Summary

R007 (no-scripts-with-justfile) is currently a strict-only warning. Adopting
repositories run the baseline profile with fail-on: error, so a repository
that adds a [scripts] entry duplicating its justfile produces a warning the
default gate discards — the rule cannot prevent the recurrence it exists for.

Promote it to error and add it to baseline.

Why this is safe now

Per-entry judging is already merged: an entry is reported only when it forwards
to the justfile (just <recipe> / vx just <recipe>) or when its key names a
recipe that exists in the justfile. Every finding is therefore a task defined
twice, with no judgement call to defer — the same standard R001–R005 already
hold.

An entry the justfile does not provide is untouched. A repository whose
justfile has no build recipe can keep build-ue = "..." depending on [env],
and a repository whose [scripts] runs uvx nox where the justfile has no
nox recipe is fine. No legitimate entry point is lost.

Each entry is reported separately with its line, so the annotation names the
duplicated task:

::error file=vx.toml:5,title=Repo contract R007::R007 no-scripts-with-justfile: [scripts] lint = 'just lint' duplicates `justfile`: forwards to `lint`; ...

Changes

  • contract/repo_contract.json — R007: warn → error, ["strict"] → ["baseline", "strict"].
  • docs/repo-contract.md — severity table row, the adoption example, and the R007 remediation guidance.
  • tests/test_repo_contract.py — R007 tests assert exit 1; the baseline profile test now expects six rules. Added a --warn-rule R007 case covering the demotion path.

scripts/check_repo_contract.py is unchanged: severity and profiles are data in
the contract.

On the skip-rules escape hatch

skip-rules: "R007" takes the whole rule out of the plan — R007 has no
per-entry exemption today. Skipping for one unmigrated entry also stops R007
from reporting any other duplicate in that repository, present or added later.

Preferred order when R007 fires:

  1. Delete the duplicate — the justfile copy is the one that runs.
  2. If the task cannot be migrated, check the callers first; prefer renaming the
    entry so it no longer collides with a justfile recipe. Deleting a
    name-collision entry also removes its [scripts] command (vx run <name>),
    so rename before delete when the entry is a real command.
  3. Only if neither is possible, treat skip-rules: "R007" as a full-rule
    disable: evaluate it as such and register expiry conditions for it.

Validation

  • python -m unittest discover -s tests — 313 tests, all pass.
  • Self-check on this repository, strict profile: 0 errors, 2 pre-existing R006 warnings, exit 0.
  • Negative case: a justfile with no [scripts] passes baseline.
  • Positive case: adding [scripts] lint = "just lint" fails baseline with exit 1 and an ::error file=vx.toml:5 annotation.
  • No-false-positive case: [scripts] build-ue with a justfile that has no build-ue recipe passes baseline, exit 0.

R007 was a `strict`-only warning. Adopting repositories run the
`baseline` profile with `fail-on: error`, so a repository that added a
[scripts] entry duplicating its justfile produced a warning the default
gate discarded -- the rule could not prevent the recurrence it was
written for.

Promote it to `error` and add it to `baseline`. This is safe because
per-entry judging (already merged) means every finding is a task defined
twice, with no judgement call to defer: an entry that forwards to the
justfile or shadows a justfile recipe is duplicate by construction, the
same standard R001-R005 already hold. An entry the justfile does not
provide is untouched, so no legitimate entry point is lost.

No checker change: severity and profiles are data in the contract.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

R007 now has error severity in both the baseline and strict profiles. Tests cover failures under both profiles and baseline warning demotion. Documentation describes the rule, its rollout, and how to record an R007 skip.

Changes

R007 enforcement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Set and validate R007 severity
contract/repo_contract.json, tests/test_repo_contract.py, docs/repo-contract.md
R007 is an error in both profiles. Tests expect findings to fail by default and verify baseline passes when --warn-rule R007 demotes the finding. Documentation updates the rollout explanation, adds guidance on removing duplicate script entries and recording skips, and removes R007 from the adoption example’s error-rules list.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4ec3e

Repositories that rely on vx run <name> for a name-collision entry may lose that command if they follow the deletion guidance without migrating callers. This is a bounded documentation and migration risk.

Update the rollout description for R007.

Lines 39-42 still say that only the first five rules run as mechanical baseline rules and that the last six start in strict. R007 now runs as a baseline error. Update that paragraph so adopters do not rely on an incorrect profile description.

R007 is now an error on the baseline profile, and its opt-out guidance
described an exemption that does not exist. skip-rules removes the whole
rule from the plan, so presenting it as a per-entry escape hatch would
silently stop R007 reporting every other duplicate in the repository,
including any added later.

- State that skip-rules takes the whole rule off the plan, that no
  per-entry exemption exists for R007, and record it as a decision with
  an exit condition. Lead with deleting the duplicate instead.
- Sync the rollout paragraph with the table: the mechanical set is now
  R001-R005 plus R007.
- Drop R007 from the error-rules example; both profiles are already
  error, so listing it is a no-op that implies it still needs promoting.

Comment thread docs/repo-contract.md Outdated
The previous wording claimed removing a mirrored [scripts] entry loses
nothing. That is wrong for both R007 triggers: vx run <name> is itself an
entry point, and the name-collision branch fires on the key alone, so an
entry can be an independent command rather than a copy of the recipe.

Tell the reader to check callers and migrate them to just <name> before
deleting, and to prefer renaming a name-collision entry that is not a copy
of the recipe.
