What problem does it solve?

Provides a structured approach to validate the correctness and consistency of Lua mutation targets and meta files by orchestrating two specialized tools: Meta-Lint and Mutation Edge Check.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Meta-Lint (Python): enforces 306 rules across 20 categories to validate object structure, naming, GUIDs, references, and cross-file integrity in src/meta/.
• Mutation Edge Check (Lua): scans all Lua files under src/meta/ to extract mutation edges and verify that target files exist, preventing broken mutations.
• Full Pipeline: supports running both tools in sequence for pre-commit gates and CI validations.
• Use Case: Before PRs touching meta definitions, run the pipeline to catch structural and edge-case issues early.

Quick Start

Run the full mutation-lint pipeline to validate all meta targets before committing.
