@phoenix-server what do each of these lines do when using Knip? Should these be false for this project?
Uh oh!

Hi @cameri , These are Knip "plugins" that auto-detect dependencies by reading each tool's config file. Setting them to false disables that detection.
However, with
--production(which our npm run knip script uses), these flags have no effect as--productionalready skips devDependency analysis entirely. So they're redundant.They only matter if someone runs npx knip without
--production, where the plugins would flag ~17 devDependencies (like chai, sinon, mochawesome, rxjs, ts-node-dev, etc.) as unused even though they're used by tests/tooling.I can remove them to keep the config minimal since
--productionhandles it, or keep them as a safety net for manual runs. Happy to go either way , what do you prefer?There was a problem hiding this comment.
