Biome is a web-development toolchain that formats and checks source code for languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, and CSS. Developers use its command-line and language-server interfaces to maintain code quality in web projects. Catalogue add-ons extend workflows around the toolchain.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00047 | $0.00820 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00328 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00164 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00082 |
Grade A, and why
promote-lint-rules scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 22d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Promote Lint Rules
Use the batch promotion task instead of invoking just move-rule repeatedly.
Build the Manifest
- Read the complete requirements. For a GitHub issue, read both its body and comments.
- Verify every listed current rule exists under a
crates/biome_*_analyze/src/lint/nursery/directory. - Resolve incomplete or malformed requirements before editing. Do not infer missing group, recommendation, severity, or rename decisions from neighboring rows.
- Create a temporary JSON file outside the repository, such as
/tmp/biome-rule-promotions.json.
The top-level object maps each current lower-camel-case rule name to its final stable metadata:
{
"noCurrentRule": {
"group": "correctness",
"recommended": true,
"severity": "error",
"newName": "noRenamedRule"
},
"useAnotherRule": {
"group": "style",
"recommended": false
}
}
Fields:
groupis required and must bea11y,complexity,correctness,performance,security,style, orsuspicious.recommendedis optional. Include it when the requirements specify the final recommendation status; bothtrueandfalseare meaningful.severityis optional. Accepted values areinfo,warn, anderror. Include it when the requirements specify a new final severity.newNameis optional. Omit it when the rule keeps its current name.
Use current names as object keys, even when newName is present. A rule implemented by multiple analyzers, such as matching JavaScript and HTML rules, needs only one entry.
Apply the Plan
Run the task once:
just promote-rules /tmp/biome-rule-promotions.json
The task validates the complete manifest before moving files. It updates declarations, diagnostic categories, fixture option files, rule-option modules, and the migration rename table as applicable. It does not regenerate derived files or snapshots.
Inspect the move before generation:
git status --short
git diff --stat
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

promote-lint-rules is a skill published in the GitHub repository biomejs/biome (26,016 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 820 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-07.
