getreadystack/testimonial-lint-ftc-465 repository overview

⁠Testimonial Lint: FTC Fake Review Rule

Fake, placeholder and AI-drafted testimonials in landing-page code, checked against 16 CFR Part 465 (up to $53,088 per violation)

⁠Run

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/work getreadystack/testimonial-lint-ftc-465 /work/file

The same 11 rules as the VS Code extension, in a container. Mount a folder on /work.

⁠Free

• Free, no key: every one of the 11 checks runs on the open file in VS Code or on code pasted into the browser page - 1 placeholder reviewer names, 2 stock-photo avatars, 3 lorem-ipsum quotes, 4 TODO/fake/generated markers on testimonials, 5 hard-coded JSON-LD aggregateRating, 6 star ratings typed next to a quote, 7 static 'Verified Buyer' badges, 8 reviews filtered by rating, 9 rewards for a 5-star review, 10 disclosures hidden in a hover tooltip, 11 staff or founder testimonials - each finding with its line, its 16 CFR 465 section and the fix.
• --rules lists every rule

⁠With a licence ($29 once)

• Workspace sweep + evidence report: scans the whole workspace at once and exports a Markdown evidence report (file, line, 16 CFR 465 section, fix) for your lawyer or client. $29 once, one licence key per person or team seat.
