Knip

Toggle: enabledChecks.knip · Fix: autofix.knip · Command: knip

Invokes Knip for unused files, exports, dependencies, and reachability. A finding means Knip cannot reach an item from its configured entry points and project model. Dynamic imports, plugins, and framework conventions can make that model incomplete.

Set tools.knip and use Knip’s native config where needed. Disable or scope the check when entry-point metadata is incomplete; review deletion suggestions.

Before — a dependency is declared but never imported:

{ "dependencies": { "unused-helper": "^1.0.0", "zod": "^4.0.0" } }

After — after verifying it is not used through dynamic loading or a plugin, remove the unused entry:

{ "dependencies": { "zod": "^4.0.0" } }

Knip reports reachability; review the finding before removing code or dependencies.
