Build plugin/config relocation
ESLint flat config global ignores config object only ignores directories official docs
Generated files suddenly enter lint scope or source files become ignored.
Agent Quick Fix
Repair against the current ESLint contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.
Product: ESLint
Current-contract area: Global ignores translated incorrectly
Likely root cause: Generated files suddenly enter lint scope or source files become ignored.
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.
Symptom
Generated files suddenly enter lint scope or source files become ignored.
Why This Happens
The old package/config name is syntactically valid, but current tool packaging and discovery rules live in external release documentation.
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.
