// Use when finishing a feature, fixing a bug, before committing React code, or when the user types `/doctor`, asks to scan, triage, or clean up React diagnostics. Covers lint, accessibility, bundle size, architecture. Includes a regression check and a full local-triage workflow that fetches the canonical playbook.
Validate implemented React Doctor rules before PR or merge. Use after rule tests pass to review correctness, run RDE against OSS, inspect false positives, generate changesets, write PR descriptions, and triage bot or human review comments.
Research and scope React Doctor rule ideas before implementation. Use when validating a proposed rule, grounding it in docs, OSS examples, RDE evidence, false-positive traps, detector precision, or v1 non-goals.
Write React Doctor rules from a validated rule contract. Use when implementing oxlint plugin rules, planning AST/scope/control-flow detection, designing adversarial tests, adding utilities, or updating rule registration.

| version | 1.1.0 |
Scans React codebases for security, performance, correctness, and architecture issues. Outputs a 0–100 health score.
Run npx react-doctor@latest --verbose --diff and check the score did not regress.
If the score dropped, fix the regressions before committing.
Run npx react-doctor@latest --verbose (without --diff) to scan the full codebase. Fix issues by severity — errors first, then warnings.
When the user types /doctor, says "run react doctor", or asks for a full triage / cleanup pass (not just a regression check), fetch the canonical local-triage playbook and follow every step in it:
curl --fail --silent --show-error \
--header 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
https://www.react.doctor/prompts/react-doctor-agent.md
The playbook is the single source of truth — a scan → filter → triage → fix → validate loop that edits the working tree directly (never commits, never opens PRs). Updating the prompt at its source updates every agent on its next fetch — no skill reinstall needed.
Pair it with the matching per-rule prompts at https://www.react.doctor/prompts/rules/<plugin>/<rule>.md (fetched on demand inside the playbook) so each fix uses the canonical, reviewer-tested recipe.
npx react-doctor@latest --verbose --diff
| Flag | Purpose |
|---|---|
. | Scan current directory |
--verbose | Show affected files and line numbers per rule |
--diff | Only scan changed files vs base branch |
--score | Output only the numeric score |
