Output Format

Token-efficient output format for AI agents

Agent Mode (default)

Grouped by file, then linter, then rule, with compressed line numbers:

file.ts
 linter
  line,line,line rule/name

Example

apps/web/showcase.tsx
 biome
  42,55,60,78,92,103 lint/suspicious/noExplicitAny
  1312 lint/correctness/noChildrenProp
 eslint
  1184,1209,1215,1220,1225 @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-call
 oxlint
  800,804 eslint-plugin-react-perf(jsx-no-jsx-as-prop)
 prettier
  unformatted
sync.ts
 oxlint
  37,66 eslint-plugin-unicorn(no-await-expression-member)

Rules

Zero output on success (exit 0)
Exit 1 on errors with grouped output
Deduplication across linters (biome > oxlint > eslint priority)
Prettier violations show as unformatted (no line numbers)
sort-package-json violations show as unsorted
Comment violations show as deletable

Human Mode (`--human`)

Pass --human to get full verbose output from each linter:

lintmax check --human
lintmax fix --human

CLI Reference

lintmax fix              # fix all, delete comments, silent on success
lintmax fix --human      # fix all, show verbose output
lintmax check            # compact error output
lintmax check --human    # verbose output from each tool
lintmax rules            # list all enabled rules (compact)
