Dont Be Lazy¶

Dont Be Lazy helps you audit suppression comments and config-level ignores that were supposed to be temporary. It scans repositories for skipped tests, blanket lint ignores, stale type-checker suppressions, security-rule bypasses, formatter exclusions, and similar shortcuts that quietly stick around.

Start here¶

• Read the project overview for the problem this tool solves.
• Follow the installation guide to install the CLI.
• Use the quick start for common commands.
• See contributing for local development.

Core capabilities¶

• Detect inline suppressions and config-file suppressions across many Python tooling ecosystems.
• Assign risk based on tool, scope, and suppression kind.
• Surface stale suppressions with optional git blame, git history, and baseline support.
• Explain individual findings and evaluate them against built-in policy rules.
• Export findings as table, JSON, JSONL, Markdown, or SARIF where supported.

Main commands¶

Command	Purpose
scan	Scan files and config for suppressions.
summary	Group counts by tool, path, scope, owner, age, or risk.
stale	Focus on older suppressions that need re-review.
owners	Attribute suppressions to authors or teams.
explain	Explain one finding in detail.
baseline	Track accepted suppressions across runs.
rules	Test findings against built-in DBL policy rules.

Release notes¶

The packaged source changelog lives in the repository root. This docs site includes a short changelog page so Read the Docs has a first-class navigation entry.
