Coding guidelines verifier
Goal
Validate that changes follow the nearest nested AGENTS.md:
- default: changed files only
- default: auto-fix formatting before lint/tests
- monorepo-aware: each moduleโs AGENTS.md is the source of truth for that scope
Workflow (checklist)
1) Collect changed files (staged + unstaged + untracked).
2) For each changed file, find the nearest parent AGENTS.md.
- If a file has no scoped AGENTS.md, report it (suggest running coding-guidelines-gen).
3) Parse the codex-guidelines block (schema: references/verifiable-block.md).
4) Run, per scope:
- format (auto-fix) -> lint -> tests
- apply simple forbid rules (globs/regex) from the block
5) Produce a short compliance report (template: references/report-template.md).
Automation
Use scripts/verify_guidelines.py to group scopes, run commands, and report results.
- If python is not available or the script fails, tell the user and ask whether to install Python or proceed with a manual per-scope verification.
Deliverable
Provide:
- The per-scope compliance report (use references/report-template.md).
- Any auto-fix formatting changes applied.
- Lint/test commands run and their results, plus any violations.
