Conservative fixes #

Preview a supported rewrite before changing an instruction. Most findings require a human to supply the missing intent, scope, or constraint.

lintlang scan AGENTS.md --fix --dry-run

The released fixer accepts one explicit .md, .txt, or .prompt file and terminal output only. It supports only a direct standalone Don't be verbose (including a curly apostrophe) as the first body line after a file-leading top-level # Instructions heading and blanks. Other headings, preambles, and malformed scope fail closed. H1/H2 inference, security negatives, priority rules, and cross-file conflicts remain manual.

After reviewing the exact diff, opt into writing and an original-byte backup:

lintlang scan AGENTS.md --fix --backup

The backup is FILE.lintlang.bak; existing backups are never overwritten. Keep the diff in version control and rerun a normal scan. This narrow rewrite does not establish semantic equivalence for arbitrary instructions. See the release implementation.
