Managed Lint Scope and Policy Glossary

• Software Scope: a selected package-root owner of software subject to managed quality checks. Avoid using “discovered package” or “workspace” as if either alone proves accepted ownership.
• Excluded Path: repository content omitted from managed quality execution regardless of surrounding owner.
• Project Lint Policy: project-authored rules and configuration choices preserved as inputs across baseline updates.
• Effective Lint Policy: the composed rules, settings, exclusions, and failure semantics applied to one Software Scope under the supported toolchain.
• Lint Route: the derived binding from a Software Scope to its executable config and command context.
• Lint Adoption: the validated, ownership-safe transition from prior lint setup to selected scopes and coherent routes.

Use the existing meanings of Commit Gate, Quality Command Contract, Scaffold Manifest, Validation Candidate, and Validation Result.
