Check for writes to enclosing/global environments via <<- or ->>

Flags <<-/->> usage in R/. This operator writes to the nearest enclosing environment with an existing binding of the same name, or to .GlobalEnv if none exists – which the CRAN Repository Policy explicitly forbids. Package code that only uses <<- to update a variable in a known parent scope (e.g. a closure factory) is technically safe, but this check can't distinguish that case from an accidental global write without deeper scope analysis, so every use is flagged for review.

Usage

cl_check_global_env_write(path = ".")

Arguments

path

Path to the package root. Defaults to the current directory.

Value

A tibble following the cranlint check-result contract; see AGENTS.md.
