Statix, deadnix, nixfmt, treefmt, nom, and nix-instantiate require manual orchestration to lint and format Nix code; this skill provides a consolidated guide to perform Nix linting, formatting, and static analysis consistently across projects.
Run statix check . to begin linting your Nix project.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Run statix check . to identify style issues and anti-patterns, then use deadnix to detect unused code, applying the --edit flag for automated cleanup across your Nix project.
The best way to format Nix code is using nixfmt as the canonical formatter, orchestrated with treefmt-nix to run multiple formatters in a single pass and ensure consistent code style across the project.
Integrate Nix linting into pre-commit hooks using devenv, and apply the provided CI guidelines to automate format checks, run statix and deadnix, and evaluate builds within your CI workflows.
Yes, you can use nix-instantiate to parse and evaluate Nix expressions for syntax validation, and run nix flake check to perform flake-level evaluation and checks for static analysis.
Yes, treefmt-nix supports multi-formatter orchestration to run formatters like nixfmt and linters like statix together, and you can further customize statix behavior using a statix.toml configuration file.
