When checking a file with pyrefly, reveal_type already works fine without importing it from typing/typing_extensions, but an additional unknown-name diagnostic is emitted which makes it hard(er) to find the revealed type:
▶ cat test.py
reveal_type(1 + 1)
▶ pyrefly check test.py
ERROR `reveal_type` must be imported from `typing` for runtime usage [unknown-name]
--> test.py:1:1
|
1 | reveal_type(1 + 1)
| ^^^^^^^^^^^
|
INFO revealed type: int [reveal-type]
--> test.py:1:12
|
1 | reveal_type(1 + 1)
| -------
|
INFO 1 error
Other type checkers (mypy, pyrefly, ty) all suppress their version of the unknown-name diagnostic for reveal_type usages, or give users a way to suppress them in the config (without silencing all unknown-name diagnostics). This is a nice quality-of-life improvement when working with reveal_type as a debugging tool, especially if you have multiple reveal_type's in a single file.
