unused-ignore

Flags a rule in a rafiki: ignore comment that has nothing to silence.

Why

Suppressions outlive the code they were written for. Once the finding is gone, the comment only hides the next real finding of that rule in the same place.

What it flags

Each rule in an ignore or file-ignore comment that reports nothing in the code the comment covers.

What it leaves alone

Rules turned off with disable or left out of enable, since they can’t report anything anyway. A suppression for them stays valid if they’re turned back on.

Example

// Before
var total = count + 1; // rafiki: ignore[bool-comparison]
var ready = isReady == true; // rafiki: ignore[bool-comparison, naming-convention]

// After
var total = count + 1;
var ready = isReady == true; // rafiki: ignore[bool-comparison]

When some of a comment’s rules are still in use, the fix keeps those and drops the rest.

This rule can’t be silenced with a rafiki: ignore comment, but it can be turned off with disable.
