revet watch

Continuously scan for findings as you edit files. Save a file, instantly see results.

revet watch                     # watch current directory
revet watch --no-clear          # accumulate output instead of clearing screen
revet watch --debounce 500      # debounce delay in ms (default: 300)
revet watch --fix               # apply auto-fixes on each save

Press Ctrl-C to stop.

How it works

revet watch sets up a file watcher on the current directory. When a file is saved, it re-runs the analyzers on the changed file and refreshes the terminal output. Useful during active development as a fast feedback loop — no IDE plugin required.
