Developer toolsJavaScript#ai#cli#code-quality#code-review#devtools

3.4 Early signal Magnitude out of 10. Star growth looks organic. Data as of September 18, 2026.

About the project

CLI linter that finds semantic defects in code (wrong call order, inverted conditions, off-by-one) and ranks them by probability. Supports custom rules in perch.yaml and integration with agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor).

Useful for

Run perch scan in CI to gate the build on detected defects
Write a custom rule in perch.yaml, e.g. banning process.env reads inside methods
Wire perch into Claude Code or Cursor via perch setup for agent code review

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
