Rename the job to "Python lint (syntax + ruff + safety nets)" and
expand it from one non-blocking ruff invocation over studio/backend
into four real gates over the whole tree. Total CI time goes from
~8 s to ~12 s, but the previous job was informational; this one
blocks merges on actual breakage.
Steps (in order):
1. AST/syntax (HARD GATE)
`python -m compileall -q -j 0 unsloth unsloth_cli studio tests
cli.py unsloth-cli.py`. Same parser the interpreter uses;
anything broken here would also crash at `import X` on a user's
machine. ~3.5 s across 350+ files locally.
2. ruff check whole repo (HARD GATE)
The narrow rule set in pyproject.toml [tool.ruff.lint] (E9 /
F63 / F7 / F82) catches undefined names, broken comparisons,
and syntax. The whole repo passes today, so the previous
studio/backend-only `|| true` was masking real breakage on
the wider tree. <1 s.
3. Debugger-leftover scan (HARD GATE)
AST-walk over every committed .py looking for `breakpoint()`,
`pdb.set_trace()`, or `ipdb.set_trace()` call sites. AST-based
so commented-out debugger lines don't false-positive (which
is why a bare grep would not work -- there are three commented
`# breakpoint()` markers in unsloth/models/rl* today). 0 hits
locally across 350 files.
4. SPDX-License-Identifier on studio/backend (WARNING)
Surfaces drift in the one tree where we already have a strict
SPDX policy. Currently 3 files missing; warned, not blocked,
so the rollout can be a separate PR.
5. ruff format drift (INFO)
Counts files that would be reformatted by plain `ruff format`.
Non-blocking because the canonical formatter is
scripts/run_ruff_format.py = ruff format + the kwarg-spacing
pass, so plain `ruff format --check` always reports a large
diff. Once that custom pipeline is wired in, drop
continue-on-error and add it to the gate.
ruff is pinned to 0.15.12 to match .pre-commit-config.yaml so a
CI-only ruff bump cannot start disagreeing with what pre-commit
already accepted.
