keep files in line$ linecop --- src/handlers/api.rs: 612 lines (limit: 500, +112 over) --- src/models/schema.rs: 534 lines (limit: 500, +34 over) 2 file(s) exceed size limits (+146 lines over). Consider refactoring.
$ linecop All files within size limits.
Powered by tokei, LineCop recognizes 200+ languages. Set limits per language — 500 lines for Rust, 200 for Markdown, 400 for Python.
Count total lines, code-only, or code + comments. Choose the mode that matches your team’s conventions.
Need a higher limit for generated files? Exclude vendor code? Per-file glob patterns let you fine-tune enforcement.
Run linecop schema to get a JSON Schema for your config. Editor auto-completion in VS Code, Zed, and more.
Use --quiet --format json for machine-readable output. Non-zero exit code on violations, perfect for CI gates.
Run linecop init to generate a starter .linecop.yaml with sensible defaults. Tweak from there.
