This tool is designed for developers and teams who need to enforce coding standards incrementally within a project using version control. It integrates PHP Code Sniffer (PHPCS) to analyze code, but its core function is to limit the analysis to the lines of code changed between two revisions, such as in a commit or pull request. This approach is particularly valuable when introducing coding standards to an established project where fixing all legacy violations at once is impractical.

• Targeted Code Analysis: The tool checks only the lines of code that were added or modified in a specified revision range. This prevents overwhelming reports with pre-existing issues that are not part of the current changeset.
• Version Control Backend Support: It works with both Subversion (SVN) and Git repositories, allowing it to integrate into different development workflows and legacy projects.
• Command-Line Interface: The primary interface is a WP-CLI command, making it suitable for automation in continuous integration (CI) pipelines or local development scripts.
• Configurable PHPCS Integration: You can specify the path to your PHPCS executable and coding standards, ensuring compatibility with your project's specific configuration and rulesets.
• Focused Reporting: By isolating new violations, it provides clear, actionable feedback to developers, encouraging incremental improvement of code quality without blocking progress on new features.
