package_json_linter.py validate <file-or-directory> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Validates required fields (`name`, `version`, `description`), semver format, npm naming rules, dependency issues, and best practice fields.
## Lint Rules (22 rules)
### Required Fields (5 rules)
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `missing-name` | error | No `name` field |
| `missing-version` | error | No `version` field |
| `invalid-name` | error | Name doesn't match npm naming rules |
| `invalid-version` | error | Version not valid semver |
| `missing-description` | warning | No `description` field |
### Dependencies (6 rules)
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `wildcard-dependency` | error | Version is `*`, empty, or `latest` |
| `git-dependency` | warning | Points to git URL (fragile) |
| `file-dependency` | warning | Uses `file:` protocol |
| `pinned-dependency` | info | All deps pinned to exact versions |
| `duplicate-dependency` | warning | Same package in deps and devDeps |
| `deprecated-package` | warning | Known deprecated package (~20 tracked) |
### Security (4 rules)
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `postinstall-script` | warning | Supply chain risk |
| `preinstall-script` | warning | Supply chain risk |
| `install-script` | warning | Supply chain risk |
| `suspicious-script` | warning | Contains curl/wget/eval/pipe-to-shell |
### Best Practices (7 rules)
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `missing-license` | warning | No `license` field |
| `missing-repository` | info | No `repository` field |
| `missing-engines` | info | No `engines` field |
| `missing-keywords` | info | No `keywords` field |
| `missing-main` | info | No `main` or `exports` field |
| `missing-scripts` | info | No `scripts` section |
| `non-https-url` | warning | URLs not using HTTPS |
## Exit Codes
- `0` — no errors found
- `1` — errors found (or warnings in `--strict` mode)
## Output Formats
- `text` — human-readable, one issue per line (default)
- `json` — structured JSON with summary counts
- `markdown` — table format for reports and PRs

# Nginx Config Linter
Validate and audit nginx configuration files for syntax, security, and performance issues.
## Commands
### Lint a config file
```bash
python3 scripts/nginx-config-linter.py lint /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
```
### Security audit
```bash
python3 scripts/nginx-config-linter.py security /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
```
### Performance check
```bash
python3 scripts/nginx-config-linter.py performance /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
```
### Full audit (lint + security + performance)
```bash
python3 scripts/nginx-config-linter.py audit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
```
### Scan directory of configs
```bash
python3 scripts/nginx-config-linter.py audit /etc/nginx/ --recursive
```
## Options
- `--format text|json|markdown` — Output format (default: text)
- `--severity error|warning|info` — Minimum severity to report (default: info)
- `--recursive` — Scan directories recursively for .conf files
- `--strict` — Exit code 1 on any warning or error (CI mode)
## What It Checks
### Syntax (12 rules)
- Unmatched braces, missing semicolons
- Invalid directives in wrong context
- Duplicate server_name, duplicate location
- Empty blocks, unreachable locations
- Invalid listen directives
- Conflicting try_files
### Security (15 rules)
- Missing security headers (X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, CSP, etc.)
- Server tokens exposed (server_tokens on)
- Weak SSL/TLS (SSLv3, TLS 1.0/1.1, weak ciphers)
- Missing HSTS header
- Directory listing enabled (autoindex on)
- Missing rate limiting
- Permissive CORS (*) with credentials
- Default server block missing
- Root inside location block
### Performance (10 rules)
- Gzip not enabled or poorly configured
- Missing keepalive settings
- Buffer sizes too small/large
- Missing proxy cache settings
- No worker_connections tuning
- Missing client_max_body_size
- Large timeout values
- Missing access_log off for static assets
## Exit Codes
- 0: No errors or warnings
- 1: Errors or warnings found (or --strict with any findings)
- 2: File not found or parse error

# makefile-linter
A pure-Python 3 (stdlib only) Makefile linter. Detects common issues including tab/space errors, missing `.PHONY` declarations, unused/undefined variables, hardcoded paths, shell portability problems, and more.
## Commands
### `lint FILE`
Lint a Makefile and report issues.
```bash
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint Makefile
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint /path/to/Makefile
echo -e "all:\n\techo hello" | python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint /dev/stdin
```
### `targets FILE`
List all targets with line numbers, phony status, prerequisites, and inline comment descriptions.
```bash
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py targets Makefile
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py targets Makefile --format json
```
### `vars FILE`
List all variable definitions with line numbers and values.
```bash
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py vars Makefile
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py vars Makefile --format markdown
```
### `audit FILE`
Full audit combining lint results, targets list, and variables summary.
```bash
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py audit Makefile
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py audit Makefile --format json
```
## Options
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--format text\|json\|markdown` | Output format (default: `text`) |
| `--strict` | Exit code 1 on any reported issue |
| `--ignore RULE` | Ignore a specific rule (repeatable) |
| `--min-severity error\|warning\|info` | Minimum severity to report (default: `info`) |
## Lint Rules
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|------|----------|-------------|
| `spaces-not-tabs` | error | Recipe lines must use tabs, not spaces |
| `duplicate-targets` | error | Same target defined more than once |
| `missing-phony` | warning | Common phony target not in `.PHONY` |
| `unused-variables` | warning | Variable defined but never referenced |
| `undefined-variables` | warning | Variable referenced but never defined |
| `hardcoded-paths` | warning | Absolute paths in recipes |
| `trailing-whitespace` | warning | Lines ending with spaces or tabs |
| `shell-portability` | warning | Bash-specific syntax without `SHELL := /bin/bash` |
| `recursive-make` | info | `$(MAKE) -C` or `make -C` detected |
| `missing-default-target` | info | No `all` target defined |
| `long-lines` | info | Lines over 120 characters |
| `missing-clean` | info | No `clean` target defined |
## Examples
```bash
# Report only errors and warnings
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint Makefile --min-severity warning
# JSON output for CI integration
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint Makefile --format json
# Fail CI on any issue
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint Makefile --strict
# Ignore specific rules
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint Makefile --ignore recursive-make --ignore missing-clean
# Full audit in Markdown (for PR comments)
python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py audit Makefile --format markdown
# Pipe from stdin
cat Makefile | python3 scripts/makefile-linter.py lint /dev/stdin
```

- Detects bash-specific syntax without `SHELL := /bin/bash`
- Reports recursive make usage (`$(MAKE) -C`)
- Checks for missing `all` and `clean` targets
- Flags duplicate target definitions
- Reports long lines and trailing whitespace
- `targets` command lists all targets with descriptions from comments
- `vars` command lists all variable definitions
- `audit` command combines lint + targets + vars in one pass
- Output in text, JSON, or Markdown formats
- `--strict` flag for CI/CD exit-code enforcement
- `--ignore` flag to suppress specific rules
- `--min-severity` filter for error/warning/info thresholds

# JSONPath Query Tool
Query JSON data using JSONPath expressions with recursive descent, wildcards, filters, and slicing.
## Query
```bash
# From file
python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.store.book[0].title' -f data.json
# From stdin
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.store.book[*].author'
# Recursive descent (find all 'name' fields at any depth)
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$..name'
# Array slicing
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.items[0:5]'
# Filter (price < 10)
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.store.book[?(@.price < 10)]'
# Wildcard
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.store.*'
# Count matches
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.users[*]' --count
# First match only
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.items[*].id' --first
# Exit 1 if no matches (CI-friendly)
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.missing' --exit-empty
```
## List Paths
```bash
# Show all available paths in JSON data
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py paths
# Limit depth
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py paths --depth 3
```
## Extract Multiple Values
```bash
# Named extractions
cat data.json | python3 scripts/jsonpath.py extract 'name=$.user.name' 'emails=$.user.emails[*]'
```
## Validate Expression
```bash
python3 scripts/jsonpath.py validate '$.store.book[?(@.price > 10)]'
```
## Output Formats
```bash
python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.items[*]' -f data.json --format json # default
python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.items[*].id' -f data.json --format lines # one per line
python3 scripts/jsonpath.py query '$.items[*]' -f data.json --format csv # CSV for objects
```
## JSONPath Syntax
| Expression | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| `$` | Root object |
| `.key` | Child key |
| `[0]` | Array index |
| `[0:5]` | Array slice (start:end) |
| `[0:10:2]` | Array slice with step |
| `[*]` | All elements |
| `..key` | Recursive descent |
| `[?(@.price<10)]` | Filter expression |
| `['key']` | Bracket notation |
| `[0,1,2]` | Union (multiple indices) |

# jsonpath-query — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $49
**Created:** 2026-04-06
## Features
- 4 commands: query, paths, validate, extract
- Full JSONPath syntax: recursive descent, wildcards, slicing, filters, unions
- Filter expressions with comparison operators (==, !=, <, >, <=, >=)
- Path discovery for unknown JSON structures
- Named multi-value extraction
- 4 output formats (json, text, lines, csv)
- CI-friendly: --exit-empty, --count, --first
- Pure Python stdlib, no dependencies
## Next Steps
- Package to dist/ for publishing
- Publish after April 10

## Generate
```bash
# HTTPS redirect + security headers + compression
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate --rewrites http-to-https --security strict --compression
# Full production setup
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate \
--rewrites http-to-https www-to-non-www \
--security strict \
--caching standard \
--compression \
--protect directory-listing dotfiles sensitive-files \
--error-pages 404 500 \
-o .htaccess
# WordPress hardening
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate --protect wp-config xmlrpc dotfiles --security strict
# CORS for specific domain
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate --cors specific --domain example.com
# Custom redirects
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate --redirects "/old-page -> /new-page" "/blog -> https://blog.example.com"
# Hotlinking protection
python3 scripts/htaccess.py generate --protect hotlinking --domain example.com
```
## Lint
```bash
# Basic lint
python3 scripts/htaccess.py lint .htaccess
# Strict mode (exit 1 on errors, CI-friendly)
python3 scripts/htaccess.py lint .htaccess --strict
# Filter by severity
python3 scripts/htaccess.py lint .htaccess --severity error warning
# JSON output
python3 scripts/htaccess.py lint .htaccess -f json
```
### Lint Checks (10 rules)
- `rewrite-no-engine` — RewriteRule without RewriteEngine On
- `duplicate-rewrite-engine` — Multiple RewriteEngine On
- `redirect-no-slash` — Redirect path not starting with /
- `missing-l-flag` — RewriteRule without [L] flag
- `mixed-redirect-rewrite` — Mixing Redirect and RewriteRule
- `unclosed-ifmodule` — Unclosed IfModule blocks
- `unclosed-files` — Unclosed Files/FilesMatch blocks
- `wildcard-cors` — Wildcard origin with credentials
- `no-hsts` — HTTPS without HSTS header
- `options-minus-indexes` — Directory listing not disabled
## Explain
```bash
# Human-readable explanation of each directive
python3 scripts/htaccess.py explain .htaccess
```
## List Presets
```bash
python3 scripts/htaccess.py presets
python3 scripts/htaccess.py presets -f json
```
## Available Presets

# GitLab CI Linter
Lint GitLab CI/CD pipeline files for syntax errors, security issues, deprecated patterns, and best practices violations.
## Commands
All commands use the bundled Python script at `scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py`.
### 1. Lint a pipeline file
```bash
python3 scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py lint <file-or-directory> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Runs all lint rules against one or more `.gitlab-ci.yml` files. If given a directory, scans for `*.yml` and `*.yaml` files recursively.
**Flags:**
- `--strict` -- exit code 1 on any warning (not just errors)
- `--format` -- output format: `text` (default), `json`, `markdown`
### 2. Audit for security issues
```bash
python3 scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py security <file> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Focused security audit: hardcoded secrets, unprotected variables, privileged runners, insecure Docker image tags, security jobs with `allow_failure`.
### 3. Inspect stages
```bash
python3 scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py stages <file> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Show defined stages and which jobs map to each stage. Flags undefined or unused stages.
### 4. Validate pipeline structure
```bash
python3 scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py validate <file> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Structural validation only: required keys, stage definitions, job keywords, dependency graph (circular `needs:`, missing refs).
## Lint Rules (24 total)
### Syntax & Structure (8 rules)
1. **missing-stages** -- No `stages:` definition
2. **undefined-stage** -- Job uses stage not in `stages:` list
3. **empty-job** -- Job has no `script:` section
4. **invalid-job-name** -- Job name starts with `.` but is not used as a template
5. **missing-script** -- Job without `script:`, `before_script:`, or `trigger:`
6. **circular-needs** -- Circular dependency in `needs:` graph
7. **duplicate-job** -- Duplicate job names (YAML parser collapses them)
8. **invalid-keyword** -- Unknown top-level or job-level keyword
### Security (6 rules)
9. **hardcoded-secret** -- Passwords, tokens, keys in plain text
10. **unprotected-variable** -- Sensitive-looking variable not using `$CI_*` references
11. **allow-failure-security** -- Security-related job with `allow_failure: true`
12. **privileged-runner** -- `tags:` requesting privileged runners
13. **unmasked-variable** -- Variable looks sensitive but not described as masked
14. **insecure-image** -- Using `:latest` tag for Docker images
### Best Practices (10 rules)
15. **missing-retry** -- No `retry:` on deploy/test jobs
16. **missing-timeout** -- No `timeout:` specified
17. **no-cache-key** -- `cache:` without explicit `key:`
18. **broad-artifacts** -- Overly broad `artifacts: paths:` patterns
19. **missing-rules** -- Job without `rules:` or `only:`/`except:`
20. **deprecated-only-except** -- Using `only:`/`except:` instead of `rules:`
21. **long-script** -- `script:` block exceeds 30 lines
22. **missing-interruptible** -- Long-running job without `interruptible:`
23. **no-coverage-regex** -- Test job without `coverage:` regex
24. **missing-when** -- No `when:` in `rules:` entries
## Output Formats
### Text (default)
```
.gitlab-ci.yml:12 error [missing-script] Job 'deploy' has no script:, before_script:, or trigger:
.gitlab-ci.yml:25 warning [missing-timeout] Job 'test' has no timeout: specified
.gitlab-ci.yml:31 info [deprecated-only-except] Job 'build' uses only:/except: instead of rules:
3 issues (1 error, 2 warnings)
```
### JSON
```json
{
"file": ".gitlab-ci.yml",
"issues": [...],
"summary": {"errors": 1, "warnings": 2, "info": 0}
}
```
### Markdown
Summary table with severity, rule, location, and message.
## CI Integration
```yaml
# .gitlab-ci.yml
lint-pipeline:
stage: test
script:
- python3 scripts/gitlab_ci_linter.py lint .gitlab-ci.yml --strict
```
Exit codes: 0 = clean, 1 = errors found (or warnings in `--strict` mode).

--- name: github-actions-linter description: Lint and validate GitHub Actions workflow YAML files for common mistakes, security issues, deprecated actions, and best practices. Use when asked to lint, validate, audit, or check GitHub Actions workflows, CI/CD pipelines on GitHub, or .github/workflows/*.yml files. Triggers on "lint actions", "check workflow", "validate CI", "audit GitHub Actions", "workflow issues", "actions security". --- # GitHub Actions Linter Lint GitHub Actions workflow files for syntax errors, security issues, deprecated actions, and best practices violations. ## Commands All commands use the bundled Python script at `scripts/gha_linter.py`. ### 1. Lint a workflow file ```bash python3 scripts/gha_linter.py lint <file-or-directory> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown] ``` Runs all lint rules against one or more workflow files. If given a directory, scans for `*.yml` and `*.yaml` files recursively. **Flags:** - `--strict` — exit code 1 on any warning (not just errors) - `--format` — output format: `text` (default), `json`, `markdown` ### 2. Audit for security issues ```bash python3 scripts/gha_linter.py security <file> [--format text|json|markdown] ``` Focused security audit: shell injection via `{}` in `run:`, hardcoded secrets, overly permissive `permissions`, untrusted event contexts in expressions. ### 3. Check for deprecated actions ```bash python3 scripts/gha_linter.py deprecated <file> [--format text|json|markdown] ``` Detect outdated action versions (e.g., `actions/checkout@v2`, `actions/setup-node@v3` when v4 exists) and suggest upgrades. ### 4. Validate workflow structure ```bash python3 scripts/gha_linter.py validate <file> [--format text|json|markdown] ``` Structural validation only: required keys (`on`, `jobs`), valid trigger events, valid `runs-on` labels, job dependency graph (circular deps, missing refs). ## Lint Rules (28 total) ### Syntax & Structure (8 rules) 1. **missing-on** — Workflow missing `on` trigger 2. **missing-jobs** — Workflow missing `jobs` section 3. **empty-jobs** — Jobs section is empty 4. **missing-runs-on** — Job missing `runs-on` 5. **missing-steps** — Job missing `steps` 6. **empty-steps** — Steps list is empty 7. **invalid-trigger** — Unknown trigger event name 8. **circular-deps** — Circular job dependency via `needs` ### Security (8 rules) 9. **shell-injection** — `{}` expression in `run:` (potential injection) 10. **hardcoded-secret** — Hardcoded password/token/key patterns in workflow 11. **permissive-permissions** — `permissions: write-all` or no permissions block 12. **untrusted-context** — Dangerous contexts in expressions (`github.event.issue.title`, `github.event.pull_request.body`, etc.) 13. **pull-request-target** — `pull_request_target` with checkout of PR head (known attack vector) 14. **third-party-action** — Non-verified third party action without pinned SHA 15. **env-in-run** — Secret used directly in `run:` instead of via `env:` 16. **excessive-permissions** — Job requests more permissions than needed ### Deprecated & Outdated (4 rules) 17. **deprecated-action** — Action version is outdated (v1/v2 when v4 exists) 18. **deprecated-runner** — Using deprecated runner labels (ubuntu-18.04, macos-10.15) 19. **set-output-deprecated** — Using deprecated `::set-output::` command 20. **save-state-deprecated** — Using deprecated `::save-state::` command ### Best Practices (8 rules) 21. **missing-timeout** — Job without `timeout-minutes` (default 6h is dangerous) 22. **missing-name** — Step without `name` (harder to debug) 23. **latest-tag** — Action pinned to `@main` or `@master` (unstable) 24. **no-concurrency** — Workflow without `concurrency` (can waste resources) 25. **hardcoded-runner** — Hardcoded runner version instead of `-latest` 26. **long-run-command** — `run:` block exceeds 50 lines (should be a script) 27. **duplicate-step-id** — Duplicate `id` in steps within same job 28. **missing-if-continue** — `continue-on-error: true` without explanation comment ## Output Formats ### Text (default) ``` workflow.yml:12:3 error [shell-injection] Expression { github.event.issue.title} in run: is vulnerable to injection workflow.yml:25:5 warning [missing-timeout] Job 'build' has no timeout-minutes (default: 360 min) workflow.yml:31:7 warning [missing-name] Step at index 2 has no name 3 issues (1 error, 2 warnings) ``` ### JSON ```json { "file": "workflow.yml", "issues": [...], "summary": {"errors": 1, "warnings": 2, "info": 0} } ``` ### Markdown Summary table with severity, rule, location, and message. ## CI Integration ```yaml # .github/workflows/lint-actions.yml name: Lint Workflows on: [push, pull_request] jobs: lint: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 - run: python3 scripts/gha_linter.py lint .github/workflows/ --strict ``` Exit codes: 0 = clean, 1 = errors found (or warnings in `--strict` mode).

name: editorconfig-linter
description: Validate .editorconfig syntax and check source files for EditorConfig compliance.
version: 1.0.0

# EditorConfig Linter
Validate .editorconfig files and check source files for compliance.
## Commands
### Validate .editorconfig syntax
```bash
python3 scripts/editorconfig-linter.py validate .editorconfig
```
### Check files against .editorconfig rules
```bash
python3 scripts/editorconfig-linter.py check src/
python3 scripts/editorconfig-linter.py check src/ --editorconfig .editorconfig
```
### Show effective config for a file
```bash
python3 scripts/editorconfig-linter.py show src/main.py
```
### Fix violations automatically
```bash
python3 scripts/editorconfig-linter.py fix src/
```
## Options
- `--editorconfig PATH` — Path to .editorconfig (default: auto-discover)
- `--format text|json|markdown` — Output format (default: text)
- `--strict` — Exit 1 on any violation (CI mode)
- `--exclude PATTERN` — Glob pattern to exclude (repeatable)
- `--max-files N` — Max files to check (default: 1000)
## What It Checks
### .editorconfig Syntax
- Invalid property names
- Invalid property values (indent_style must be tab/space, etc.)
- Duplicate sections
- Unreachable sections (shadowed by earlier glob)
- Missing root = true
- Invalid glob patterns
### File Compliance (9 rules)
- `indent_style` — tabs vs spaces
- `indent_size` — number of spaces per indent
- `end_of_line` — lf, crlf, cr
- `charset` — utf-8, utf-8-bom, latin1, utf-16be, utf-16le
- `trim_trailing_whitespace` — trailing whitespace check
- `insert_final_newline` — file ends with newline
- `max_line_length` — line length limit
- `tab_width` — tab display width
- Mixed indentation detection
## Exit Codes
- 0: No violations
- 1: Violations found (or --strict)
- 2: Invalid arguments or .editorconfig errors
FILE:STATUS.md
# editorconfig-linter — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $49
**Created:** 2026-04-08
## Features
- Validate .editorconfig syntax (property names, values, duplicates, missing root)
- Check files against 9 EditorConfig rules (indent_style, indent_size, end_of_line, charset, trim_trailing_whitespace, insert_final_newline, max_line_length, tab_width, mixed indentation)
- Auto-fix mode (trailing whitespace, final newline, line endings, BOM)
- Show effective config for any file
- Auto-discover .editorconfig (searches parent dirs)
- Smart file discovery (50+ extensions, auto-excludes node_modules, .git, etc.)
- 3 output formats: text, JSON, markdown
- CI-friendly --strict mode
- Pure Python stdlib

description: Lint, validate, and audit .dockerignore files for syntax issues, security risks, missing patterns, and optimization opportunities. Use when asked to lint, validate, audit, or check .dockerignore files, optimize Docker build context, reduce Docker image size, or review what files are included in Docker builds. Triggers on "lint dockerignore", "check .dockerignore", "docker context", "docker build size", "audit dockerignore".

# Dockerignore Linter
Lint .dockerignore files for syntax issues, security risks, missing essential patterns, and optimization opportunities.
## Commands
All commands use the bundled Python script at `scripts/dockerignore_linter.py`.
### 1. Lint a .dockerignore file
```bash
python3 scripts/dockerignore_linter.py lint <file> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Run all validation rules.
### 2. Audit for security-sensitive files
```bash
python3 scripts/dockerignore_linter.py security <file> [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Check if secrets, credentials, and sensitive files are properly excluded.
### 3. Suggest missing patterns
```bash
python3 scripts/dockerignore_linter.py suggest [--project-type node|python|go|rust|java|ruby|generic] [--format text|json]
```
Generate recommended .dockerignore patterns for a project type.
### 4. Analyze Docker build context
```bash
python3 scripts/dockerignore_linter.py context <directory> [--dockerignore <file>] [--format text|json]
```
Show which files would be included in the Docker build context, with size breakdown.
## Lint Rules (18 total)
### Syntax (4 rules)
1. **empty-file** — .dockerignore is empty
2. **invalid-pattern** — Malformed glob pattern
3. **duplicate-pattern** — Same pattern appears twice
4. **negation-conflict** — Negation `!` overrides a previous exclusion (likely unintended)
### Security (6 rules)
5. **missing-env** — `.env` not excluded (may contain secrets)
6. **missing-secrets** — Common secret files not excluded (*.pem, *.key, id_rsa, etc.)
7. **missing-git** — `.git` directory not excluded (exposes history + credentials)
8. **missing-credentials** — Credential files not excluded (aws/credentials, .npmrc with tokens, etc.)
9. **missing-docker** — Docker-related files not excluded (docker-compose*.yml, Dockerfile*)
10. **missing-ide** — IDE config not excluded (.vscode, .idea, *.swp)
### Optimization (4 rules)
11. **missing-deps** — Dependency directories not excluded (node_modules, __pycache__, vendor, target)
12. **missing-build** — Build output not excluded (dist, build, *.o, *.pyc)
13. **missing-logs** — Log files not excluded (*.log, logs/)
14. **missing-test** — Test data/coverage not excluded (coverage, .nyc_output, htmlcov)
### Best Practices (4 rules)
15. **too-broad** — Pattern is overly broad (e.g., `*` without specific negations)
16. **commented-pattern** — Inline comment after pattern (not supported, treated as literal)
17. **trailing-space** — Pattern has trailing whitespace
18. **readme-excluded** — README/docs excluded (usually should be kept for reference)
## Output Formats
Text, JSON, Markdown — same structure as other linters.
## CI Integration
```yaml
- name: Lint Dockerignore
run: python3 scripts/dockerignore_linter.py lint .dockerignore --strict
```
Exit codes: 0 = clean, 1 = issues found.
FILE:STATUS.md
# Dockerignore Linter — Status
**Status:** Built, validated, tested. Ready for publishing.
**Version:** 1.0.0

## Next Steps
- [x] Build core linter (18 rules: 4 syntax, 6 security, 4 optimization, 4 best practices)
- [x] Project template suggestions (6 languages + generic)
- [x] Build context analyzer
- [x] Test with good and bad .dockerignore files
- [x] Verify all output formats and commands
- [ ] Publish to ClawHub (after April 11 — GitHub account age)

# docker-compose-linter
A pure Python 3 (stdlib only) linter for docker-compose.yml files.
## Commands
```
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py <command> [options] FILE
```
| Command | Description |
|------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| `lint` | Lint a docker-compose.yml for issues |
| `services` | List all services with their images/builds |
| `ports` | List all port mappings, detect conflicts |
| `audit` | Full audit (lint + services + ports summary) |
## Options
| Option | Description |
|-------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| `--format text\|json\|markdown` | Output format (default: text) |
| `--strict` | Exit 1 on any issue (not just errors) |
| `--ignore RULE` | Ignore a specific rule (repeatable) |
| `--min-severity error\|warning\|info` | Minimum severity to report (default: info) |
## Lint Rules
| Rule | Severity | Description |
|-----------------------|----------|----------------------------------------------------------|
| `no-version` | info | Missing or outdated `version:` key |
| `no-healthcheck` | warning | Service without healthcheck defined |
| `no-restart-policy` | warning | Service without restart policy |
| `privileged-mode` | error | Service running in privileged mode |
| `port-conflict` | error | Multiple services mapping to same host port |
| `host-network` | warning | Using network_mode: host (security risk) |
| `latest-tag` | warning | Image using :latest tag or no tag |
| `no-resource-limits` | info | No memory/CPU limits (deploy.resources) |
| `hardcoded-env` | warning | Secrets/passwords directly in environment variables |
| `root-user` | warning | No user: specified (runs as root by default) |
| `missing-depends-on` | info | Service uses links but no depends_on |
| `bind-mount-relative` | info | Relative bind mount paths |
| `no-logging` | info | No logging configuration |
| `duplicate-service` | error | Duplicate service names |
## Examples
```bash
# Lint with default text output
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py lint docker-compose.yml
# Only show errors and warnings
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py --min-severity warning lint docker-compose.yml
# JSON output for CI pipelines
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py --format json lint docker-compose.yml
# Full audit in markdown
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py --format markdown audit docker-compose.yml
# Ignore specific rules
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py --ignore root-user --ignore no-logging lint docker-compose.yml
# Strict mode: exit 1 on any issue
python3 scripts/docker-compose-linter.py --strict lint docker-compose.yml
```
## Requirements
- Python 3.7+
- No external dependencies (pure stdlib)
FILE:STATUS.md
# docker-compose-linter — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $49
**Created:** 2026-04-09
## Features
- Pure Python 3, no external dependencies (no PyYAML required)
- Custom indentation-based YAML parser handles all docker-compose constructs
- 14 lint rules covering security, best practices, and operational concerns
- Four commands: `lint`, `services`, `ports`, `audit`
- Three output formats: `text` (with color), `json`, `markdown`
- `--strict` mode for CI pipeline integration
- `--ignore` flag to suppress specific rules
- `--min-severity` filter to focus on critical issues
- Port conflict detection across all services
- Hardcoded secret detection (PASSWORD, SECRET, KEY, TOKEN patterns)
- Privileged mode and host-network security warnings
- Resource limits and healthcheck coverage checks

description: Validate, explain, lint, and calculate next run times for cron expressions. Use when asked to check cron syntax, explain a crontab entry, find next scheduled runs, or lint cron expressions for common mistakes. Triggers on "crontab", "cron expression", "cron schedule", "cron syntax", "cron explain", "cron next run", "*/5 * * * *".
---
# Crontab Validator & Explainer
Validate cron syntax, get human-readable explanations, calculate next run times, and lint for common mistakes.
## Validate
```bash
# Single expression
python3 scripts/cron_check.py validate "*/15 * * * *"
# Multiple expressions with lint
python3 scripts/cron_check.py validate --lint "0 2 * * *" "* * * * *" "0 0 31 2 *"
```
## Explain in Detail
```bash
python3 scripts/cron_check.py explain "30 4 1,15 * 1-5"
```
## Next Run Times
```bash
# Next 5 runs (default)
python3 scripts/cron_check.py next "0 9 * * 1-5"
# Next 10 runs
python3 scripts/cron_check.py next "0 */6 * * *" --count 10
# From specific time
python3 scripts/cron_check.py next "0 9 * * *" --from-time 2026-01-01T00:00:00
```
## Lint
```bash
# Check for common mistakes
python3 scripts/cron_check.py lint "* * * * *" "0 0 31 2 *" "0 0 29 2 *"
# Strict mode (exit 1 on warnings)
python3 scripts/cron_check.py lint --strict "0 0 31 4 *"
```
## Output Formats
```bash
python3 scripts/cron_check.py -f json explain "0 9 * * 1-5"
python3 scripts/cron_check.py -f markdown validate --lint "*/5 * * * *"
```
## Supported Syntax
| Feature | Example | Description |
|---------|---------|-------------|
| Wildcard | `*` | Every value |
| Specific | `5` | Exact value |
| Range | `1-5` | Values 1 through 5 |
| List | `1,3,5` | Values 1, 3, and 5 |
| Step | `*/15` | Every 15th value |
| Range+Step | `1-30/2` | Odd values 1-30 |
| Names | `mon-fri` | Day/month names |
| Shortcuts | `@daily` | Predefined schedules |
## Shortcuts
| Shortcut | Equivalent | Meaning |
|----------|-----------|---------|
| `@yearly` | `0 0 1 1 *` | Once a year |

# Changelog Linter
Validate CHANGELOG.md files against the [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com) specification.
## Commands
All commands use the bundled Python script at `scripts/changelog_linter.py`.
### 1. Lint a changelog
```bash
python3 scripts/changelog_linter.py lint <file> [--strict] [--format text|json|markdown]
```
Run all validation rules against a CHANGELOG.md file.
**Flags:**
- `--strict` — exit code 1 on any warning (not just errors)
- `--format` — output format: `text` (default), `json`, `markdown`
### 2. List versions
```bash
python3 scripts/changelog_linter.py versions <file> [--format text|json]
```
Extract and display all versions with dates and change counts.
### 3. Validate version ordering
```bash
python3 scripts/changelog_linter.py order <file> [--format text|json]
```
Check that versions are in descending semver order.
### 4. Check links
```bash
python3 scripts/changelog_linter.py links <file> [--format text|json]
```
Verify that all version headers have corresponding link references at the bottom.

2. **missing-description** — No description paragraph after title
3. **no-versions** — No version entries found
4. **empty-version** — Version section has no change entries
5. **unreleased-missing** — No `[Unreleased]` section
### Versions (4 rules)
6. **invalid-version** — Version doesn't follow semver (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH)
7. **invalid-date** — Date doesn't follow ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD)
8. **version-order** — Versions not in descending order
9. **duplicate-version** — Same version appears twice
### Sections (3 rules)
10. **invalid-section** — Section type not in spec (Added/Changed/Deprecated/Removed/Fixed/Security)
11. **empty-section** — Section header with no list items
12. **section-order** — Sections not in recommended order
### Formatting (4 rules)
13. **missing-link-ref** — Version header has no corresponding link reference
14. **broken-link-ref** — Link reference exists but URL is empty or malformed
15. **inconsistent-bullets** — Mixed bullet styles (`-` and `*`)
16. **trailing-whitespace** — Lines with trailing whitespace
## Output Formats
### Text (default)
```
CHANGELOG.md:15 error [invalid-date] Version 1.2.0 has invalid date: "March 2024" (expected YYYY-MM-DD)
CHANGELOG.md:28 warning [empty-section] Section "Deprecated" under 1.1.0 has no entries
CHANGELOG.md:45 warning [missing-link-ref] Version 1.0.0 has no link reference
3 issues (1 error, 2 warnings)
```
### JSON / Markdown
Standard structured output with issues, summary, and version list.
## CI Integration
```yaml
- name: Lint Changelog
run: python3 scripts/changelog_linter.py lint CHANGELOG.md --strict
```
Exit codes: 0 = valid, 1 = issues found.
FILE:STATUS.md
# Changelog Linter — Status
**Status:** Built, validated, tested. Ready for publishing.
**Version:** 1.0.0
**Price:** $49
## Next Steps
- [x] Build core linter (16 rules: 5 structure, 4 versions, 3 sections, 4 formatting)
- [x] Test with good and bad changelog files
- [x] Verify all output formats (text, JSON, markdown)
- [x] Verify all commands (lint, versions, order, links)
- [ ] Publish to ClawHub (after April 11 — GitHub account age)

description: Compare two OpenAPI 3.x or Swagger 2.0 specs and generate a changelog of breaking and non-breaking changes. Detect removed endpoints, new required parameters, type changes, schema modifications, enum changes, security changes, server URL changes, and deprecations. Use when asked to diff APIs, compare API versions, detect breaking changes, generate API changelogs, or review API spec changes. Triggers on "API diff", "API changelog", "breaking changes", "OpenAPI compare", "spec diff", "API version compare".

# API Diff — Changelog Generator
Compare two OpenAPI/Swagger specs and generate a detailed changelog with breaking change detection.
## Quick Diff
```bash
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old-spec.json new-spec.json
```
## Output Formats
```bash
# Text (default)
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old.json new.json
# JSON
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old.json new.json --format json
# Markdown
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old.json new.json --format markdown
```
## CI/CD Integration
```bash
# Fail if breaking changes found
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old.json new.json --fail-on-breaking
echo $? # 0 = no breaking, 1 = breaking found
# Show only breaking changes
python3 scripts/api_diff.py old.json new.json --breaking-only
```

description: Scan web endpoints for CORS misconfigurations. Detect origin reflection, wildcard policies, null origin acceptance, credential leaks, subdomain trust, HTTP origin trust on HTTPS, preflight issues, and private network access. Assign A-F security grades. Use when asked to check CORS, test cross-origin policy, audit CORS headers, scan for CORS vulnerabilities, or check if an API has safe CORS configuration. Triggers on "CORS", "cross-origin", "CORS misconfiguration", "CORS scan", "Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "origin reflection".

# CORS Misconfiguration Scanner
Scan web endpoints for dangerous Cross-Origin Resource Sharing policies. Detect misconfigurations that could allow attackers to steal data cross-origin.
## Quick Scan
```bash
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py https://api.example.com
```
## Batch Scan
```bash
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py https://api1.com https://api2.com https://api3.com
```
## Output Formats
```bash
# Text (default)
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py <url>
# JSON
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py <url> --format json
# Markdown report
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py <url> --format markdown
```
## CI/CD Integration
```bash
# Fail if any URL grades below C
python3 scripts/cors_scan.py https://api.example.com --min-grade C
echo $? # 0 = pass, 1 = fail
```
## What It Checks (13 checks)
| Check | Severity | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| Origin reflection | Critical/High | Server reflects arbitrary Origin back as ACAO |
| Credentials + wildcard | Critical | ACAO: * with ACAC: true (browser-blocked but misconfigured) |
| Null origin accepted | High/Medium | Origin: null trusted (exploitable via sandboxed iframes) |
| HTTP origin on HTTPS | High | HTTPS endpoint trusts HTTP origins (MitM risk) |
| Subdomain wildcard | High | Trusts any subdomain (*.domain.com) |
| Third-party origin | High | Confirms reflection with different attacker domain |
| Private network access | High | Allows external sites to reach internal network |
| Wildcard origin (*) | Medium | ACAO: * on potentially sensitive endpoints |
| Sensitive headers exposed | Medium | Exposes auth/session headers cross-origin |
| Wildcard methods | Medium | ACAM: * allows any HTTP method |
| Wildcard headers | Medium | ACAH: * allows any custom header |
| Missing max-age | Low | No preflight caching, increased latency |
| Clean | Info | No misconfigurations detected |
## Grading
| Grade | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| A | No CORS issues detected |
| B | Minor issues (low severity) |
| C | Moderate issues (medium severity) |
| D | Serious issues (high severity or multiple medium) |
| F | Critical misconfigurations (origin reflection + credentials) |
## Requirements
- Python 3.6+
- No external dependencies (stdlib only)
## Examples
```
$ python3 scripts/cors_scan.py https://httpbin.org/get
CORS Scan: https://httpbin.org/get
Grade: A
Findings: 0
============================================================

description: Audit and clean up Git repositories. Find stale/merged branches, large files in history, orphaned tags, repo bloat, and generate cleanup scripts. Use when asked to clean up a git repo, find stale branches, detect large files in git history, audit repo health, find merged branches to delete, reduce repo size, or perform git maintenance. Triggers on "clean up repo", "stale branches", "large files in git", "repo bloat", "merged branches", "git cleanup", "repo maintenance", "git audit".

# Git Repo Cleaner
Audit Git repositories for bloat, stale branches, and maintenance issues. Generate safe cleanup scripts.
## Quick Audit
```bash
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo
```
## Specific Checks
```bash
# Stale branches only
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo --check branches
# Large files in history
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo --check large-files
# Full audit
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo --check all
```
## Output Formats
```bash
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo --format text|json|markdown
```
## Checks Performed
### 1. Stale Branches
- Branches not updated in >30 days (configurable with `--stale-days`)
- Branches already merged into main/master
- Branches with no unique commits
- Remote tracking branches with deleted remotes
### 2. Large Files
- Files >1MB in current tree (configurable with `--min-size`)
- Large blobs in git history (top 20)
- Binary files that shouldn't be tracked
### 3. Repo Stats
- Total repo size (.git directory)
- Pack file stats
- Object count and size
- Unreachable objects
### 4. Maintenance
- Missing .gitignore patterns (node_modules, __pycache__, .env, etc.)
- Unoptimized packfiles
- Stale reflog entries
## Cleanup Script Generation
Use `--fix` to generate (not execute) cleanup scripts:
```bash
python3 scripts/audit_repo.py /path/to/repo --fix
# Outputs cleanup.sh with safe delete commands
```
The generated script uses `git branch -d` (safe delete, refuses if not merged) by default.
Use `--force-delete` to generate `git branch -D` commands instead.
## Workflow
1. Run audit on repo
2. Review findings
3. Generate cleanup script if needed
4. Review script before executing
5. Execute cleanup

**Price:** $49
**Status:** Ready
**Created:** 2026-04-01
## Description
Audit and clean up Git repositories. Find stale branches, merged branches, large files in history, repo bloat, and generate safe cleanup scripts.
## Features
- Branch audit: stale (configurable days), merged, active classification
- Large file detection: current tree + git history (pack analysis)
- Repo stats: .git size, commits, branches, tags, contributors, objects
- Maintenance checks: missing .gitignore patterns, tracked files that should be ignored, gc needs
- Cleanup script generation (--fix) with safe delete (git branch -d) or force (--force-delete)
- 3 output formats (text, JSON, markdown)
- CI-friendly exit codes (0 = clean, 1 = issues)
- Configurable thresholds (--stale-days, --min-size)
- Pure Python stdlib (requires git CLI)
## Tested Against
- nvm git repo (clean, basic stats)
- workspace git repo (empty repo handling)
- JSON + text output verified
- CLI args and flags verified

10. **Monitoring** — Logs, metrics, alerts
11. **Contacts** — On-call, escalation (template)
## Workflow
1. User points to a project directory
2. Script scans for infrastructure files
3. Extracts operational information
4. Generates structured runbook
5. Present to user for review and customization
FILE:STATUS.md
# runbook-generator — Status
**Price:** $59
**Status:** Ready
**Created:** 2026-04-01
## Description
Generate operational runbooks by scanning project infrastructure files. Produces structured Markdown runbooks with start/stop/restart/deploy/rollback/troubleshoot/monitoring procedures.
## Features
- Scans 7 file types: Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, systemd units, Makefile, package.json, .env, nginx.conf
- Dockerfile: base image, exposed ports, multi-stage builds, healthchecks, env vars
- Docker Compose: services, ports, volumes, dependencies, restart policies
- systemd: ExecStart/Stop/Reload, dependencies, restart policy, env files
- Makefile: target extraction (build, test, deploy, clean)
- package.json: scripts, engines, metadata
- .env: variable detection with value masking
- nginx: listen ports, server names, upstreams, locations
- 11 runbook sections generated automatically
- 2 output formats (markdown, JSON)
- File output with -o flag
- Pure Python stdlib (no dependencies)
## Tested Against
- OpenClaw npm package (package.json detected, scripts extracted)
- Docker multi-service project (Dockerfile + compose + .env + Makefile)
- JSON output verified

Assign A-F security grades with OWASP-aligned recommendations. Use when asked to check security headers, audit HTTP headers, scan a website for security, check HSTS/CSP configuration, grade website security posture, or review HTTP response security.

# HTTP Security Headers Analyzer
Analyze HTTP response headers for security best practices. Grade websites A-F with actionable recommendations.
## Quick Scan (Single URL)
```bash
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py <url>
```
## Batch Scan (Multiple URLs)
```bash
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py <url1> <url2> <url3>
```
## Output Formats
```bash
# Text (default)
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py <url>
# JSON
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py <url> --format json
# Markdown report
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py <url> --format markdown
```
## What It Checks
### Security Headers (15 checks)
| Header | Impact | Description |
|--------|--------|-------------|
| Strict-Transport-Security | Critical | HTTPS enforcement, preload, max-age |
| Content-Security-Policy | Critical | XSS/injection prevention, directive analysis |
| X-Frame-Options | High | Clickjacking protection |
| X-Content-Type-Options | High | MIME sniffing prevention |
| Referrer-Policy | Medium | Information leakage control |
| Permissions-Policy | Medium | Browser feature restrictions |
| X-XSS-Protection | Low | Legacy XSS filter (deprecated but checked) |
| Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy | Medium | Cross-origin isolation |
| Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy | Medium | Resource sharing control |
| Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy | Medium | Embedding restrictions |
| Cache-Control | Medium | Sensitive data caching |
| X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies | Low | Flash/PDF cross-domain |
| Clear-Site-Data | Info | Logout/session clearing |
| X-DNS-Prefetch-Control | Low | DNS prefetch control |
| Content-Type | High | Charset and MIME type |
### Negative Indicators (penalize)
- `Server` header revealing version info
- `X-Powered-By` header present
- `X-AspNet-Version` or similar tech disclosure
## Grading
- **A+** (100): All critical+high headers present with optimal config
- **A** (90-99): All critical headers, minor improvements possible
- **B** (75-89): Most headers present, some gaps
- **C** (60-74): Several missing headers
- **D** (40-59): Major security gaps
- **F** (<40): Critical headers missing
## CI Integration
Exit codes:
- `0` — Grade A or better
- `1` — Grade B-C (warnings)
- `2` — Grade D-F (failures)
Use `--min-grade B` to set custom threshold:
```bash
python3 scripts/scan_headers.py https://example.com --min-grade B
```
## Workflow
1. User provides URL(s) to scan
2. Run the scan script
3. Present the grade and findings
4. Highlight critical missing headers first
5. Provide specific fix recommendations (Nginx, Apache, Cloudflare snippets)

## Description
Analyze HTTP security headers for any URL. Grade websites A-F with 15 security header checks, CSP/HSTS deep analysis, information disclosure detection, and server-specific fix recommendations (Nginx, Apache, Cloudflare).
## Features
- 15 security header checks (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, etc.)
- Deep HSTS analysis (max-age, includeSubDomains, preload)
- Deep CSP analysis (unsafe-inline, unsafe-eval, wildcards, directive coverage)
- 5 information disclosure checks (Server, X-Powered-By, etc.)
- A-F grading with weighted scoring
- 3 output formats (text, JSON, markdown)
- CI-friendly exit codes + --min-grade flag
- Fix snippets for Nginx, Apache, Cloudflare
- Batch URL scanning
- Pure Python stdlib (no dependencies)
## Tested Against
- google.com (Grade F — few security headers)
- github.com (Grade D — good CSP but missing COOP/CORP/COEP)
- cloudflare.com (Grade D — no CSP, good basic headers)
- JSON + Markdown output verified
- CI exit codes verified

## Metrics
| Metric | Description | Default Threshold |
|--------|-------------|-------------------|
| Cyclomatic (CC) | Independent execution paths | ≤10 |
| Cognitive (COG) | Perceived difficulty to understand (nesting-weighted) | ≤15 |
| Lines | Function length | ≤50 |
| Params | Parameter count | ≤5 |
| Nesting | Max nesting depth | ≤4 |
## Risk Levels
- 🟢 **Simple** — CC≤5, COG≤8
- 🟡 **Low** — CC≤10, COG≤15
- 🟠 **Moderate** — CC≤20, COG≤25
- 🔴 **High** — CC>20 or COG>25
## Options
```
--cc N Cyclomatic threshold (default: 10)
--cog N Cognitive threshold (default: 15)
--max-lines N Function length threshold (default: 50)
--max-params N Parameter count threshold (default: 5)
--max-nesting N Nesting depth threshold (default: 4)
--exclude DIR Additional directories to exclude
--verbose, -v Show all functions, not just violations
```
Auto-excluded: `node_modules`, `.git`, `__pycache__`, `venv`, `dist`, `build`.
## Exit Codes
- `0` — no violations
- `1` — violations found (functions exceed CC or COG thresholds)
- `2` — no analyzable files found

name: api-mock-generator
description: Generate mock API servers from OpenAPI 3.x and Swagger 2.0 specs. Use when creating mock/stub APIs for frontend development, testing, demos, or CI. Generates realistic fake data based on schema types and property names. Supports live server mode, static JSON file generation, response delays, random error simulation, and CORS. Pure Python, no dependencies.
---
# API Mock Generator
Generate mock API servers and static fixtures from OpenAPI/Swagger specs. Contextual fake data (emails, names, UUIDs, etc.) based on property names and schema types.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Start a live mock server
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py serve api.json
# Generate static JSON mock files
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py generate api.json -o mocks/
# List discovered routes
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py routes api.json
# Generate sample response for a specific endpoint
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py sample api.json /users
```
## Commands
### `serve` — Live Mock Server
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py serve spec.json [options]
```
Options:
- `--port`, `-p` — port (default: 3000)
- `--host` — host (default: 127.0.0.1)
- `--delay`, `-d` — response delay in ms (simulate latency)
- `--error-rate`, `-e` — random error rate 0.0-1.0 (simulate failures)
Features: CORS headers on all responses, path parameter matching, JSON responses with Content-Type headers.
### `generate` — Static Mock Files
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py generate spec.json -o output_dir/
```
Creates one JSON file per route + `manifest.json` with route mapping. Useful for test fixtures or frontend stubs.
### `routes` — Discover Endpoints
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py routes spec.json [--format text|json]
```
### `sample` — Single Endpoint Preview
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_mock.py sample spec.json /users --method GET
```
## Supported Specs
- OpenAPI 3.x (JSON)
- Swagger 2.0 (JSON)
- YAML (requires `pip install pyyaml`)
## Fake Data Generation
Property-name-aware generation:
| Property pattern | Generated data |
|-----------------|---------------|
| `*email*` | realistic email |
| `*name*` | first/last/full name |
| `*phone*` | formatted phone |
| `*url*`, `*website*` | https URL |
| `*city*`, `*country*` | real city/country |
| `*id*`, `*uuid*` | UUID v4 |
| `*price*`, `*amount*` | currency-like number |
| `*image*`, `*avatar*` | picsum.photos URL |
| `*description*`, `*bio*` | lorem paragraph |
| `*status*` | active/inactive/pending |
Schema-aware: respects `enum`, `example`, `default`, `format` (date, date-time, email, uri, uuid, ipv4), `minimum`/`maximum`, `minLength`/`maxLength`, `$ref`, `oneOf`/`anyOf`/`allOf`.
## Exit Codes
- `0` — success
- `1` — route not found (sample command)
- `2` — spec parse error or system error

description: Validate git commit messages against Conventional Commits spec and configurable rules. Use when linting commit messages, enforcing commit conventions, checking commit history quality, setting up commit-msg hooks, or validating messages in CI pipelines. Supports custom type/scope whitelists, length limits, pattern matching, and multiple output formats (text, JSON, markdown).
---
# Commit Message Linter
Validate commit messages against Conventional Commits and custom rules. Pure Python, no dependencies.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Lint last commit
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py
# Lint last 5 commits
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --range HEAD~5..HEAD
# Lint a branch
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --range main..feature-branch
# Lint a single message
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --message "feat: add login"
# Read from stdin (git commit-msg hook)
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --stdin < .git/COMMIT_MSG
# Read from file
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --file .git/COMMIT_MSG
```
## Output Formats
```bash
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --format text # human-readable (default)
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --format json # CI/tooling
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py --format markdown # reports
```
## Configuration
Generate default config:
```bash
python3 scripts/lint_commits.py init
```
Creates `.commitlintrc.json`. Also auto-discovers `.commitlintrc` or `commitlint.config.json`.
Key config options:
- `header_max_length` (72) — max header chars
- `require_conventional` (true) — enforce `<type>[scope]: <desc>` format
- `types` — allowed types (feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore, revert)
- `scopes` — allowed scopes (empty = any)
- `require_scope` (false) — mandate scope
- `require_body` (false) — mandate body
- `header_case` — description start case: lower/upper/sentence/any
- `no_trailing_period` (true) — reject trailing period on header
- `forbidden_patterns` — regex patterns that reject commits
- `required_patterns` — regex patterns that must match
- `--strict` flag treats warnings as errors
## Rules Reference
| Rule | Level | Description |
|------|-------|-------------|
| header-empty | error | Empty header |
| header-max-length | error | Header exceeds max length |
| header-min-length | warning | Header below min length |
| conventional-format | error | Not Conventional Commits format |
| type-enum | error | Type not in allowed list |
| scope-required | error | Missing required scope |
| scope-enum | error | Scope not in allowed list |
| description-empty | error | Empty description |
| description-case | warning | Wrong description case |
| header-no-period | warning | Trailing period |
| header-leading-whitespace | error | Leading whitespace |
| header-trailing-whitespace | warning | Trailing whitespace |
| body-separator | error | No blank line before body |
| body-required | warning | Missing required body |
| body-line-length | warning | Body line too long |
| body-max-lines | warning | Too many body lines |
| breaking-change-description | warning | Breaking ! without BREAKING CHANGE: in body |
| forbidden-pattern | error | Matches forbidden regex |
| required-pattern | warning | Doesn't match required regex |
## Exit Codes
- `0` — all commits pass (warnings OK unless `--strict`)
- `1` — errors found (or warnings with `--strict`)
- `2` — git/system error
## CI Integration (Git Hook)
As commit-msg hook (`.git/hooks/commit-msg`):
```bash
#!/bin/sh
python3 path/to/lint_commits.py --file "$1" --strict
```
Auto-ignored: merge commits, reverts, version tags, "Initial commit".

name: codebase-stats
description: >
Analyze project metrics: lines of code, language distribution, function complexity,
code-to-comment ratio, test coverage indicators, dependency counts, largest files,
and tech debt signals (TODOs, FIXMEs, HACKs). Supports 40+ languages.
Use when asked to analyze a codebase, count lines of code, check code complexity,
get project statistics, audit code quality, measure tech debt, or understand
language distribution in a project.
Triggers on "codebase stats", "lines of code", "LOC", "code complexity",
"project metrics", "code quality", "tech debt", "language distribution",
"project size", "code analysis", "cyclomatic complexity".
---
# Codebase Stats
Project metrics, complexity analysis, and health indicators. Pure Python, zero deps, 40+ languages.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Analyze current directory
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py
# Analyze specific project
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py /path/to/project
# Markdown report
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py /path/to/project --format markdown
# JSON (for CI/CD dashboards)
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py /path/to/project --format json
# Filter by language
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py --language Python
# Save report
python3 scripts/codebase_stats.py --format markdown --output stats.md
```
## What It Measures
| Category | Metrics |
|----------|---------|
| **Size** | Total files, code/comment/blank lines, lines per file |
| **Languages** | Distribution by code lines and file count (40+ languages) |
| **Complexity** | Per-function cyclomatic complexity estimate, top complex functions |
| **Quality** | Code-to-comment ratio, test file coverage indicator |
| **Dependencies** | npm, pip, Go modules, Cargo crate counts |
| **Tech Debt** | TODO/FIXME/HACK/XXX counts across codebase |
| **Files** | Top 10 largest files by line count |
## Supported Languages
Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, C, C++, C#, Swift,
Kotlin, Scala, R, Lua, Perl, Shell, SQL, HTML, CSS, SCSS, Vue, Svelte, Dart,
Elixir, Erlang, Zig, Nim, V, Solidity, Terraform, Protobuf, and more.
## Exit Codes
- `0` — Success
- `1` — Error (directory not found, language not found)
FILE:STATUS.md
# codebase-stats — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $49
**Created:** 2026-03-30
## What It Does
Analyzes project metrics: LOC, language distribution, function complexity (simplified cyclomatic), code-to-comment ratio, test coverage indicator, dependency counts, largest files, tech debt signals. 40+ languages. Pure Python, no deps.
## Components
- `scripts/codebase_stats.py` — main scanner (3 output formats)
- Tested on real project directory
## Next Steps
- [ ] Publish to ClawHub (after April 11)
- [ ] Add historical tracking (compare over time)
- [ ] Add --compare flag for branch comparison

Auto-generate pull request descriptions from git diffs and commit history.
Parses conventional commits, categorizes changes (features, fixes, refactoring),
analyzes file impact, generates reviewer hints, and produces structured descriptions.
Supports minimal, standard, and detailed templates with markdown or JSON output.
Use when asked to generate PR descriptions, create pull request summaries,
describe git changes, summarize a branch, or prepare a PR body.
Triggers on "PR description", "pull request description", "generate PR",
"describe changes", "PR summary", "what changed", "PR body", "PR template".

# PR Description Generator
Auto-generate structured PR descriptions from git diffs and commit history. Pure Python + git CLI.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Standard description (current branch vs main)
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py
# Compare against specific base branch
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --base develop
# Minimal template (just bullet points)
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --template minimal
# Detailed template (file breakdown + reviewer hints)
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --template detailed
# JSON output (for automation)
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --format json
# Different repo path
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --repo /path/to/repo
# Save to file
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --output pr-body.md
# Copy to clipboard
python3 scripts/generate_pr_description.py --copy
```
## Features
- **Conventional commit parsing** — groups commits by type (feat, fix, refactor, etc.)
- **Impact analysis** — rates changes as high/medium/low based on files, size, and risk
- **File categorization** — groups by code, tests, docs, infra, deps, config, database, styles
- **Reviewer hints** — warns about missing tests, DB migrations, infra changes, deletions
- **Auto test plan** — generates relevant test checklist based on changed file types
- **Auto base detection** — detects main vs master branch
## Templates
| Template | Use Case |
|----------|----------|
| `minimal` | Quick summary, internal PRs |
| `standard` | Default, most PRs |
| `detailed` | Large PRs, cross-team reviews |
## Conventional Commits
Best results when commits follow conventional format:
```
feat(auth): add OAuth2 login
fix(api): handle null response from payment gateway
refactor: extract validation into shared utility
docs: update API reference for v2 endpoints
```
Non-conventional commits are grouped under "Other Changes".
FILE:STATUS.md
# pr-description-generator — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $49
**Created:** 2026-03-30
## What It Does
Auto-generates PR descriptions from git diffs. Parses conventional commits, categorizes changes, rates impact, generates reviewer hints and test checklists. 3 templates (minimal/standard/detailed), markdown or JSON output. Pure Python + git CLI.
## Components
- `scripts/generate_pr_description.py` — main generator
- Tested on real git repository with conventional commits
## Next Steps
- [ ] Publish to ClawHub (after April 11)
- [ ] Add --gh-create flag to directly create PR via gh CLI
- [ ] Support Jira ticket extraction from branch names

- File-level change breakdown
- Impact analysis (high/medium/low)
- Reviewer hints
- Conventional commit parsing
No external dependencies — pure Python stdlib + git CLI.

Validate CSV, JSON, and JSONL data files for quality issues. Detects missing values,
duplicates, type inconsistencies, statistical outliers, format violations, whitespace
problems, empty columns, and schema drift. Generates quality score (0-100) with
severity-ranked issues. Supports schema validation and auto-schema generation.
Use when asked to check data quality, validate CSV/JSON files, find data issues,
detect duplicates, check for missing values, validate data types, find outliers,
generate data quality reports, or validate against a schema.
Triggers on "data quality", "validate CSV", "check data", "data issues", "duplicates",
"missing values", "outliers", "data validation", "schema validation", "data profiling".

# Data Quality Checker
Validate CSV/JSON/JSONL data for quality issues. Pure Python, zero dependencies.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Full quality check
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv
# JSON/JSONL support
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.json
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.jsonl
# Markdown report
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --format markdown
# JSON report (for CI/CD)
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --format json
# Only specific checks
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --checks missing,duplicates,types
# Only warnings and critical
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --severity warning
# Save report
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --format markdown --output report.md
```
## Schema Validation
```bash
# Generate schema from existing data
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --generate-schema schema.json
# Validate against schema
python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv --schema schema.json
```
## Checks Performed
| Check | Description | Severity |
|-------|-------------|----------|
| `missing` | Missing/null/empty values per column | info → critical |
| `duplicates` | Duplicate rows and potential ID conflicts | warning |
| `types` | Mixed data types within columns | info → warning |
| `outliers` | Statistical outliers via IQR method | info → warning |
| `formats` | Email/phone/URL/date format violations | warning |
| `whitespace` | Leading/trailing whitespace | info |
| `empty` | Entirely empty columns | warning |
| `drift` | Extra/missing keys across rows (schema drift) | warning |
## Quality Score
0-100 score based on weighted severity:
- **90-100**: Clean data, minor issues
- **70-89**: Usable but needs attention
- **50-69**: Significant issues
- **0-49**: Critical problems
## Exit Codes
- `0` — No warnings or critical issues
- `1` — Warnings found
- `2` — Critical issues found
Use in CI: `python3 scripts/check_data_quality.py data.csv || echo "Quality check failed"`
## Schema Format
JSON schema with validation rules:
```json
{
"required": ["id", "email", "name"],
"properties": {
"id": {"type": "integer", "minimum": 1},
"email": {"type": "string", "pattern": "^[^@]+@[^@]+\\.[^@]+$"},
"age": {"type": "number", "minimum": 0, "maximum": 150},
"status": {"type": "string", "enum": ["active", "inactive", "pending"]}
}
}
```

# data-quality-checker — Status
**Status:** Ready
**Price:** $59
**Created:** 2026-03-30
## What It Does
Validates CSV/JSON/JSONL data for quality issues: missing values, duplicates, type inconsistencies, outliers, format violations, whitespace, empty columns, schema drift. Quality score 0-100. Schema validation and auto-generation. Pure Python, no deps.
## Components
- `scripts/check_data_quality.py` — main checker (8 checks, 3 output formats)
- Tested with CSV and JSON sample data
## Next Steps
- [ ] Publish to ClawHub (after April 11)
- [ ] Add JSONL streaming for large files
- [ ] Add --fix mode for auto-corrections

Parses billing data, usage logs, or API responses to produce cost breakdowns by model, feature, and time period. Identifies optimization opportunities (model downgrades, caching, prompt compression). Use when asked to analyze API costs, track AI spending, optimize LLM usage, create cost reports, find expensive API calls, compare model pricing, set budget alerts, or audit API usage. Triggers on "API costs", "how much am I spending", "optimize API usage", "cost breakdown", "LLM spending", "token usage", "billing analysis", "reduce API costs", "budget tracking".

# API Cost Tracker
Analyze and optimize AI API costs across multiple providers with detailed breakdowns, trend detection, and actionable savings recommendations.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Analyze OpenRouter usage (from activity page export)
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json
# Analyze OpenAI usage (from billing export)
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openai --file usage.json
# Analyze from environment (auto-detect provider from API keys)
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py auto --days 30
# Cost breakdown by model
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --by model
# Cost breakdown by day with trend analysis
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --by day --trends
# Find most expensive requests
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --top 20
# Compare current vs optimized (model substitution analysis)
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --optimize
# Set budget alert threshold
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --budget 50.00
# Output as markdown report
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --output markdown
# Output as JSON
python3 scripts/api_cost_tracker.py openrouter --file activity.json --output json
```
## Supported Providers
| Provider | Input Format | Auto-detect |
|----------|-------------|-------------|
| OpenAI | Billing CSV/JSON export, API responses | OPENAI_API_KEY |
| Anthropic | Usage API, console export | ANTHROPIC_API_KEY |
| OpenRouter | Activity JSON, API responses | OPENROUTER_API_KEY |
| Google AI | Billing export | GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY |
| Generic | CSV with columns: timestamp, model, tokens_in, tokens_out, cost | N/A |
## Analysis Features
1. **Cost Breakdown** — by model, day, week, feature/tag, request type
2. **Trend Detection** — spending velocity, anomaly detection, projected monthly cost
3. **Optimization Report** — model substitution suggestions, caching opportunities, prompt compression candidates
4. **Budget Alerts** — daily/weekly/monthly thresholds with projected overrun warnings
5. **Top Spenders** — most expensive individual requests or sessions
6. **Model Comparison** — cost-per-quality analysis using common benchmarks
## Output Formats
- **Terminal** (default) — colored tables and charts
- **Markdown** — report suitable for documentation
- **JSON** — structured data for programmatic use
- **CSV** — spreadsheet-compatible export
## How It Works
The script:
1. Reads usage data from the specified source (file, API, or environment)
2. Normalizes all entries to a common format (timestamp, model, input_tokens, output_tokens, cost)
3. Applies current provider pricing to calculate/verify costs
4. Groups and aggregates by the requested dimension
5. Runs optimization analysis comparing current models to cheaper alternatives
6. Generates the report in the requested format
## Pricing Database
Built-in pricing for 50+ models (updated March 2026). Override with `--pricing custom_prices.json`.
## Requirements
- Python 3.8+
- No external dependencies (stdlib only)
