Create Community Node Lint Rule Guide for adding new ESLint rules to packages/@n8n/eslint-plugin-community-nodes/. All paths below are relative to packages/@n8n/eslint-plugin-community-nodes/. Step 1: Understand the Rule Before writing code, clarify: What does the rule detect? (missing property, wrong pattern, bad value) Where does it apply? (.node.ts files, credential classes, both) Severity: error (must fix) or warn (should fix)? Fixable? Can it be auto-fixed safely, or only suggest? Scope: Both recommended configs, or exclude from recommendedWithoutN8nCloudSupport? Step 2: Implement the Rule Create src/rules/ .ts: Naming: Export as PascalCaseRule (e.g. MissingPairedItemRule). The name field is kebab-case. Available AST helpers — see reference.md for the full catalog of ast-utils and file-utils exports.
