ks-scrutiny 3.1.3

Unified code quality orchestration; linters, formatters, type checkers, and security analyzers in one CLI

Scrutiny

Unified code quality orchestration for Python projects.

Scrutiny runs Ruff (formatter + linter), Mypy, Radon, and Bandit in a single command with tiered strictness, automatic pyproject.toml generation, context-aware defaults, and structured logging. Configure once, enforce everywhere.

Installation

# All tools
pip install ks-scrutiny[all]

# Specific tools only
pip install ks-scrutiny[ruff,mypy]

# Core package only (install tools separately)
pip install ks-scrutiny

pyproject.toml Management

Scrutiny automatically generates or merges your pyproject.toml on every run by default (--generate-config is enabled). If no pyproject.toml exists, it creates one from templates. If one already exists, it merges non-destructively — only adding missing keys while preserving everything you've already set.

Managed sections: [tool.ruff], [tool.mypy], [tool.bandit]

All other tool sections (pytest, coverage, black, isort, etc.) are never touched.

Scenario	Default (merge)	With --override-config
Key exists in your file	Preserved	Replaced with generated
Key missing from your file	Added	Added
Unmanaged tool sections	Untouched	Untouched

Generated settings are tier-aware — the rules, strictness, and thresholds written to your config match your selected tier (essential, standard, strict, or insane).

By default, --override-config and --include-test-config are disabled. Use --override-config to replace entire managed sections with generated values, and --include-test-config to also generate [tool.pytest.ini_options] and [tool.coverage.*] sections.

Quick Start

# Run with strict tier (default)
scrutiny

# Run on a specific directory
scrutiny src/

# Essential tier (core correctness only)
scrutiny --essential

# Check tool availability
scrutiny --doctor

Configuration Tiers

Tier	Description	Use Case
--essential	Core correctness only	Legacy codebases, quick checks
--standard	Quality + correctness	Production-ready code
--strict	Maximum rigor (default)	Enforced style and best practices
--insane	Every rule enabled	Bulletproof but noisy

Each tier includes all rules from the tier below it.

CLI Flags (Summary)

Flag	Description
--tool ruff|mypy|radon|bandit	Run only specified tool(s)
--fix / --check-only	Enable/disable auto-fix
--parallel / --no-parallel	Parallel tool execution
--generate-config	Create/merge pyproject.toml
--show-config	Display effective configuration
--doctor	Check tool availability
-q / -v / --detailed	Output verbosity
