🟡 MEDIUM RISK

The Narrow No-Break Space (\x{202f}) was removed during this refactor. Re-adding it and including modern BiDi isolate control characters ensures comprehensive coverage.

Include U+202F in the pattern.

The stated U+202A–U+202F coverage stops at \x{202e}. A file containing U+202F is not reported. Add \x{202f} or use a range.

⚪ LOW RISK

Suggestion: Using + instead of \; improves performance by batching files. The -r flag is redundant when processing individual files from find.

Add a separate raw leading-BOM check.

grep -aP can reject the \x{feff} pattern. Because set +e suppresses this failure, the results file can remain empty and report a false clean result. Inspect the first three bytes separately, then merge any match into /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt.

In @.github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml at line 145, Update the empty-lint scan
in the workflow to perform a separate raw leading-BOM check by inspecting the
first three bytes of each file, rather than relying on the \x{feff} pattern in
grep -aP. Merge any matching file paths into /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt while
preserving the existing scan behavior.
