10. **Type the JSON in TypeScript**. When a project has `fallow` installed as a dev-dependency and the agent is consuming `--format json` output from TypeScript code, `import type { CheckOutput, HealthOutput, DupesOutput, AuditOutput, FallowJsonOutput } from "fallow/types"` exposes the full output contract. `SchemaVersion` is pinned to a literal at codegen time, so a major schema bump fails to compile at call sites that gate on the version.

11. **Never enable telemetry on the user's behalf**. Fallow's product telemetry is opt-in and off by default; only the user may run `fallow telemetry enable`. You MAY set `FALLOW_AGENT_SOURCE=<allowlisted-value>` (for example `claude_code`, `codex`, `cursor`, `windsurf`, `gemini`, `cline`) so that, IF the user has already enabled telemetry, your integration is correctly attributed. Setting `FALLOW_AGENT_SOURCE` never enables telemetry by itself and uploads no codebase content.

|
|
136
|
+
| `unused-dependency` | `--unused-deps` | yes | - | Packages in `dependencies` never imported. In monorepos, internal workspace package names (e.g., `@repo/ui`) declared in another workspace's `package.json` but never imported are reported here too. `--unused-deps` also covers the dev/optional/type-only/test-only sibling rows below. |

|
+
| `type-only-dependency` | `--unused-deps` | - | - | Production dependency only used via type-only imports; Only reported in --production mode; --unused-deps scopes it together with the other dependency kinds |

|
|
142
|

| `unused-class-member` | `--unused-class-members` | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line unused-class-member` | Methods and properties |
|
|

| `unresolved-import` | `--unresolved-imports` | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line unresolved-import` | Imports that can't be resolved |
|
|
144
|
+
| `unlisted-dependency` | `--unlisted-deps` | - | - | Used packages missing from package.json. In monorepos, importing a workspace package from a workspace whose own `package.json` does not list it is reported here too; self-references stay allowed without requiring a package to depend on itself. |
|
|
145
|
+
| `duplicate-export` | `--duplicate-exports` | - | `// fallow-ignore-file duplicate-export` | Same symbol exported from multiple modules |
|
|

| `circular-dependency` | `--circular-deps` | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line circular-dependency` | Import cycles in the module graph |
|
|
147
|
+
| `re-export-cycle` | `--re-export-cycles` | - | `// fallow-ignore-file re-export-cycle` | Barrel files re-exporting from each other in a loop (`kind: "multi-node"`) or a barrel re-exporting from itself (`kind: "self-loop"`). Chain propagation through the loop is a structural no-op so imports through any member may silently come up empty. Default `warn`. Distinct from `circular-dependencies` (runtime cycles, sometimes intentional). File-scoped suppression only: `// fallow-ignore-file re-export-cycle` on any member breaks the cycle. |

|
+
| `boundary-violation` | `--boundary-violations` | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line boundary-violation` | Imports crossing architecture zone boundaries. Presets: `layered`, `hexagonal`, `feature-sliced`, `bulletproof`; `autoDiscover` can create one zone per feature directory; per-rule `allowTypeOnly: [zones]` admits `import type` / `export type` crossings while still blocking value imports. Optional sections: `boundaries.coverage.requireAllFiles` reports unzoned source files (`allowUnmatched` globs exempt intentional ones), and `boundaries.calls.forbidden` bans callee patterns per zone (segment-aware and import-resolved, so `child_process.*` covers `node:child_process` named/namespace/default imports; direct callees only, zoned files only). The whole family shares the `boundary-violation` rule and suppression token (`boundary-call-violation` and `boundary-call-violations` accepted as aliases); start the rule at `warn` for a staged rollout |
|
|
149
|
+
| `boundary-coverage` | - | - | `// fallow-ignore-file boundary-violation` | Source file matches no configured architecture boundary zone; Requires boundaries.coverage.requireAllFiles |
|
|
150
|
+
| `boundary-call-violation` | - | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line boundary-call-violation` | Zoned file calls a callee its zone forbids; Requires boundaries.calls.forbidden patterns |
|
|
151
|
+
| `policy-violation` | `--policy-violations` | - | `// fallow-ignore-next-line policy-violation` | Calls or imports banned by a declarative rule pack (`rulePacks` config key lists standalone JSON/JSONC files of `banned-call` / `banned-import` rules; pure data, no project code executes). Findings identified as `<pack>/<rule-id>`. Default `warn` master; per-rule `severity` overrides per finding and the exit gate reads the effective severity. Invalid or missing packs fail config load with exit 2. `fallow rule-pack-schema` prints the pack JSON Schema. Suppress with `// fallow-ignore-next-line policy-violation` (one token covers every pack rule on the line). |

| Tool | Kind | License | Key params | Description |
|
|
180
|
+
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
181
|
+
| `code_execute` | composition | free | `code`, `timeout_ms`, `max_output_bytes` | Bounded read-only Code Mode for composing multiple fallow analysis calls in one JavaScript snippet. The snippet receives `{ fallow, root }`, returns JSON-serializable data, and can call read-only helpers such as `fallow.projectInfo`, `fallow.audit`, `fallow.checkHealth`, and `fallow.run(tool, params)` for the same allowlist. Mutating fix tools are not exposed. The sandbox has no filesystem, network, imports, `eval`, `Function`, `process`, `require`, `Deno`, `Bun`, or shell access. Params: `code`, optional `root`, `timeout_ms` (capped at 30000), and `max_output_bytes` (capped at 4000000). |
|
|
182
|
+
| `analyze` | analysis | free | `issue_types`, `production`, `workspace`, `baseline`, `group_by`, `file` | Full dead code analysis (unused files/exports/types/dependencies/members + circular dependencies + re-export cycles (barrel files that form a structural loop, silently breaking re-exports) + boundary violations + rule-pack policy violations (banned calls and banned imports declared via the `rulePacks` config key) + stale suppressions). Private type leaks are an opt-in API hygiene check via `issue_types: ["private-type-leaks"]`. Set `boundary_violations: true` as a convenience alias for `issue_types: ["boundary-violations"]`. Set `group_by` to `"owner"`, `"directory"`, `"package"`, or `"section"` to partition results. The `section` mode reads GitLab CODEOWNERS `[Section]` headers and emits `owners` metadata per group |
|
|
183
|
+
| `check_changed` | analysis | free | `since`, `baseline`, `fail_on_regression` | Incremental analysis of files changed since a git ref |
|
|
184
|
+
| `security_candidates` | analysis | free | `gate`, `surface`, `changed_since`, `paths` | Unverified local security candidates, not confirmed vulnerabilities (`fallow security --format json`). Read `security_findings[]` for category, CWE, severity, evidence, trace, optional `reachability`, blind-spot counters, and optional `unresolved_callee_diagnostics` samples for dynamic callee follow-up. `severity` is a review-priority tier, not a verified vulnerability verdict. Each finding also carries an agent-actionable `candidate` (`source_kind`/`sink`/`boundary`), where URL-category sinks may include `url_shape` (`fixed-origin-dynamic-path` or `dynamic-origin`), an optional `taint_flow` source-to-sink triple, and a stable `finding_id` (equal to the SARIF fingerprint) for cross-run correlation; there is no `impact` field (deciding exploitability is the agent's job). Set `surface: true` to include top-level `attack_surface[]` entries with defensive-boundary prompts for a verifier. Set `gate` to `new` for changed-line candidates or `newly-reachable` for candidates that became reachable from entry points; `newly-reachable` requires `changed_since`. `reachability.untrusted_source_trace` is module-level import context only and does not prove value flow; `reachability.taint_confidence` tiers each reachable candidate as `arg-level` (sink argument traces to a same-module source read, strong) or `module-level` (only the module is import-reachable from a source, weak), so tier from this field instead of the evidence text. Verify trace, reachability context, severity, and evidence before editing code. Supports `root`, `config`, `workspace`, `paths`, `changed_since`, `changed_workspaces`, `surface`, `gate`, `no_cache`, and `threads`; `paths` forwards repeated `fallow security --file` filters for finding anchors, trace hops, untrusted-source reachability trace hops, and unresolved-callee diagnostics. See <https://docs.fallow.tools/cli/security-agent-verification> for the verifier packet and verdict recipe. Inherits `FALLOW_DIFF_FILE` from the server environment for line-level diff scoping; raise `FALLOW_TIMEOUT_SECS` for large repos. |
|
|
185
|
+
| `inspect_target` | analysis | free | `target`, `production` | Compose one evidence bundle for a file or exported symbol. File targets use `target: { type: "file", file }`; symbol targets use `target: { type: "symbol", file, export_name }`. Returns `kind: "inspect_target"`, normalized target identity, `trace_file`, optional `trace_export`, file-scoped dead-code actions, duplication groups filtered to the file, complexity findings filtered to the file, and security candidates scoped to the file. Evidence sections carry `status` and `scope`; symbol targets warn when supporting evidence is file-scoped. Supports `root`, `config`, `production`, `workspace`, `no_cache`, and `threads`; `production` applies to trace, dead-code, and health evidence only. Raise `FALLOW_TIMEOUT_SECS` for large repos. |
|
|
186
|
+
| `find_dupes` | analysis | free | `mode`, `min_tokens`, `min_occurrences`, `top`, `threshold` | Code duplication detection. Set `changed_since` to scope to changed files since a git ref. Set `min_occurrences` (≥ 2, default 2) to hide pair-only clones and focus on widespread copy-paste; JSON gains `stats.clone_groups_below_min_occurrences` when the filter hides anything. Each `clone_groups[]` entry carries a stable `fingerprint`, usually `dup:<8hex>` and widened only on rare report collisions; pass it to `trace_clone` to deep-dive that group |
|
|
187
|
+
| `check_health` | analysis | free | `score`, `file_scores`, `hotspots`, `targets`, `coverage`, `runtime_coverage`, `max_crap`, `group_by` | Complexity metrics, health scores, hotspots, and refactoring targets. Set `complexity_breakdown: true` to add a per-decision-point `contributions[]` array to each complexity finding (each `else-if`, nested `if`, boolean operator, loop, `case`, etc. with its source line and cyclomatic/cognitive weight) so you can explain WHY a function scored high and pinpoint refactor targets. Optional `runtime_coverage` merges a V8 or Istanbul dump; tune it with `min_invocations_hot` (default 100), `min_observation_volume` (default 5000), and `low_traffic_threshold` (default 0.001). When runtime evidence combines with static usage, test coverage, CRAP/complexity, ownership, or change scope, read `coverage_intelligence` for stable `fallow:coverage-intel:<hash>` recommendations. Set `group_by` to `owner`, `directory`, `package`, or `section` for per-group `vital_signs` / `health_score`; SARIF results gain `properties.group`, CodeClimate issues gain a top-level `group` field |

|
188
|
+
| `check_runtime_coverage` | runtime-coverage | freemium | `coverage`, `min_invocations_hot`, `min_observation_volume`, `low_traffic_threshold`, `group_by` | Merge V8 or Istanbul runtime-coverage data into the health report. One local capture is free; continuous/cloud or multi-capture runtime monitoring is paid. Required `coverage` param (V8 dir, V8 JSON, or Istanbul `coverage-final.json`). Tuning knobs: `min_invocations_hot` (default 100), `min_observation_volume` (default 5000), `low_traffic_threshold` (default 0.001), `max_crap` (default 30.0), `top`, `group_by`. Cloud runtime rows can expose `resolutionStatus` / `mappingQuality` on function-list JSON and `resolution_status` / `mapping_quality` in runtime-context JSON. Use `coverage_intelligence` and the confidence table below before acting on file-level runtime signals. Long dumps may exceed the 120s MCP timeout; raise `FALLOW_TIMEOUT_SECS`. Pick this over `check_health` when you have a coverage dump. |
|
|
189
|
+
| `get_hot_paths` | runtime-coverage | freemium | `coverage`, `top`, `min_invocations_hot` | Runtime-context slice over the same runtime coverage pipeline. Same params as `check_runtime_coverage`; read `runtime_coverage.hot_paths` for production hot paths. |
|
|
190
|
+
| `get_blast_radius` | runtime-coverage | freemium | `coverage`, `group_by` | Runtime-context slice for blast-radius review. Same params as `check_runtime_coverage`; read `runtime_coverage.blast_radius` for stable `fallow:blast:<hash>` IDs, caller counts, traffic-weighted caller reach, optional cloud deploy touch counts, and low/medium/high risk bands. |
|
|
191
|
+
| `get_importance` | runtime-coverage | freemium | `coverage`, `group_by` | Runtime-context slice for production-importance review. Same params as `check_runtime_coverage`; read `runtime_coverage.importance` for stable `fallow:importance:<hash>` IDs, invocations, cyclomatic complexity, owner count, 0-100 score, and templated reason. |
|
|
192
|
+
| `get_cleanup_candidates` | runtime-coverage | freemium | `coverage`, `group_by` | Runtime-context slice for cleanup review. Same params as `check_runtime_coverage`; read `runtime_coverage.findings` for `safe_to_delete`, `review_required`, `low_traffic`, and `coverage_unavailable`. |
|
|
193
|
+
| `audit` | analysis | free | `gate`, `base`, `max_crap`, `coverage`, `runtime_coverage` | Combined dead-code + complexity + duplication for changed files, returns verdict. Set `gate` to `"new-only"` or `"all"`. Optional `runtime_coverage` (V8 dir / V8 JSON / Istanbul JSON) folds runtime findings into the same call; `min_invocations_hot` tunes the hot-path threshold (default 100). Runtime evidence appears under the audit `complexity` sub-result, including `coverage_intelligence` when combined evidence yields actionable recommendations. |
|
|
194
|
+
| `fallow_explain` | introspection | free | `issue_type` | Explain one issue type without running analysis. Required `issue_type`; returns rationale, examples, fix guidance, and docs URL |

198
|
+
| `list_boundaries` | introspection | free | - | Architecture boundary zones, access rules, and pre-expansion `autoDiscover` `logical_groups[]` (user-authored parent name, verbatim paths, discovered children, `status` enum, summed `file_count`). Returns `{"configured": false}` if no boundaries configured |
|
|
199
|
+
| `feature_flags` | analysis | free | `workspace`, `production` | Detect feature flag patterns (env vars, SDK calls, config objects). Set `top` to limit results |
|
|
200
|
+
| `impact` | introspection | free | `root` | Read the local, opt-in Fallow Impact value report (`fallow impact --format json`). Runs no analysis: current surfacing counts, trend since the last recorded run, pre-commit gate containment, and (on impact v1.5+) resolved/suppressed attribution. Read-only and `root`-only; the mutating `enable` / `disable` lifecycle is not exposed. A never-enabled project returns a populated `{"enabled": false, ...}` report (never `{}`); branch on `enabled` then `record_count` and recommend the user run `fallow impact enable` rather than toggling it. Local-developer signal: empty in ephemeral CI runners, so not a CI metric |
|
|
201
|
+
| `trace_export` | trace | free | `file`, `export_name` | Trace why an export is used or unused (`fallow dead-code --trace FILE:EXPORT_NAME --format json`). Required `file` and `export_name`. Returns file reachability, entry-point status, direct references, re-export chains, and a reason string. Use before deleting a supposedly-unused export |
|
|
202
|
+
| `trace_file` | trace | free | `file` | Trace all graph edges for a file (`fallow dead-code --trace-file PATH --format json`). Required `file`. Returns reachability, exports, imports-from, imported-by, and re-exports. Use to decide whether a file is isolated, barrel-only, or imported by live entry points |
|
|
203
|
+
| `trace_dependency` | trace | free | `package_name` | Trace where a dependency is imported (`fallow dead-code --trace-dependency PACKAGE --format json`). Required `package_name`. Returns importing files, type-only importers, total import count, `used_in_scripts` (true when invoked from package.json scripts or CI configs), and `is_used` (combined import + script signal; mirrors the unused-deps detector so build tools like `microbundle` or `vitest` are not falsely flagged as unused). Use before removing a dependency or moving between `dependencies` and `devDependencies` |
|
|
204
|
+
| `trace_clone` | trace | free | `file`, `line`, `fingerprint` | Deep-dive a duplicate-code clone group (`fallow dupes --trace <spec> --format json`). Address by exactly one of: `file` + `line` (a source location), or `fingerprint` (a `dup:<id>` from a prior `find_dupes` `clone_groups[].fingerprint`, usually `dup:<8hex>` and widened only on rare report collisions). Returns the matched clone instance plus every clone group containing it; each traced group carries its `fingerprint`, an extract-function `suggestion` with estimated savings, and a best-effort `suggested_name` (omitted when no confident name). Supports `mode`, `min_tokens`, `min_lines`, `threshold`, `skip_local`, `cross_language`, `ignore_imports`. Use to consolidate duplication when you need exact sibling locations and a refactor target |

`dead-code`, `health`, `dupes`, bare `fallow`, and `audit` JSON output also carry a top-level `next_steps` array of read-only follow-up commands computed from the run's findings: each entry is `{ id, command, reason }`. The `command` is runnable as-is (never a placeholder, never `fix` or any other mutating command); the stable kebab-case `id` (`trace-unused-export`, `trace-clone`, `complexity-breakdown`, `scope-workspaces`, `audit-changed`) maps to a verification step you should run BEFORE acting, for example tracing an export before deleting it. When running via MCP, dispatch on the `id` to the matching tool / `code_execute` host call (`trace_export`, `trace_clone`, `check_health` with `complexity_breakdown: true`, `audit`) rather than shelling out the CLI string. The array is deduplicated, capped at three, and omitted when empty; set `FALLOW_SUGGESTIONS=off` to suppress it.

These are unverified candidates, not confirmed vulnerabilities; an agent must verify trace, reachability, and evidence before editing. `--surface` adds a top-level `attack_surface[]` inventory for a verifier. The gate modes are `new` (candidates introduced on changed lines) and `newly-reachable` (candidates that became reachable from entry points, which needs `--changed-since <ref>`); there is no `all` mode by design. The gate fails with exit 8, distinct from the standard exit ladder.

`--ownership` implies `--hotspots` and `--effort` implies `--targets`. The global `--group-by` accepts `owner`, `directory`, `package`, or `section` (the `section` mode reads GitLab CODEOWNERS `[Section]` headers). Hotspots and ownership require a git repository.

### Explain why a complex function scored high
|
|
399
|
+
|
|
400
|
+
```bash
|
|
401
|
+
fallow health --format json --quiet --complexity --complexity-breakdown
|
|
402
|
+
```
|
|
403
|
+
|
|
404
|
+
Adds a per-decision-point `contributions[]` array to every complexity finding (each `if`, `else-if`, loop, boolean operator, and `case` with its source line and cyclomatic/cognitive weight), so you can pinpoint the exact refactor target.

### Gate CI on regressions (baselines)
|
|
407
|
+
|
|
408
|
+
```bash
|
|
409
|
+
# 1. Save the current issue counts as a regression baseline
|
|
410
|
+
fallow dead-code --format json --quiet --save-regression-baseline .fallow/baseline.json
|
|
411
|
+
# 2. In CI: fail only if issues increase beyond tolerance
|
|
412
|
+
fallow dead-code --format json --quiet --regression-baseline .fallow/baseline.json --fail-on-regression --tolerance 0
|
|
413
|
+
# Identity-based baseline (fail only on NEW findings, not raw counts)
|
|
414
|
+
fallow dead-code --format json --quiet --save-baseline .fallow/snapshot.json
|
|
415
|
+
fallow dead-code --format json --quiet --baseline .fallow/snapshot.json
|
|
416
|
+
```
|
|
417
|
+
|
|
418
|
+
`--save-regression-baseline` / `--regression-baseline` / `--fail-on-regression` / `--tolerance` are count-based gates; `--save-baseline` / `--baseline` are identity-based (track finding identity, fail on new). All six are global flags, so they also work on `health` and `dupes`. `audit` rejects the global baseline flags and uses `--dead-code-baseline` / `--health-baseline` / `--dupes-baseline` instead.

### Explain an issue type without running analysis
|
|
421
|
+
|
|
422
|
+
```bash
|
|
423
|
+
fallow explain unused-export --format json
|
|
424
|
+
fallow explain code-duplication
|
|
425
|
+
```
|
|
426
|
+
|
|
427
|
+
The issue type is a positional argument and accepts forms like `unused-export`, `fallow/unused-export`, `unused exports`, or `code duplication`. It runs no analysis and returns the rule rationale, a worked example, fix guidance, and the docs URL.
|
|
428
|
+
|
|
429
|
+
### Show what fallow has surfaced over time (Impact)
|
|
430
|
+
|
|
431
|
+
```bash
|
|
432
|
+
# Enable once (local-only, opt-in, never uploads, never affects exit codes)
|
|
433
|
+
fallow impact enable
|
|
434
|
+
# Read the value report: surfacing count, trend, pre-commit containment
|
|
435
|
+
fallow impact --format json --quiet
|
|
436
|
+
```
|
|
437
|
+
|
|
438
|
+
`fallow impact enable` is a one-time, user-owned local action; the agent-facing line is the read step. The store lives at `.fallow/impact.json` (gitignored), the report is read-only, and it is empty in ephemeral CI runners.

545
|
|
|
393
546
|
- **`fix --yes` is required** in non-TTY (agent) environments. Without it, `fix` exits with code 2
|

394
|
-
- **Zero config by default.**

- **Zero config by default.** 122 framework plugins auto-detect, including Wuchale config, Contentlayer content roots, tap and tsd test entry points. Don't create config unless customization is needed
|
|
395
548
|
- **Syntactic analysis only.** No TypeScript compiler, so fully dynamic `import(variable)` is not resolved
|
|
396
549
|
- **Function overloads are deduplicated.** TypeScript function overload signatures are merged into a single export (not reported as separate unused exports)
|
|
397
550
|
- **Re-export chains are resolved.** Exports through barrel files are tracked, not falsely flagged
