3. Lints paths for policy violations (absolute paths, excessive traversal)
4. Outputs JSON results for programmatic consumption

Requirements

• lychee installed (brew install lychee)
• Python 3.11+ and uv

Output

Results are written to .link-check-results.md in your workspace:

# Link Check Results
