Agent Quick Fix

The old package/config name is syntactically valid, but current tool packaging and discovery rules live in external release documentation.

Product: ESLint
Current-contract area: Legacy CLI option removed under flat config
Likely root cause: CI fails on an option that remained accepted in older majors.
Repair direction: Verifier checks the current package identity/config format and a real transformed output. Check the exact intended lint findings, not merely process exit 0.

Validation Status

Why This Happens

The old package/config name is syntactically valid, but current tool packaging and discovery rules live in external release documentation.

Verification

Verifier checks the current package identity/config format and a real transformed output. Check the exact intended lint findings, not merely process exit 0.

Common Wrong Fixes

Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
