Lint Init
Initialize any repository with comprehensive lint rules and code quality tooling. Covers cyclomatic complexity, function/file length limits, parameter counts, type safety, code duplication, test coverage, and folder file-count limits. Supports TypeScript, Go, Python, Rust, and Java. Use this skill whenever the user asks to set up lint rules, initialize code quality checks, configure a linter, or bootstrap a new repo with quality gates — even if they don't say "lint" explicitly (e.g., "set up this repo", "add quality checks", "configure eslint/golangci-lint/ruff"). Also trigger when the user says /lint-init.
From the source SKILL.md
Set up a complete code-quality gate system for a repository. The skill walks through an interactive interview, picks the right tools for the language, generates all config files, installs dependencies, and verifies everything passes.
What this skill does
