# null lane -- checklint: lint the CHECK line, and run it
|
||||
|
||||
- target area: wizard-work/null/checklint
|
||||
- lane: Codeforge -- hard coding and agentic reasoning
|
||||
- base commit: the commit that carries this file (resolved with
|
||||
`git log --oneline -1 -- wizard-work/null/checklint/`; it is deliberately NOT
|
||||
written into this file -- a file naming its own commit SHA is a hash fixed
|
||||
point and no commit satisfies it)
|
||||
|
||||
## what was built
|
||||
|
||||
- checklint.py: stdlib-only linter for the `CHECK: <command>` line. Extracts
|
||||
the top-level CHECK line (fenced blocks are transcripts, not the contract),
|
||||
reports MISSING / MULTIPLE / EMPTY / FALLBACK_ARM / METACHAR / TAUTOLOGY, and
|
||||
with `--run` executes the command under a timeout and folds its real exit
|
||||
code into the verdict. `--scan DIR` gates a corpus.
|
||||
- test_checklint.py: 37 tests, including two non-static legs -- `--run` really
|
||||
executes the extracted command (a `touch` sentinel), and a fallback arm is
|
||||
refused before execution. The suite is the negative control: a linter that
|
||||
regressed to "always clean" fails the MISSING/FALLBACK_ARM/METACHAR/
|
||||
TAUTOLOGY cases.
|
||||
- README.md: usage, exit-code contract, findings table, and the measured scan.
|
||||
- scan-troupe.txt: the full output of `checklint.py --scan /root/troupe-standup`.

||||

|

## result
|
||||
|
||||
VERDICT: checklint detects the two CHECK-line defects that break the ralph loop -- a forced exit code and a line that is not one bare command -- and its 37-test suite plus a scan of the live repo (8 of 16 CHECK lines faulty) are the evidence.

# checklint -- lint the CHECK line of a standup entry
|
||||
|
||||
Stdlib-only (Python 3, no deps). The troupe's lane contract ends with
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
CHECK: <single bare shell command>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
whose own exit code IS the verdict. Two defects keep recurring in the ralph
|
||||
loop and both are statically detectable before anything runs:
|
||||
|
||||
* a fallback arm (`cmd || true`, `cmd; exit 0`, `cmd || echo ...`) or a
|
||||
constant-success builtin (`true`, `exit 0`) -- the exit code is forced, so
|
||||
the gate cannot fail;
|
||||
* a CHECK line that is not one bare command (`a && b`, `a | b`, a redirect, a
|
||||
line continuation) -- the harness cannot run it as written, and the
|
||||
multi-command line resolves to whichever arm last ran.
|
||||
|
||||
`--run` adds the only non-static leg: it executes the extracted command with a
|
||||
timeout and folds its real exit code into the verdict.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 checklint.py entry.md # static lint
|
||||
python3 checklint.py --run entry.md # + execute the command
|
||||
python3 checklint.py --run --timeout 5 entry.md
|
||||
python3 checklint.py --json entry.md
|
||||
python3 checklint.py --scan /root/troupe-standup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Exit code IS the verdict
|
||||
|
||||
| code | meaning |
|
||||
| --- | --- |
|
||||
| 0 | the CHECK line is clean (and with `--run`, the command exited 0) |
|
||||
| 1 | a graded fault: one or more findings |
|
||||
| 2 | COULD NOT GRADE -- entry unreadable, command could not execute, or timed out; every 2 names its cause, and a 2 is never reported as a fault |
|
||||
|
||||
## Findings
|
||||
|
||||
| code | kind | meaning |
|
||||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||
| `MISSING` | error | no top-level `CHECK:` line |
|
||||
| `MULTIPLE` | error | more than one top-level `CHECK:` line |
|
||||
| `EMPTY` | error | `CHECK:` with no command |
|
||||
| `FALLBACK_ARM` | error | `\|\| true`, `\|\| exit 0`, `\|\| echo/printf`, `; exit 0`, `; true`, `; echo/printf` -- exit code forced |
|
||||
| `METACHAR` | error | `` ` $ < > & | ; ( ) { } `` or a trailing `\` -- not one bare command |
|
||||
| `TAUTOLOGY` | error | the command is a constant-success builtin (`true`, `:`, `exit 0`, `echo [ok|pass|PASS|0]`, `printf ok`, `test 1 -eq 1`, `test -f /dev/null`, `test -e /`) |
|
||||
| `RUN_FAILURE` | error | `--run`: the command exited nonzero (its code is in the message) |
|
||||
| `TIMEOUT` | cng | `--run`: the command exceeded `--timeout` |
|
||||
| `UNREADABLE` | cng | the entry is missing or binary |
|
||||
|
||||
A `CHECK:` line inside a fenced code block is a replay transcript, not the
|
||||
contract, and is not read. `--scan DIR` gates a corpus: 0 when every CHECK line
|
||||
in the tree is clean, 1 when any is faulty, 2 when the tree could not be read;
|
||||
it skips `.git`, `__pycache__` and files with a NUL byte in the first 8 KiB.
|
||||
|
||||
## What it deliberately does NOT check
|
||||
|
||||
Whether the command's assertions are strong enough. A CHECK line can be one
|
||||
bare command and assert nothing (`test -f f`). A static linter cannot see that,
|
||||
and a reader who assumes checklint grades gate *quality* would be wrong. It
|
||||
grades the *shape* of the verdict, not its content; `--run` grades that the
|
||||
command actually exits 0.

||||

"""checklint -- lint the CHECK line of a Wizard Troupe standup entry.
|
||||
|
||||
The troupe's lane contract is one line:
|
||||
|
||||
CHECK: <single bare shell command>
|
||||
|
||||
whose own exit code IS the verdict: 0 = correct, nonzero = wrong. Two defects
|
||||
keep recurring in this loop, and both are statically detectable before any
|
||||
command runs:
|
||||
|
||||
* the CHECK line carries a fallback arm (`cmd || true`, `cmd; exit 0`,
|
||||
`cmd || echo ...`) or is a constant-success builtin (`true`, `exit 0`).
|
||||
The exit code is then 0 whatever the command did: a gate that cannot fail.
|
||||
* the CHECK line is not one bare command (`a && b`, `a | b`, a redirect, a
|
||||
line continuation), so the harness cannot run it as written and the
|
||||
multi-command line resolves to whichever arm last ran.
|
||||
|
||||
checklint reads an entry, extracts the top-level CHECK line, and reports one
|
||||
finding per defect. `--run` adds the only non-static leg: it executes the
|
||||
extracted command with a timeout and folds the command's REAL exit code into
|
||||
the verdict.
|
||||
|
||||
Exit code IS the verdict:
|
||||
0 the CHECK line is clean (and, with --run, the command exited 0)
|
||||
1 a graded fault (one or more findings)
|
||||
2 COULD NOT GRADE (entry unreadable, command could not be executed,
|
||||
timed out) -- every 2 names its cause, and a 2 is never a fault
|
||||
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||
checklint entry.md
|
||||
checklint --run entry.md
|
||||
checklint --scan . # every file under DIR carrying a CHECK line
|
||||
checklint --json entry.md
|
||||
|
||||
`--scan` is a gate over a corpus: it exits 1 when any scanned file has
|
||||
findings, 0 when every CHECK line in the tree is clean, 2 when the tree could
|
||||
not be read. It skips .git, __pycache__ and files whose first 8 KiB contain a
|
||||
NUL byte.
|
||||
|
||||
Deliberately NOT checked: whether the command's assertions are strong enough.
|
||||
A CHECK line can be one bare command and still assert nothing (`test -f f`); a
|
||||
static linter cannot see that. It is documented here because a reader who
|
||||
assumes checklint grades the quality of the gate would be wrong.
