DeviceTree Config Audit: 23 dtc-Style Rules, 50 Snippets

Runs the same checker as our npm package on a Node.js runtime that pip installs for you (nodejs-wheel-binaries) - no system Node.js needed. Your files are checked locally.

status = "ok" compiles clean and the node never appears. 23 rules over 7 config languages, on the file you have open.

Install

devicetree-config-language-pack file

Node 18+. The same 23 rules as the VS Code extension, from a terminal or CI.

Free

• Every one of the 23 rules and all 50 snippets run on the file you have open, with line numbers in the output panel - no licence key, no account, no network call and no build context. Nothing is watermarked and nothing expires.
• --rules lists every rule

With a licence ($29 once)

• Scale, a handover file, and repetition - never a rule. The same 23 rules across every file in the workspace in one pass; the findings written into the repo as CSV, JSON or HTML to attach to a review or a bring-up checklist; a toggle that re-runs the check on every save; and a counted fix list of the lines that carry a documented correct value.

A freelance embedded software engineer bills about $103/hour (contractrates.fyi, 2026); a staff embedded firmware engineer's hour averages $58.66 in the US (ZipRecruiter, June 2026). One node silently dropped from a build costs an afternoon at the bench. The pack is $29 - under half an hour at either rate.
