Gptlint NPM | npm.io

GPTLint

A fundamentally new approach to code quality. Use LLMs to enforce higher-level best practices across your codebase in a way that takes traditional static analysis tools like eslint to the next level.

Features

✅️ enforce higher-level best practices that are impossible with ast-based approaches
✅️ simple markdown format for rules (example, spec)
✅️ easy to disable or customize rules
✅️ add custom, project-specific rules
✅️ same cli and config format as eslint
✅️ supports gptlint.config.js and inline overrides /* gptlint-disable */
✅️ content-based caching
✅️ outputs LLM stats per run (cost, tokens, etc)
✅️ built-in rules are extensively tested w/ evals
✅️ supports all major LLM providers and local models
✅️ augments eslint instead of trying to replace it (we love eslint!)
✅️ includes guidelines for creating your own rules
❌ MVP rules are JS/TS only for now
❌ MVP rules are single-file context only for now
❌ MVP does not support autofixing for now
