Case Eight, a case picker, and a linter for the authoring traps
Case Eight — The Smell of Fear (1991). Act II, full colour. Five rooms, 100 points, verified at 100/100 with two verified deaths. The puzzle is identification: Meinheimer has an eidetic memory, so the double cannot be caught out on a fact — he can be caught out on a manner. Ask him two questions and he answers "about four hundred", "roughly", "give or take", and a man who remembers everything never says roughly. The catch is gated on having heard the approximations, so the player has to earn it. Accusing him without that is a death. Also in: the Blue Note, the SWAT tank through the wall into the zoo (which arms the lion that kills Hapsburg two rooms later), the mariachi infiltration, and a nuclear device disarmed by tripping over its power cable. tools/lint.py: three of the four bugs that cost real time here were the same class, and I walked into sets_flag-on-a-takeable twice — once in Case Ten, then again in Case Eight after documenting it. So the rules are a linter now, not a paragraph. It caught two live instances of that trap (case-08 blueprint, case-10 wig) and a scoring mismatch on the first run. All five cases lint clean and all five still win. play.sh is now a case picker: bare invocation lists the cases and asks, or pass a number. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## 9. `tools/lint.py` — the traps, encoded
|
||||
|
||||
Three of the four bugs that cost real debugging time in this project were the
|
||||
same *class* of mistake, and I walked into the `sets_flag`-on-a-takeable one
|
||||
twice — once in Case Ten, then again in Case Eight after writing it down. So the
|
||||
rules are now a linter rather than a paragraph:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 tools/lint.py # every case
|
||||
python3 tools/lint.py cases/... # one
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It checks, per case:
|
||||
|
||||
| Rule | Why it exists |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| `takeable` + `sets_flag` | `sets_flag` fires on **use**, never on **take** (`points` does both). The flag silently never sets and the gate it feeds never opens. |
|
||||
| One object name a prefix of another | The parser matches loosely — `ludwigdesk` shadowed `ludwig`, so `talk ludwig` addressed the furniture. |
|
||||
| Flag required but never set | Catches a typo'd `requires_flag` / `exit_flags` before it becomes an unwinnable case. |
|
||||
| Exit points at a room that doesn't exist | |
|
||||
| `exit_flags` set on an edge with no exit | |
|
||||
| Dialogue `goto` out of range | |
|
||||
| Sprite referenced but missing from `sprites/` | Otherwise it's a silent magenta box. |
|
||||
| Authored points **below** `max_score` | The target would be unreachable. (Above is fine — alternative dialogue branches awarding the same latched flag inflate the naive sum.) |
|
||||
|
||||
It does **not** check that every exit is walkable — that one still needs a real
|
||||
playthrough, because it depends on painted `Wall` bands (§7). Walk your exits.
