ESLint

Quick start

tinkerise add eslint

What it detects

The eslint module treats the enhancement as installed when it finds any ESLint config file or an eslintConfig key in package.json.

Detection includes both flat and legacy file names:

eslint.config.js|mjs|cjs|ts
.eslintrc.js|cjs|json|yml|yaml

What it installs

eslint always installs:

eslint
@eslint/js
globals

It conditionally installs:

typescript-eslint when TypeScript is already present
eslint-plugin-react for next, react, and remix
eslint-plugin-vue for vue and nuxt
eslint-plugin-svelte for svelte
eslint-plugin-astro for astro

Generated config behavior

The generated flat config is framework-aware and includes:

@eslint/js recommended rules
TypeScript rules when TypeScript is detected
Browser + Node globals from globals
Framework plugin config blocks when a supported framework is detected

File and config changes

Writes eslint.config.js for "type": "module" projects
Writes eslint.config.mjs for non-module projects
Adds a lint script: eslint .

Expected outcome after tinkerise add eslint:

ESLint config file at project root
New dev dependencies for your runtime/framework
package.json contains a working lint script

Conflict handling

If ESLint config already exists, the executor treats it as a conflict. Interactive runs can show a diff and let you accept or skip changes.
