# Static analysis

Select, run, and triage C/C++ static analysis: clang-tidy, cppcheck, and scan-build. Grounded against LLVM/Clang 23.1.0 and cppcheck 2.21.0.

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | The task runs or configures clang-tidy, cppcheck, or scan-build, interprets check categories, suppresses false positives, generates `compile_commands.json`, or wires static analysis into CI. |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes only `.clang-tidy`, suppression comments, source files (through `-fix`), and analysis reports; rollback is version control. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | `clang-tidy -fix` edits source files in place; analyzers read the compilation database. |
| Done | The analyzer runs over the intended translation units and findings are triaged into fixed, suppressed with reason, or reported. |
