eslint-plugin-llm-core

Monorepo for eslint-plugin-llm-core and companion tooling for applying the same rule guidance through ESLint, MCP, and quality-gate workflows.

Packages

Package	Published name	Use it when
packages/eslint-plugin	eslint-plugin-llm-core	You want ESLint rules and generated agent instructions in a project.
packages/mcp-server	eslint-plugin-llm-core-mcp	You want an MCP-capable agent to request just-in-time lint guidance.
packages/quality-cli	llm-core-quality	You want one CLI that runs ESLint and Knip with text, JSON, or SARIF output.

The ESLint plugin is the core package. The MCP server and quality CLI depend on it so they can reuse the same rule metadata, generated instructions, and lint messages.

Versioning

This repository uses Changesets. Packages are published independently, but some changes require coordinated releases:

• Rule metadata or generated-instruction changes usually affect eslint-plugin-llm-core.
• MCP behavior that depends on current rule metadata may require changesets for both eslint-plugin-llm-core and eslint-plugin-llm-core-mcp.
• Quality CLI changes usually affect only llm-core-quality unless they depend on a new plugin capability.
