deps-infer VS clj-kondo

My best suggestion here would be clj-kondo with flycheck-clj-kondo in Emacs. I really can't recommend it enough and would have killed to have it when I was learning Clojure. Not only will it underline all of those references to (now) undefined vars, but it can tell you about numerous little mistakes like mixing up arguments orders in (say) sequence functions, misplaced docstrings that get discarded, style conventions, etc. It's staggering how good it is even for a language as dynamic as Clojure.

The clj-kondo linters are worth reading.

Sure!

Spec: https://github.com/edn-format/edn

Example (linter config): https://github.com/clj-kondo/clj-kondo/blob/634294183a0aa2ca...

Clj-kondo doesn't produce an AST but you could easily combine the analysis output with the AST produced by rewrite-clj by matching on location.

But if you want full support, you can implement a hook: https://github.com/clj-kondo/clj-kondo/blob/master/doc/hooks.md

Please configure and use tools like clj-kondo and kibit. Kibit will report areas where you could write idiomatic clojure instead. Eg, it should catch all those (if (condition) true false) and ask you to replace it with (condition). Or if you really need a boolean value, use boolean to coerce it.

Try clj-kondo, a Clojure linter which will tell you about arity errors and more, before you even evaluate your code.
