### Initialize Configuration (Optional)

```bash
# Create project configuration file
linthis init

# Create global configuration file
linthis init -g

# Project-level hooks
linthis hook install                                          # git pre-commit hook
linthis hook install --type git-with-agent --provider claude  # git hook + AI auto-fix on failure

linthis hook install --global --event commit-msg              # global commit message format hook

# Force overwrite existing files
linthis init --force
linthis hook install --force
```

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Check and format current directory (default behavior)
linthis

# Check and format specific directories
linthis -i src/
linthis --include src/ --include lib/

# Check only, no formatting
linthis -c
linthis --check-only

# Format only, no checking
linthis -f
linthis --format-only

# Check Git staged files (suitable for pre-commit hook)
linthis -s
linthis --staged

# Check all locally modified files (staged + unstaged)
linthis -m
linthis --modified
```

### Specify Languages

```bash
# Check specific language
linthis -l python
linthis --lang rust

# Check multiple languages
linthis -l python,rust,cpp
linthis --lang "python,javascript,go"
```

### Exclude Files

```bash
# Exclude specific patterns
linthis -e "*.test.js" -e "dist/**"
linthis --exclude "target/**" --exclude "node_modules/**"
```

## Plugin System

linthis supports Git-based configuration plugins for easy sharing of code standards across projects and teams.

<video src="docs/assets/videos/PluginSystem-en.mp4" controls width="100%"></video>

### Add Plugin

```bash
# Add plugin to project config (.linthis/config.toml)
linthis plugin add <alias> <git-url>

# Example: Add a custom plugin
linthis plugin add myplugin https://github.com/zhlinh/linthis-plugin.git

# Add to global config (~/.linthis/config.toml)
linthis plugin add -g <alias> <git-url>
linthis plugin add --global <alias> <git-url>
```

### Use Plugin

Plugins are automatically loaded when running linthis. After adding a plugin:

```bash
# Plugin configs are auto-loaded
linthis

# Combine with other options
linthis -i src/
# Check only
linthis -c
# Format only
linthis -f
# Check and format files staged
linthis -s
```

### Remove Plugin

```bash
# Remove plugin from project config
linthis plugin remove <alias>
linthis plugin remove myplugin

# Remove plugin from global config
linthis plugin remove -g <alias>
linthis plugin remove --global myplugin

# Supports flexible parameter ordering
linthis plugin remove --global myplugin
```

### View and Manage Plugins

```bash
# View project config plugins
linthis plugin list

# View global config plugins
linthis plugin list -g
linthis plugin list --global

# Sync (update) plugins
linthis plugin sync          # Sync local plugins
linthis plugin sync --global # Sync global plugins

# Initialize new plugin
linthis plugin init my-config

# Validate plugin structure
linthis plugin validate /path/to/plugin

# Clean plugin cache
linthis plugin clean          # Interactive cleanup
linthis plugin clean --all    # Clean all caches
```

## Configuration Files

### Project Configuration

Use `linthis init` to create the configuration file:

```bash
linthis init
```

This creates `.linthis/config.toml` in your project root:

```toml
# Specify languages to check (omit for auto-detection)
languages = ["rust", "python", "javascript"]

# Exclude files and directories
excludes = [
    "target/**",
    "node_modules/**",
    "*.generated.rs",
    "dist/**"
]

# Maximum cyclomatic complexity
max_complexity = 20

# Format preset
preset = "google"  # Options: google, airbnb, standard

# Configure plugins
[plugins]
sources = [
    { name = "official" },
    { name = "myplugin", url = "https://github.com/zhlinh/linthis-plugin.git", ref = "main" }
]

# Language-specific configuration
# [rust]
# max_complexity = 15

# [python]
# excludes = ["*_test.py"]
```

### Global Configuration

Global configuration file is located at `~/.linthis/config.toml`, with the same format as project config.

### Configuration Priority

Configuration merge priority (from high to low):

1. **CLI Parameters**: `--option value`
2. **Project Config**: `.linthis/config.toml`
3. **Global Config**: `~/.linthis/config.toml`
4. **Built-in Defaults**

For tool-specific configs (ruff.toml, .eslintrc.js, etc.), the priority is:

1. **Local manual configs** (highest) - ruff.toml, pyproject.toml, .eslintrc.js in project
2. **CLI plugin configs** - from `--use-plugin` option
3. **Project plugin configs** - from `.linthis/config.toml` plugins section
4. **Global plugin configs** - from `~/.linthis/config.toml` plugins
5. **Tool defaults** (lowest)

## Configuration Management

linthis provides a `config` subcommand for convenient command-line configuration management without manual TOML editing.

### Array Field Operations

Supported array fields: `includes`, `excludes`, `languages`

#### Add Values (add)

```bash
# Add to project config
linthis config add includes "src/**"
linthis config add excludes "*.log"
linthis config add languages "rust"

# Add to global config (-g or --global)
linthis config add -g includes "lib/**"
linthis config add --global excludes "node_modules/**"

# Add multiple values (automatically deduped)
linthis config add includes "src/**"
linthis config add includes "lib/**"
```

#### Remove Values (remove)

```bash
# Remove from project config
linthis config remove excludes "*.log"
linthis config remove languages "python"

# Remove from global config
linthis config remove -g includes "lib/**"
linthis config remove --global excludes "target/**"
```

#### Clear Field (clear)

```bash
# Clear project config field
linthis config clear languages
linthis config clear includes

# Clear global config field
linthis config clear -g excludes
linthis config clear --global languages
```

### Scalar Field Operations

Supported scalar fields: `max_complexity`, `preset`, `verbose`

#### Set Value (set)

```bash
# Set complexity limit
linthis config set max_complexity 15
linthis config set max_complexity 30 -g

# Set format preset (google, standard, airbnb)
linthis config set preset google
linthis config set preset airbnb --global

# Set verbose output
linthis config set verbose true
linthis config set verbose false -g
```

#### Unset Value (unset)

```bash
# Remove field from project config
linthis config unset max_complexity
linthis config unset preset

# Remove field from global config
linthis config unset -g verbose
linthis config unset --global max_complexity
```

### Query Operations

#### Get Single Field Value (get)

```bash
# View project config field
linthis config get includes
linthis config get max_complexity
linthis config get preset

# View global config field
linthis config get -g excludes
linthis config get --global languages
```

#### List All Configuration (list)

```bash
# List project config
linthis config list

# List global config
linthis config list -g
linthis config list --global

# Verbose mode (show all fields including empty values)
linthis config list -v
linthis config list --verbose
linthis config list --global --verbose
```

### Configuration Management Examples

```bash
# Initialize project config
linthis config add includes "src/**"
linthis config add includes "lib/**"
linthis config add excludes "target/**"
linthis config add excludes "*.log"
linthis config add languages "rust"
linthis config add languages "python"
linthis config set max_complexity 20
linthis config set preset google

# View config
linthis config list

# Adjust config
linthis config set max_complexity 15
linthis config remove excludes "*.log"
linthis config add excludes "*.tmp"

# Set global defaults
linthis config set -g max_complexity 20
linthis config add -g excludes "node_modules/**"
linthis config add -g excludes ".git/**"
```

### Configuration Migration

linthis can automatically detect and migrate existing linter/formatter configurations to linthis format.

#### Supported Tools

| Tool     | Detected Files                                                                                                         |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| ESLint   | `.eslintrc.js`, `.eslintrc.json`, `.eslintrc.yml`, `.eslintrc`, `eslint.config.js`, `package.json[eslintConfig]`       |
| Prettier | `.prettierrc`, `.prettierrc.json`, `.prettierrc.yml`, `.prettierrc.js`, `prettier.config.js`, `package.json[prettier]` |
| Black    | `pyproject.toml[tool.black]`                                                                                           |
| isort    | `pyproject.toml[tool.isort]`                                                                                           |

#### Migration Commands

```bash
# Auto-detect and migrate all configs
linthis config migrate

# Migrate specific tool only
linthis config migrate --from eslint
linthis config migrate --from prettier
linthis config migrate --from black
linthis config migrate --from isort

# Preview changes without applying
linthis config migrate --dry-run

# Create backup of original files
linthis config migrate --backup

# Verbose output
linthis config migrate --verbose
```

#### Migration Output

Migrated configurations are placed in `.linthis/configs/{language}/`:

- ESLint → `.linthis/configs/javascript/.eslintrc.js`
- Prettier → `.linthis/configs/javascript/prettierrc.js`
- Black/isort → `.linthis/configs/python/ruff.toml`

### Initialize Configuration File

Use the `init` subcommand to explicitly create configuration files:

```bash
# Create project config (.linthis/config.toml)
linthis init

# Create global config (~/.linthis/config.toml)
linthis init -g
linthis init --global

# Backward compatible: can also use --init flag
linthis --init
```

### Auto-Create Configuration Files

When using the `config` command, configuration files are automatically created if they don't exist:

- **Project Config**: Creates `.linthis/config.toml` in current directory
- **Global Config**: Creates `config.toml` in `~/.linthis/` directory

All modifications preserve TOML file format and comments.

**Hook types**:

- `git`: Traditional git hook (default)
- `git-with-agent`: git hook + AI agent auto-fix on failure
- `agent`: AI agent hook (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
- `prek`: Rust-based pre-commit tool (faster)
- `prek-with-agent`: prek hook + AI agent auto-fix on failure
- `pre-commit`: Python-based standard tool
- `pre-commit-with-agent`: pre-commit hook + AI agent auto-fix on failure

**Global hooks**: Use `-g` / `--global` with any hook type. For `agent` type, installs rules to the user home directory. For all other types, installs to `~/.config/git/hooks/` and sets `git config --global core.hooksPath`. Local hooks take priority over global hooks (Strategy B).

<video src="docs/assets/videos/AgentHook-en.mp4" controls width="100%"></video>

**Hook events**:

- `pre-commit`: Run before commit (default, checks staged files)
- `pre-push`: Run before push (checks all files)
- `commit-msg`: Validate commit message format (calls `linthis cmsg "$1"`)

### cmsg Subcommand

Validate commit message format directly — without going through a hook.

| Command | Description |
| ------- | ----------- |
| `cmsg <msg-or-file>` | Validate a commit message string or file path |

```bash
# Validate a message string directly
linthis cmsg "feat: add new feature"
linthis cmsg "fix(api): handle null response"

# Validate from a file (git hook usage)
linthis cmsg .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG

# Install the commit-msg hook (calls `linthis cmsg "$1"` automatically)
linthis hook install --event commit-msg
```

The default format follows [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/):
`type(scope)?: description` — where `type` is one of `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `perf`, `test`, `build`, `ci`, `chore`, `revert`.

The pattern is configurable via `.linthis/config.toml`:

```toml
[cmsg]
commit_msg_pattern = "^(feat|fix|docs|...)\\(\\S+\\)?: .{1,72}"
```

## Usage Scenarios

### Pre-commit Hook

#### Method 1: Using prek (Recommended for Teams)

[prek](https://prek.j178.dev) is a high-performance Git hooks manager written in Rust, fully compatible with pre-commit config format but much faster.

Install prek:

```bash
# Using cargo
cargo install prek

# Or using pip
pip install prek
```

Create `.pre-commit-config.yaml` in your project:

```yaml
# .pre-commit-config.yaml
repos:
  - repo: local
    hooks:
      - id: linthis
        name: linthis
        entry: linthis --staged --check-only
        language: system
        pass_filenames: false
```

Install hook:

```bash
prek install
```

#### Method 2: Traditional Git Hook (Project-level)

Add to `.git/hooks/pre-commit`:

```bash
#!/bin/sh
linthis --staged --check-only
```

Or use linthis to create it automatically:

```bash
linthis hook install --type git
```

#### Method 3: Using pre-commit Framework

Using the [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) framework:

```yaml
# .pre-commit-config.yaml
repos:
  - repo: local
    hooks:
      - id: linthis
        name: linthis
        entry: linthis --staged --check-only
        language: system
        pass_filenames: false
```

### CI/CD Integration

#### GitHub Actions

```yaml
name: Lint

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: Install linthis
        run: pip install linthis
      - name: Run linthis
        run: linthis --check-only --output github-actions
```

#### GitLab CI

```yaml
lint:
  image: rust:latest
  script:
    - cargo install linthis
    - linthis --check-only
```

## Creating Custom Plugins

### 1. Initialize Plugin

```bash
linthis plugin init my-company-standards
cd my-company-standards
```

### 2. Edit Plugin Configuration

Edit `linthis-plugin.toml`:

```toml
[plugin]
name = "my-company-standards"
version = "1.0.0"
description = "My company's coding standards"

["language.python"]
config_count = 2

["language.python".tools.flake8]
priority = "P0"
files = [".flake8"]

["language.python".tools.black]
priority = "P1"
files = ["pyproject.toml"]
```

### 3. Add Configuration Files

```bash
mkdir -p python
# Add your config files to corresponding language directories
cp /path/to/.flake8 python/
cp /path/to/pyproject.toml python/
```

### 4. Publish to Git

```bash
git init
git add .
git commit -m "feat: Initial commit of my company coding standards"
git remote add origin git@github.com:mycompany/linthis-standards.git
git push -u origin main
```

### 5. Use Your Plugin

```bash
linthis plugin add company https://github.com/mycompany/linthis-standards.git
linthis  # Plugin configs are auto-loaded
```

## FAQ

### Q: How to specify multiple paths?

```bash
linthis -i src -i lib -i tests
```

### Q: How to check only specific file types?

```bash
linthis -l python  # Only check Python files
```

### Q: Where is the plugin cache?

- macOS: `~/Library/Caches/linthis/plugins`
- Linux: `~/.cache/linthis/plugins`
- Windows: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\linthis\cache\plugins`

### Q: How to update plugins?

```bash
linthis plugin sync          # Sync local plugins
linthis plugin sync --global # Sync global plugins
```

### Q: What is the plugin Git reference (ref) used for?

The ref can specify:

- Branch name: `--ref main`
- Tag: `--ref v1.0.0`
- Commit hash: `--ref abc1234`

This allows you to lock plugin versions or use development versions.
