Code Climate CLI Files

New

• Add a --skip flag to qlty check and qlty fmt, the counterpart to --filter: run every enabled plugin except the ones listed (for example qlty check --skip eslint or qlty check --filter eslint,rubocop --skip rubocop). A plugin entry removes the plugin entirely while a plugin:rule entry keeps it running and drops matching issues. An unknown name fails with Plugin not found: <name>, and skipping every enabled plugin fails with All enabled plugins were skipped (#2913)

Fixed

• Run the prettier formatter from the staging root like every other formatter so the staged .prettierignore is honored, fixing ignored files still being reformatted. A prepare script links the tool install's node_modules into the staging root so bare plugin names in .prettierrc continue to resolve (#2916)

Notice: CLI releases served over HTTPS only (2026-09-14)

CLI releases are now served over HTTPS only. Versions before v0.590.0 fetch the latest-release manifest over HTTP, so qlty upgrade and qlty version now fail on them with an error naming an http:// URL. qlty check, qlty fmt, qlty coverage publish, and qlty --version are unaffected. To recover, run qlty upgrade --version 0.644.0, which skips the manifest lookup, or re-run the installer (curl https://qlty.sh | sh on macOS and Linux, powershell -c "iwr https://qlty.sh | iex" on Windows).
