─────────────────────────────────────────────
Hi @contributor,

Thank you for your submission! Unfortunately, I can't approve this
component in its current state due to several critical issues:

🔴 CRITICAL - Security Vulnerability
Your agent executes arbitrary shell commands from user input:
```markdown
bash -c "${user_input}"
```

This is a serious security risk (remote code execution). Please:
- Remove arbitrary command execution
- Use an allowlist of safe commands
- Implement strict input validation
- See: docs/security-best-practices.md

🔴 BLOCKER - No Tests
Your component has no tests. Our requirements:
- Minimum 70% code coverage
- Unit tests for core functionality
- Integration tests with context

Please:
- Create tests/ directory
- Add comprehensive test suite
- Run: oac test create agent:your-agent
- See: docs/testing-guide.md

🔴 BLOCKER - Missing Documentation
Your README lacks usage examples. Our requirements:
- Minimum 3 complete examples
- Show expected inputs/outputs
- Include edge cases

Please:
- Add ## Examples section to README
- Include 3+ detailed examples
- See: docs/documentation-guide.md

🔴 BLOCKER - No License
Please add a LICENSE file and specify in oac.json.
Recommended licenses: MIT, Apache-2.0

───────────────────────────────

I've blocked publication until these issues are addressed. Please
resubmit when fixed. Happy to help if you have questions!

```bash
# Auto-lint component before submission
oac lint agent:my-agent

⚡ Linting agent:my-agent...

📋 Structure:
  ✅ Valid YAML frontmatter
  ✅ Required sections present
  ✅ Proper markdown formatting
  ⚠️  Inconsistent heading levels (auto-fix available)

🎨 Style:
  ✅ Naming conventions followed
  ⚠️  Line length exceeds 100 chars (3 locations)
  ✅ No trailing whitespace
  ⚠️  Inconsistent list formatting

📝 Content:
  ✅ Description clear and concise
  ✅ Examples follow template
  ⚠️  TODO comments found (2 locations)

? Auto-fix issues? (Y/n) y

✓ Fixed 5 issues
⚠️ 2 issues require manual review

Remaining issues:
1. Line 45: Remove TODO comment before submission
2. Line 78: Remove TODO comment before submission

? Open in editor to fix? (Y/n)
```

#### Pre-commit Hooks
```bash
# Install pre-commit hooks for contributors
oac hooks install

✓ Installed pre-commit hooks:
  - Lint component files
  - Run tests
  - Check for secrets
  - Validate structure
  - Format markdown

Now, before every commit:
  1. Components will be linted
  2. Tests will run
  3. Security checks will run
  4. Commit will fail if issues found

? Enable auto-fix on commit? (Y/n) y
✓ Auto-fix enabled (will fix and re-commit)
```

#### Automated Formatting
```bash
# Format component to match standards
oac format agent:my-agent

⚡ Formatting agent:my-agent...

Applying style:
  ✓ Markdown formatting
  ✓ Heading hierarchy
  ✓ List consistency
  ✓ Code block formatting
  ✓ Link formatting
  ✓ Table formatting

✓ Formatted successfully
✓ Changes saved

? Show diff? (Y/n) y

[Shows before/after diff]
```

#### Template Enforcement
```typescript
interface ComponentTemplate {
  sections: Section[];
  required: string[];
  optional: string[];
  order: string[];
}

const agentTemplate: ComponentTemplate = {
  sections: [
    {
      name: 'frontmatter',
      required: true,
      schema: {
        name: 'string',
        version: 'semver',
        description: 'string',
        author: 'string',
        license: 'string'
      }
    },
    {
      name: 'description',
      required: true,
      minLength: 50,
      maxLength: 500
    },
    {
      name: 'usage',
      required: true,
      subsections: ['installation', 'configuration', 'examples']
    },
    {
      name: 'examples',
      required: true,
      minExamples: 3
    },
    {
      name: 'api',
      required: false
    },
    {
      name: 'troubleshooting',
      required: false
    }
  ],
  required: ['frontmatter', 'description', 'usage', 'examples'],
  optional: ['api', 'troubleshooting', 'faq'],
  order: ['frontmatter', 'description', 'usage', 'examples', 'api', 'troubleshooting', 'faq']
};
```

**Result**:
- ✅ 100% of submissions follow standard format
- ⬇️ 90% reduction in formatting-related review comments
- ⬆️ Faster reviews (maintainers focus on content, not style)
