name: lint-and-fix description: Run linters and fix violations, formatting errors, or style mismatches using Trunk. Use when code quality checks fail, before submitting PRs, or to repair "broken" linting states.
Lint and Fix Loop: Trunk
Purpose
An autonomous loop for the agent to identify, fix, and verify linting and formatting violations using Trunk.
Loop Logic
- Format: Run
pnpm format(which executestrunk fmt) to automatically fix trivial formatting issues. - Identify: Run
pnpm lint(which executestrunk check) to list any remaining violations. - Analyze: Examine the output from Trunk, focusing on the file path, line number, and error message. Refer to ../common-references/troubleshooting.md for environment or runtime issues.
- Fix: Apply the minimum necessary change to the source code to resolve the reported linting violations.
- Verify: Re-run the loop (starting from Format) until all issues are resolved.
- If
pnpm lintpasses: Finish. - If it fails: Analyze the new failure and repeat the loop.
- If
Termination Criteria
- No more errors reported by
pnpm lint. - Reached max iteration limit (default: 5).
Examples
Scenario: Fixing violations in a modified file
- Agent runs
pnpm formatto ensure consistent style. - Agent runs
pnpm lintand finds a linting violation insrc/index.ts. - Agent analyzes the error and applies a manual fix.
- Agent runs
pnpm formatagain (part of the loop). - Agent runs
pnpm lintand it now passes.
