Custom Rule Messages Feature

When specified, the custom message replaces the default rule description in scan results.

Example configuration:

  "rules": {
    "invalid-naming-convention": {
      "message": "Flow names should follow the team naming pattern for clarity."
    }
  }
}

Improved default severities

We’ve also updated the default severity levels and descriptions for several rules to better reflect their impact and help prioritize:

• ActionCallsInLoop → now Warning (was Error)
• ProcessBuilder → now Error (was Warning)
• MissingMetadataDescription → now Warning (was Error)
• RecordIdAsString → now Warning (was Error)
