What and why

Clippy has been a hard gate on CI for a while, but only because the workflow appends -D warnings.
A plain cargo clippy locally reported the same findings as warnings and exited 0 — so the gate
was invisible until push time. Moving the levels into the manifest makes the local command behave
like the CI one without anyone having to remember a flag.

[workspace.lints.rust]
unsafe_code = "forbid"

[workspace.lints.clippy]
all = { level = "deny", priority = -1 }

forbid, not deny, for unsafe_code. There is no unsafe anywhere in this workspace — the
five grep hits are the word inside a test name and in comments about zip-slip — and no reason for
any to appear in game logic, persistence or simulation. forbid additionally rejects a local
#[allow(unsafe_code)], which is the entire point: deny can be switched off in the exact file
that wants to break the rule. If a genuine need ever arrives, deleting the line is the conversation.

priority = -1 on the clippy group so it sets a floor while a single lint can still be
configured individually at the default priority. Without it, cargo rejects the combination as
ambiguous the first time someone adds a specific lint.

All seven manifests opt in, including the root [package] that shares a file with the
[workspace] table. Omitting that one would leave the whole Tauri command layer unlinted, and it is
the easy one to miss.

Scope — stated here and in the manifest so it does not get overstated later

It also buys CI's lint levels, not CI's coverage. CI lints --workspace --all-targets and
then makes a second pass with --features mcp; a bare cargo clippy sees one package, its default
targets and its default features, so it can be clean while CI is red. Match the scope as well as the
levels before calling a change clippy-clean.

This buys clippy parity with CI, not warning parity. CI's trailing -D warnings also denies
ordinary rustc warnings. The obvious-looking fix — warnings = "deny" under [workspace.lints.rust]
— is deliberately not taken: workspace lints apply to every cargo invocation, so it would turn
an unused variable into a hard error during cargo build and cargo test while you are still
mid-edit. Being stricter than CI in that spot is a worse trade than the residual gap.

Nothing speculative is included. pedantic and nursery are not adopted, because their cost was
not measured — and because CI already runs -D warnings, a lint added here at "warn" becomes a
hard gate the moment it lands. There is no advisory tier, so anything added must be measured first.

No linked issue — infrastructure change.

How to verify

Cost to green is zero, measured rather than assumed. On the pinned toolchain, both of these exit
0 with no warnings:

cargo clippy --manifest-path src-tauri/Cargo.toml --workspace --all-targets
cargo clippy --manifest-path src-tauri/Cargo.toml --workspace --all-targets --features mcp

Note the absence of -- -D warnings: that is the change.

The lints were confirmed to bite, again with no -D warnings on the command line:

Probe Result
unsafe {} in a domain function error: usage of an unsafe block
…with #[allow(unsafe_code)] attached the allow itself rejected — E0453, forbid cannot be overridden
v.len() == 0 error: length comparison to zero, noting -D clippy::len-zero implied by -D clippy::all

Both probes reverted afterwards.

Suggested merge order: this one first, ahead of the three test PRs alongside it. It is what makes
clippy a real gate, and those PRs add roughly 400 lines of test code that no branch has linted under
it. The combination has been tested — clippy exit 0, 457 tests green — but merging this first keeps
every intermediate commit on develop honest.

Clippy has been a hard gate on CI for a while, but only because the workflow
appends `-D warnings`. A plain `cargo clippy` locally reported the same
findings as warnings and exited 0, so the gate was invisible until push time.
Moving the levels into the manifest makes the local command behave like the CI
one without anyone having to remember a flag.

`unsafe_code = "forbid"`, not `deny`: there is no `unsafe` anywhere in this
workspace and no reason for any to appear in game logic, persistence or
simulation. `forbid` additionally rejects a local `#[allow(unsafe_code)]`,
which is the whole point — `deny` can be switched off in the file that wants to
break the rule.

`clippy::all` carries `priority = -1` so the group sets a floor while a single
lint can still be configured individually at the default priority. Without it
cargo rejects the combination as ambiguous the moment a specific lint is added.

Scope, recorded in the manifest so it does not get overstated later: this buys
*clippy* parity with CI, not *warning* parity. CI's `-D warnings` also denies
ordinary rustc warnings. The obvious fix — `warnings = "deny"` under
`[workspace.lints.rust]` — is deliberately not taken, because workspace lints
apply to every cargo invocation and it would turn an unused variable into a
hard error during `cargo build` and `cargo test` while you are mid-edit. Being
stricter than CI in that spot is a worse trade than the residual gap.

All seven manifests opt in, including the root `[package]` that shares a file
with the `[workspace]` table — omitting that one would leave the whole command
layer unlinted.

Cost to green is zero, measured rather than assumed:
`cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets` and the `--features mcp` pass both
exit 0 with no warnings on the pinned 1.95.0 toolchain.

Verified the lints bite with no `-D warnings` on the command line: an `unsafe`
block fails, its `#[allow(unsafe_code)]` is itself rejected (E0453), and a
`v.len() == 0` fails with `-D clippy::len-zero implied by -D clippy::all`.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Rust workspace adds shared lint rules that forbid unsafe code and deny Clippy lints. The root package and six workspace crates inherit these rules through their Cargo manifests.

Pull request overview

This PR centralizes Rust/Clippy lint levels in src-tauri/Cargo.toml under [workspace.lints], and opts all workspace members into those lint settings so local cargo clippy matches the CI gate behavior (without needing -- -D warnings).

Changes:

  • Add [workspace.lints.rust] (unsafe_code = "forbid") and [workspace.lints.clippy] (clippy::all at deny, with priority = -1) to the Tauri workspace manifest.
  • Opt the root package and each workspace member crate into workspace lints via [lints] workspace = true.

Comment thread src-tauri/Cargo.toml Outdated
The comment claimed a plain `cargo clippy` reproduces what CI enforces. It does not: CI lints
`--workspace --all-targets` and then makes a second pass with `--features mcp`, while a bare
`cargo clippy` sees one package, its default targets and its default features. A change can be
clippy-clean locally and red on CI without either the levels or this file being at fault.

The scope note already walked back the rustc-warning half of the claim and left the coverage half
standing, which is the more likely one to mislead — nobody reaches for `warnings = "deny"` by
accident, but plenty of people run `cargo clippy` from `src-tauri/` and believe it.
