PSScriptAnalyzer (PSSA) VS-code integration & customization Compatibility Analysis
summary
PSScriptAnalyzer integrates into VS Code via PowerShell Editor Services and actually shows which rules run, how to enable all rules by default by checking in a PSScriptAnalyzerSettings.psd1, and how to package compatibility profiles JSON to get per-OS and per-PS-version warnings. Demos show autofixable suggestions, pipeline indentation and casing fixes, and custom rules (InjectionHunter example) that return diagnostic records with custom rules with suggested corrections. Engine is a binary .NET Standard module, cold-run performance is about twice as fast in the shown release.
