Style Enforcement

Validate code files against configured style rules from project configuration files.

Triggers

check style compliance
validate editorconfig rules
run style enforcement
check naming conventions
validate line endings

Quick Start

# Check all files in current directory
python3 scripts/check_style.py --target .

# Check only changed files (CI mode)
python3 scripts/check_style.py --git-staged

# Check specific files
python3 scripts/check_style.py src/models/user.cs src/services/auth.cs

# JSON output for automation
python3 scripts/check_style.py --target . --format json --output violations.json

Evidence

Created based on analysis of moq.analyzers closed PR reviewer patterns:

9.8% of human reviewer feedback (11 of 112 comments) addressed naming/style conventions
Common patterns: line endings (CRLF vs LF), naming conventions (FooAsync), style guide violations
Examples: "Use lf not crlf", "Should be named FooAsync", "Conflicting style rules"

Configuration Sources

The skill reads style configuration from these files (in priority order):

File	Purpose	Scope
`.editorconfig`	EditorConfig standard	All languages
`.stylecop.json` / `stylecop.json`	StyleCop Analyzers rules	C#
`Directory.Build.props`	MSBuild properties	.NET projects

.editorconfig Properties Checked

Property	Values	Languages
`end_of_line`	lf, crlf, cr	All
`indent_style`	space, tab	All
`indent_size`	number	All
`charset`	utf-8, utf-8-bom, latin1	All
`trim_trailing_whitespace`	true, false	All
`insert_final_newline`	true, false	All

.editorconfig Naming Conventions (C#)

# Example naming rules
dotnet_naming_rule.async_methods_should_end_with_async.symbols = async_methods
dotnet_naming_rule.async_methods_should_end_with_async.style = async_suffix_style
dotnet_naming_rule.async_methods_should_end_with_async.severity = warning

dotnet_naming_style.async_suffix_style.required_suffix = Async

Detection Capabilities

Line Ending Violations

Detects when file line endings differ from .editorconfig end_of_line setting.

Rule: STYLE-001
Severity: warning
Example: "File uses CRLF but editorconfig requires LF"

Indentation Violations

Detects tabs vs spaces mismatches and incorrect indent sizes.

Rule: STYLE-002
Severity: warning
Example: "Line uses tabs but editorconfig requires spaces (indent_size=4)"

Charset Violations

Detects incorrect file encoding (BOM presence/absence).

Rule: STYLE-003
Severity: warning
Example: "File has UTF-8 BOM but editorconfig requires utf-8 (no BOM)"

Trailing Whitespace

Detects trailing whitespace when trim_trailing_whitespace = true.

Rule: STYLE-004
Severity: info
Example: "Line 42 has trailing whitespace"

Final Newline

Detects missing final newline when insert_final_newline = true.

Rule: STYLE-005
Severity: info
Example: "File does not end with newline"

Naming Convention Violations (C#)

Detects async method naming when dotnet_naming_rule configured.

Rule: STYLE-010
Severity: warning
Example: "Async method 'GetUser' should end with 'Async' suffix"

Process

┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 1. Configuration Discovery              │
│    - Walk up from target to find root   │
│    - Parse .editorconfig hierarchy      │
│    - Parse .stylecop.json if present    │
│    - Parse Directory.Build.props        │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 2. Rule Compilation                     │
│    - Match globs to file extensions     │
│    - Build per-file rule set            │
│    - Merge inherited properties         │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 3. File Scanning                        │
│    - Check each file against its rules  │
│    - Detect violations with line info   │
│    - Apply suppression comments         │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ 4. Report Generation                    │
│    - Format: markdown, JSON, or SARIF   │
│    - Include violation counts           │

Agent Pre-Submission

Before creating a PR, run style enforcement:

python3 .claude/skills/style-enforcement/scripts/check_style.py --git-staged

If exit code is 10, fix violations before proceeding.

Examples

Example 1: Check Single File

python3 scripts/check_style.py src/models/User.cs

Output:

Style Enforcement Report
========================

Violations: 2

src/models/User.cs
  Line 1: [STYLE-001] File uses CRLF but editorconfig requires LF
  Line 45: [STYLE-010] Async method 'GetUser' should end with 'Async' suffix

Exit code: 10 (violations detected)

Example 2: JSON Output for CI

python3 scripts/check_style.py --target . --format json

{
  "scan_timestamp": "2026-02-08T10:30:00Z",
  "files_scanned": 42,
  "violations": [
    {
      "file": "src/models/User.cs",
      "line": 1,
      "column": 1,
      "rule": "STYLE-001",
      "message": "File uses CRLF but editorconfig requires LF",
      "severity": "warning"
    }
  ],
  "summary": {
    "total": 1,
    "by_severity": {"warning": 1}
  }
}

Example 3: SARIF for GitHub Code Scanning

python3 scripts/check_style.py --target . --format sarif --output results.sarif

Suppression

Suppress specific violations with inline comments:

// style-enforcement: ignore STYLE-001
var data = GetData();  // CRLF line ending allowed here

# style-enforcement: ignore STYLE-002
 pass  # Tab indentation allowed here

When to Use

Use this skill when:

Checking style compliance before commits
Enforcing consistent code formatting in CI
Validating editorconfig rules are applied correctly
Detecting naming convention violations

Use existing linters instead when:

Full ESLint/Prettier rules needed (JavaScript)
Full StyleCop Analyzer output needed (C#, use dotnet build)
Auto-formatting is desired (use dotnet format, black, prettier)

Language Support

Fully Supported

Language	Extensions	Naming Rules
C#	.cs	Async suffix, interface prefix
Python	.py	snake_case validation
PowerShell	.ps1, .psm1	Verb-Noun validation
JavaScript/TypeScript	.js, .ts, .jsx, .tsx	camelCase validation

Basic Support (line endings, indentation, charset)

Go (.go)
Rust (.rs)
Java (.java)
Ruby (.rb)
Markdown (.md)
YAML (.yml, .yaml)
JSON (.json)

Anti-Patterns

Avoid	Why	Instead
Running without .editorconfig	No rules to enforce	Create .editorconfig first
Ignoring all violations	Defeats purpose	Fix root causes, suppress sparingly
Checking generated files	False positives	Add to .gitignore or ignore patterns
Mixing with auto-formatters	Conflicts	Run formatter first, then check

Verification

After running style check:

.editorconfig parsed successfully
Violations include file:line:rule format
Exit code matches violation count (0 vs 10)
Suppression comments honored
SARIF output validates (if used)

Timelessness: 8/10

EditorConfig is an industry standard (2012+) supported by all major editors and IDEs. Style conventions (naming, indentation, line endings) are fundamental to code quality. The skill delegates language-specific rules to external analyzers when available.
