lint_tonel_smalltalk
AI agents call lint_tonel_smalltalk to retrieve information from Smalltalk Validator without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Linting is a static analysis activity that examines source code for style and quality issues without modifying or executing the code. This is a Read operation with low severity since it only retrieves or reports information about code structure.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'lint_tonel_smalltalk' with 'lint' prefix indicates static code analysis/validation. Sibling tools include 'validate_*' and 'lint_*_from_file' variants, all consistent with read-only linting/validation operations.
