Format

dotnet run --project developer-cli -- format [--backend] [--frontend] [--cli] [--self-contained-system <name>] [--no-build] [--all-files] --quiet

Use developer-cli exactly as written - do not expand to an absolute worktree path.

• --backend - .NET (JetBrains cleanupcode)
• --frontend - React/TypeScript (oxfmt + oxlint --fix)
• --cli - the developer CLI itself
• --self-contained-system <name> - narrows backend formatting to one SCS (e.g. account, main)
• --no-build - skip the dotnet tool restore step (faster after a recent run)
• --all-files - format every file in the solution. Default is to format only .cs files changed against origin/main (faster).

No arguments formats everything (changed-only by default). Unformatted code fails CI - commit all changes, never revert.

After build succeeds, run format, lint, test in parallel with --no-build.

Examples

dotnet run --project developer-cli -- format --quiet                                            # everything
dotnet run --project developer-cli -- format --backend --quiet                                  # all backend
dotnet run --project developer-cli -- format --frontend --quiet                                 # frontend
dotnet run --project developer-cli -- format --backend --self-contained-system account --quiet  # one SCS

Always pass --quiet

Verbose output goes to a log file. On success the CLI prints a single line; on failure it prints a short error message - read the log if you need details. Backend is slow - run last. Frontend is fast.
