Runtime description

The following is the tool's own agent-facing description, reproduced from the reviewed registry. It can contain implementation terminology; it does not expand the public stability commitment.

Read the agent-facing description

WORKFLOW: rules (list detectors) → scan (run on project).
Code smell detection: dead_code, long_function, god_file, complexity, etc.
rule='name' or path='file' to filter.
ANTIPATTERN: NOT a linter — no style/format enforcement.
