Build-Failing Lint Enforces No-Emoji Policy on Static Sites
A developer created a custom lint that fails the build if any emoji is found in article data for 20 static sites. The tool uses a regex to catch emoji code points and exits with non-zero status to block deployment. The approach prioritizes zero false positives over catching every edge case.

Turning a style rule into a build-breaking check is a practical automation tactic, but the narrow focus on emoji suggests the real challenge is maintaining tone across machine-generated content.
