/edikt:sync

Translate linter configs into Claude rule packs — so Claude enforces the same standards your linter does.

Usage

/edikt:sync              ← sync all detected linter configs
/edikt:sync golangci     ← sync only golangci-lint rules
/edikt:sync eslint       ← sync only ESLint rules
/edikt:sync ruff         ← sync only Ruff rules
/edikt:sync rubocop      ← sync only RuboCop rules
/edikt:sync biome        ← sync only Biome rules
/edikt:sync --dry-run    ← preview what would be generated

Arguments

Argument	Description
(none)	Detect all linters and sync rules for all found
golangci or go	Sync only golangci-lint rules
eslint	Sync only ESLint rules
ruff or python	Sync only Ruff rules
rubocop or ruby	Sync only RuboCop rules
biome	Sync only Biome rules
--dry-run	Show what would be generated without writing files
{linter} --dry-run	Preview output for a specific linter only

What it does

Reads your existing linter configs (golangci-lint, ESLint, Ruff, RuboCop, Biome, PHP CS Fixer) and generates .claude/rules/linter-*.md files that teach Claude the same rules — with plain-English explanations of why each rule exists.

The result: Claude writes code that passes your linter on the first attempt, not after several correction rounds.

Supported linters

Linter	Config file
golangci-lint	.golangci-lint.yaml, .golangci.yaml
ESLint	.eslintrc*, eslint.config.*
Ruff	ruff.toml, pyproject.toml [tool.ruff]
RuboCop	.rubocop.yml
Biome	biome.json
PHP CS Fixer	.php-cs-fixer.php, .php-cs-fixer.dist.php

Monorepo support

In monorepos with per-package linter configs, edikt generates scoped rules with path prefixes so the right rules apply to the right directories.

Generated file format

When to run

• After adding or changing a linter config
• After running /edikt:init on an established project (it runs sync automatically)
• When /edikt:doctor warns "linter config changed since last sync"

Natural language triggers

• "sync linter rules"
• "update Claude with our lint config"
• "translate our linter config"
