Understanding Interlace
Core concepts behind AI-native security linting
Why Understanding Matters
ESLint Interlace isn't just another linting tool—it's an AI-native security ecosystem designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with modern AI coding assistants.
Understanding these core concepts will help you:
- Get the most out of Interlace's security rules
- Integrate effectively with AI assistants like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude
- Contribute your own rules to the ecosystem
