MANICHECK(1)

💖 MANICHECK(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the General Commands Manual section, and today's main character is manicheck — she's a lil script with one job and she does it flawlessly, no cap ✨

✨ NAME ✨

manicheck — check manifest accuracy 🧚

like, does your manifest actually match reality? she'll tell you 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

manicheck

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no flags, no args, no drama 🙈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕ — Manicheck compares the files listed in your MANIFEST.new (or, if that file isn't there, your MANIFEST) against the files that are actually in your distribution. vibe check, but for filenames 💀

she will report:

• files that are listed in the manifest but not present 😭
• files that are missing from your manifest file 🙈

that's the whole thing. she's not complicated, she's just honest 🫶

🎀 FILES 🎀

Manicheck produces the following temporary files:

• check.expected — lists filenames from manifest ✨
• check.present — lists all potential source files ✨

and if MANIFEST is not 100% accurate (rip 💀), these ones may also show up:

• check.extra — files not listed in manifest
• check.want — files missing from manifest

ngl, if you see check.extra or check.want appear, that's your sign that the manifest needs a glow-up 💅
