Introduction
I run about twenty static sites on an automated pipeline. Article data lives in JSON, and a dependency-free build.js emits the HTML. Since updates run unattended, most of the writing is done by machines too.
That created a problem I did not anticipate: tone drifted. I had a rule that these sites use no emoji. Yet every run slipped one in somewhere. A heading here, an FAQ answer there. I would remove them, and the next day they showed up somewhere else.
Trying to hold a style rule in place through review does not scale. So I turned it into a lint that fails the build.
