So what is it?

Pyrid is a linter for Python code. A linter is a tool that reads your source files and flags problems, such as style violations, unused variables, or code that might behave unexpectedly, without actually running the program. You install pyrid with a single pip command and then point it at your Python files. The README is very sparse and does not describe what specific rules pyrid checks, how to configure it, or how its output compares to established Python linters like flake8 or pylint. The project targets Python 3.14 and is released under the MIT license.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I want to add pyrid as a linter to my Python project, show me how to install it with pip and run it against my source files.
Prompt 2
Write a pre-commit hook that runs pyrid on all staged Python files and blocks commits if there are errors.
Prompt 3
Compare pyrid to flake8 and pylint: when would I choose pyrid over the others for a Python 3.14 project?
