🔴 HIGH RISK

The Unicode escape sequences (e.g., \x{200b}) are likely to cause grep -P to fail when the -a flag is used or when null bytes are encountered, as the PCRE engine may not be in UTF-8 mode. Because stderr is redirected to /dev/null, this error will be hidden and the check will silently 'pass' without actually scanning the files. It is safer to use UTF-8 hex byte sequences to ensure compatibility.

⚪ LOW RISK

Nitpick: The -r flag is redundant here because find is already handling the file traversal. Also, consider using + instead of \; to execute grep once for multiple files, which significantly improves performance in large repositories.

Suggested change
-exec grep -aPrl "$PATTERNS" {} \; > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt 2>/dev/null
-exec grep -aPl "$PATTERNS" {} + > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt 2>/dev/null
