Description

@github-actions

Overview

Daily analysis of 3 Go source files in pkg/cli/ for function name clarity and AI agent discoverability. One rename candidate was identified across the three files.

Files Analyzed: pkg/cli/access_log.go, pkg/cli/actionlint.go, pkg/cli/actions.go

Round-Robin Position: files 0–2 of 574 total

Why This Matters

When AI coding agents search for functions to complete a task, they rely on function names to understand what code does. Clear, descriptive names increase the likelihood that an agent will find the right function instead of reimplementing existing logic.

Rename Suggestions

pkg/cli/actionlint.go

Current Name Suggested Name Reason
runActionlintOnFile runActionlintOnFiles Accepts []string (a slice of files), not a single file. The exported wrapper in the same package is already named RunActionlintOnFiles (plural) — the internal name should match for consistency and to prevent an agent from overlooking this function when searching for multi-file handling.

All functions in this file (for reference):

  • getActionlintDocsURL() — ✅ Clear, no change needed
  • initActionlintStats() — ✅ Clear, no change needed
  • displayActionlintSummary() — ✅ Clear, no change needed
  • getActionlintVersion() — ✅ Clear, no change needed
  • runActionlintOnFile()⚠️ Rename suggested (see table above)
  • parseAndDisplayActionlintOutput() — ✅ Clear, no change needed

pkg/cli/access_log.go

No rename suggestions — all functions already have clear, descriptive names.

All functions in this file (for reference):

  • parseSquidAccessLog() — ✅ Clear
  • parseSquidLogLine() — ✅ Clear
  • analyzeAccessLogs() — ✅ Clear
  • analyzeMultipleAccessLogs() — ✅ Clear
  • (*DomainAnalysis).AddMetrics() — ✅ Clear

pkg/cli/actions.go

No rename suggestions — the single function has a clear, specific name.

All functions in this file (for reference):

  • convertToGitHubActionsEnv() — ✅ Clear

Agentic Implementation Plan

This issue is designed to be assigned to a coding agent. The agent should implement the rename below in a single pull request.

Prerequisites

  • Review the function body of runActionlintOnFile in pkg/cli/actionlint.go to confirm the rename is accurate
  • Verify no Go interface constraints require the name runActionlintOnFile

Implementation Steps

1. Rename the function in pkg/cli/actionlint.go
// Old
func runActionlintOnFile(lockFiles []string, verbose bool, strict bool) error {

// New
func runActionlintOnFiles(lockFiles []string, verbose bool, strict bool) error {
2. Update all call sites
grep -rn "runActionlintOnFile" pkg/ --include="*.go"

Known call sites (from static analysis):

  • pkg/cli/compile_validation.goRunActionlintOnFiles (line ~22)
  • pkg/cli/compile_validation.goCompileWorkflowWithValidation (line ~115)
  • pkg/cli/compile_validation.goCompileWorkflowDataWithValidation (line ~183)

Also check test files:

grep -rn "runActionlintOnFile" pkg/ --include="*_test.go"
3. Verify compilation
make build
4. Run tests after the rename
make test-unit
make lint
```

#### Commit Convention

```
refactor: rename runActionlintOnFile to runActionlintOnFiles for clarity

Validation Checklist

  • Rename implemented in pkg/cli/actionlint.go
  • All call sites updated in pkg/cli/compile_validation.go (and any others found by grep)
  • make build passes with no errors
  • make test-unit passes
  • make lint passes
  • PR description explains the agent-discoverability rationale

Notes for the Agent

  • This is a pure rename refactor — behavior must not change, only the name
  • The function is unexported (runActionlint...), so no external packages are affected
  • The exported wrapper RunActionlintOnFiles in pkg/cli/compile_validation.go already uses the correct plural form — this rename brings the internal implementation into alignment
  • Follow existing naming conventions documented in AGENTS.md
