v1.2.0 — legacy_facts fix by @hbro

First Community Contribution! 🎉

Thanks to @hbro (Hans Broeckx) for this excellent contribution!

Fixed

• legacy_facts false positives on local variables — The check no longer flags class/define parameters or lambda block parameters that happen to share names with legacy facts ($path, $type, $os, etc.). Previously, any variable with a legacy fact name would trigger a warning, even when it was clearly a locally-scoped parameter with no relation to facts.

  The fix adds a pre-scan phase that collects all locally declared variable names from:

  • Class and defined type parameter lists
  • Lambda block parameter lists (|$var|)

  These local variables are then excluded from the legacy fact check, eliminating false positives while still correctly detecting actual legacy fact references.
