Adds wildlint under Linters → General, beside flake8-bugbear (same niche: bug classes the base linters miss).
wildlint is a precision linter for bug classes off-the-shelf linters (ruff/flake8/pylint) don't cover — the kind that look like ordinary, working code:
destis never read)str.replace(prefix, "")meant asremoveprefix/removesuffixs[-k]→IndexErrormillify(999999)→'1000k')Each rule is distilled from a real upstream fix (provenance-pinned), so the default tier is near-silent on mature, heavily-linted codebases (django/click/flask) by design — it's a low-false-positive tool, not a high-recall scanner. Cross-language: Python, JS, TS, Go, Rust (via ast-grep).
Happy to move it to a different section if there's a better fit. Thanks for curating this list.
