feat(build): GitLab CI component, GitHub Actions action, and pre-commit hook
ci / vet, staticcheck, test, build (push) Failing after 1m52s
release / Build and publish release (push) Successful in 1m13s

templates/check.yml — GitLab CI/CD Catalog component; downloads the glint
Linux binary and runs glint check; inputs: stage, pipeline_file, version,
allow_failure, extra_args.

action.yml — GitHub Actions composite action; downloads glint into
$RUNNER_TEMP and runs glint check; inputs: version, file, args. Mirror
to github.com/k3nny/glint to use as `uses: k3nny/glint@vX.Y.Z`.

.pre-commit-hooks.yaml — language: golang hook; pre-commit builds glint
from source on first run and re-runs on staged .gitlab-ci.yml changes.
Reference as repo: https://git.k3nny.fr/k3nny/glint.

README updated with an Integrations section covering all three.
Git remote corrected to https://git.k3nny.fr/k3nny/glint.

## [0.2.28] - 2026-06-26
### Added
- **Pre-commit hook** — `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` defines a `glint` hook with `language: golang`; pre-commit builds glint from source automatically on first run and re-runs `glint check` on any staged `.gitlab-ci.yml` changes. Reference: `repo: https://git.k3nny.fr/k3nny/glint, rev: v0.2.28`.
- **GitLab CI component** (`templates/check.yml`) — a GitLab CI/CD Catalogcompatible component that downloads the glint Linux binary and runs `glint check` as a pipeline job. Accepts inputs: `stage` (default `validate`), `pipeline_file` (default `.gitlab-ci.yml`), `version` (default `latest`), `allow_failure` (default `false`), and `extra_args`. Can also be used as a plain local or remote include without the Catalog.
- **GitHub Actions composite action** (`action.yml`) — downloads the glint Linux binary into `$RUNNER_TEMP`, adds it to `$GITHUB_PATH`, and runs `glint check`. Inputs: `version`, `file`, `args`. Mirror this repository to GitHub as `k3nny/glint` to reference it as `uses: k3nny/glint@v0.2.28`.

## Integrations
### Pre-commit hook
Add to `.pre-commit-config.yaml` in your repository to run glint automatically whenever `.gitlab-ci.yml` changes:
```yaml
repos:
- repo: https://git.k3nny.fr/k3nny/glint
rev: v0.2.28
hooks:
- id: glint
```
Requires [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com) and Go 1.21+. On first run, pre-commit builds glint from source automatically.
### GitLab CI component
Copy [`templates/check.yml`](templates/check.yml) into your repository and include it as a local file, or publish this repository to a GitLab CI/CD Catalog and reference it as a component:
```yaml
# As a local include (copy templates/check.yml to your repo first):
include:
- local: .gitlab/glint-check.yml
# As a Catalog component (after publishing to a GitLab instance):
include:
- component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/k3nny/glint/check@v0.2.28
inputs:
stage: validate # optional, default: validate
allow_failure: true # optional, default: false
```
The component downloads the glint Linux binary, runs `glint check`, and respects all inputs defined in the `spec:` block.
### GitHub Actions
Copy [`action.yml`](action.yml) from this repository, or mirror this repo to GitHub as `k3nny/glint` and reference it directly:
```yaml
- uses: k3nny/glint@v0.2.28
with:
file: .gitlab-ci.yml # optional, default: .gitlab-ci.yml
args: '--format sarif' # optional
```
The action downloads the glint Linux binary into `$RUNNER_TEMP` and runs `glint check`. Only Linux runners are supported (matches the available release binary).
## Development
This project uses [Task](https://taskfile.dev) as a task runner.

## CI / editor integration
- **GitLab CI template** — a `.gitlab-ci.yml` snippet that runs `glint` as a pipeline-validation job before the real pipeline executes; publishable to the GitLab CI/CD Catalog
- **GitHub Actions action** — `uses: k3nny/glint@v1` wrapper for repositories that mirror or manage GitLab pipelines from GitHub
- **Pre-commit hook** — entry for [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com) so `glint` runs automatically on `git commit` when `.gitlab-ci.yml` changes
- ~~**GitLab CI template**~~✓ shipped v0.2.28; `templates/check.yml` is a GitLab CI/CD Catalog component with `spec:` inputs for stage, file, version, allow_failure, and extra args; also usable as a plain local/remote include
- ~~**GitHub Actions action**~~✓ shipped v0.2.28; `action.yml` composite action downloads the glint Linux binary and runs `glint check`; mirror to GitHub as `k3nny/glint` to reference as `uses: k3nny/glint@v0.2.28`
- ~~**Pre-commit hook**~~✓ shipped v0.2.28; `.pre-commit-hooks.yaml` defines `language: golang` hook; pre-commit builds glint from source on first run and re-runs on staged `.gitlab-ci.yml` changes
- **LSP server** — `glint lsp` mode exposing diagnostics over the Language Server Protocol; enables inline squiggles in VS Code, JetBrains, Neovim, etc. without a dedicated extension
- **VS Code extension** — thin wrapper around the LSP server with syntax highlighting for `.gitlab-ci.yml`
