Generated with Claude Code, tested and reviewed by me. This was one of the most time-consuming rules on the vscode codebase before this change (oxlint 1.71.0), and drops considerably after this change.

The run method had an OR pattern arm that the codegen didn't understand, so that was split. The run method also had a wildcard arm that was non-empty, which caused linter_codegen to bail out of detecting what NODE_TYPES were worth checking. Removing that allows linter_codegen to generate the NODE_TYPES properly and limit this rule to only running on relevant files/nodes.

Simple Comparison

Before (npx oxlint --debug=timings --quiet -W all on vscode repo):

Result: 15,251,059 calls down to 2,938,968 (80.7% fewer calls).

I've re-run this a number of times and confirmed that the time savings are consistent thanks to the reduction in call count.

Running the before/after on the VS Code repo with just this rule enabled also results in the same exact # of lint violations being found, and all existing tests pass.

We should probably consider either updating the codegen to handle ORs in AST node arms, or else look for other usages of this pattern to fix them.

…ode types

The rule's `run` used a non-empty wildcard arm and an OR-pattern arm, which
prevented `linter_codegen` from deriving `NODE_TYPES`, so the rule was
dispatched to every node in the AST. Rewrite `run` as a flat match with one
bare `AstKind::Variant(_)` arm per node type and an empty `_ => {}`, letting
codegen emit the 7 concrete node types the rule cares about. Also add a cheap
always-allowed early-out in `check_member` before walking the object expression.

… key helper

Move each match arm's condition into an arm guard (the codegen's match
detector collects the AST type regardless of guards, so NODE_TYPES is
unaffected) and collapse the repetitive method/object/field bodies into a
shared `check_property_key` helper.

…n on specific node types (#23871)

Generated with Claude Code, reviewed and tested by me.

Similar concept to #23868 and #23867, gates the following rules behind
specific AST Nodes in their `run` methods to ensure that the rules are
only applied when the corresponding AST Node is present.

Most of these regressed when the jest-vitest rules were split into
separate rule files, and the AST Node codegen isn't smart enough to
handle the separation, so the codegen ran these rules on every node in
the entire codebase.

Narrow each rule's `run` to the node kinds it actually handles so
codegen generates the correct `NODE_TYPES`:

- jest/vitest require-hook            -> [CallExpression, Program]
- jest/vitest prefer-mock-promise-shorthand -> [CallExpression]
- jest/vitest prefer-mock-return-shorthand  -> [CallExpression]

On the vscode codebase, this cuts each rule's invocations from 15.25M to
870-880K (~17x fewer calls) with no behavior change.

Before:

```

```

vitest/prefer-mock-promise-shorthand      13.962      5.7%  870119  native
```

Overall: 91,506,354 calls down to 5,243,990 calls, a 94.3% reduction.

I also tried this change with promise/always-return, which has the same
problem, but changing it resulted in a very minor difference in the code
behavior for the VS Code repo (which our tests did not catch), and so I
left that alone for now.

All of these were verified by the tests passing and the violations
before and after matching on the VS Code codebase.

The one downside here is that the rules now duplicate the `node.kind()`
guard check that exists in the `run` method each one calls. We can also
remove the guards from the shared `run` methods if preferred.

…evant node types (#23868)

Similar to the change in #23867. 

This was generated using Claude Code after I noticed this rule was one
of the slowest on the vscode repo. The change was reviewed and tested by
me, all violations in the vscode codebase are identical before and after
this change, and all tests pass before and after, behavior should be
identical.

---

Claude's explanation of the change:

The rule's `run` called `run_on_regex_node` and then did its own `match
node.kind()` returning a tuple, so no `linter_codegen` detector fired
and `NODE_TYPES` was derived as `None`. This PR rewrites `run` to a flat
`match node.kind()` with one bare `AstKind::Variant(_)` arm per node
type and an empty `_ => {}`, letting codegen emit the 3 concrete node
types the rule cares about (`RegExpLiteral`, `CallExpression`,
`NewExpression`).

~~Also dedupe the `is_regexp_callee` check, which previously ran twice
per Call/New expression (once inside `run_on_regex_node`'s guard, once
before `check_static_arguments`). The new `check_regexp_call` helper
checks it once, then runs `run_on_arguments` for directly-supported args
and `check_static_arguments` for concatenated static strings —
behavior-identical, since `run_on_regex_node` for Call/New is itself `if
is_regexp_callee { run_on_arguments(..) }`.~~

----

Results from running `oxlint --debug=timings --quiet -A all
-D="eslint/prefer-named-capture-group"` on the vscode repo are below.

Before:
```
Rule timings:
Rule                                Time (ms)  Relative     Calls  Source
---------------------------------  ----------  --------  --------  ------

After:

---------------------------------  ----------  --------  ------  ------
eslint/prefer-named-capture-group      25.791    100.0%  954008  native
```

The # of calls decreases by 93.7% on the vscode repo (from 15,251,059 to
954,008). The rule very consistently returns timings of 20-30ms now on
my Mac.

… run only on less common node types (#23897)

Somewhat similar to #23867 and #23868.

This was generated using Claude Code after I noticed this rule was one
of the slowest on the vscode repo. I have reviewed and tested the change
by running it on the vscode codebase, and the # of violations before and
after is identical. All tests also pass.

I've also had Claude run a battery of tests on code it generated to test
as many scenarios as possible, to ensure that there were no differences
in output on main vs. this branch, and confirmed that there were indeed
no differences.

## What changed

The rule's `NODE_TYPES` were already derived, but two of them —
`IdentifierName` and `IdentifierReference` — are among the most common
node types in any program (every property name, every variable read).
The destructuring cases dispatched on those identifiers and then walked
*up* to their parents to detect destructuring patterns.

This PR instead dispatches directly on the rare parent nodes and reads
the key/binding:

| Old dispatch (common) | New dispatch (rare) | Covers |
|---|---|---|
| `IdentifierName` | `BindingProperty` (key) +
`AssignmentTargetPropertyProperty` (name) | `const {innerText} = node`,
`({innerText: text} = node)` |
| `IdentifierReference` | `AssignmentTargetPropertyIdentifier` (binding)
| `({innerText} = node)` |

`StaticMemberExpression` (`node.innerText`) is unchanged.

## Why it's behavior-identical

- The only `IdentifierName` that can be a direct child of
`BindingProperty`/`AssignmentTargetPropertyProperty` is the key (values
bottom out in `BindingIdentifier`/`IdentifierReference`). The old
grandparent set always matched
(`ObjectPattern`/`ObjectAssignmentTarget`), so that branch always fired
— matching the new unconditional trigger. Matching only
`PropertyKey::StaticIdentifier` preserves the computed-key exclusion
(`{[innerText]: text}`).
- The `AssignmentTargetPropertyIdentifier` arm keeps the same
parent-of-`ObjectAssignmentTarget` check. The old non-APTI path was
dead: a rest target (`({...innerText} = node)`) goes through
`AssignmentTargetRest`, never a direct `ObjectAssignmentTarget` child.

The rule test snapshot is byte-identical (no `.snap` change).

…s are present (#23867)

Generated with Claude Code, tested and reviewed by me. This was one of
the most time-consuming rules on the vscode codebase before this change
(oxlint 1.71.0), and drops considerably after this change.

The `run` method had an OR pattern arm that the codegen didn't
understand, so that was split. The `run` method also had a wildcard arm
that was non-empty, which caused linter_codegen to bail out of detecting
what NODE_TYPES were worth checking. Removing that allows linter_codegen
to generate the NODE_TYPES properly and limit this rule to only running
on relevant files/nodes.

**Simple Comparison**

Before (`npx oxlint --debug=timings --quiet -W all` on vscode repo):

```
Rule                                                      Time (ms)  Relative     Calls  Source
-------------------------------------------------------  ----------  --------  --------  ------
eslint/no-underscore-dangle                                 259.949      5.3%  15251059  native
```

After:

```
Rule timings:
Rule                                                      Time (ms)  Relative     Calls  Source
-------------------------------------------------------  ----------  --------  --------  ------
eslint/no-underscore-dangle                                 115.713      2.0%   2938968  native
```

Result: `15,251,059` calls down to `2,938,968` (80.7% fewer calls).

I've re-run this a number of times and confirmed that the time savings
are consistent thanks to the reduction in call count.

Running the before/after on the VS Code repo with just this rule enabled
also results in the same exact # of lint violations being found, and all
existing tests pass.

We should probably consider either updating the codegen to handle ORs in
AST node arms, or else look for other usages of this pattern to fix
them.

…n on specific node types (#23871)

Generated with Claude Code, reviewed and tested by me.

Similar concept to #23868 and #23867, gates the following rules behind
specific AST Nodes in their `run` methods to ensure that the rules are
only applied when the corresponding AST Node is present.

Most of these regressed when the jest-vitest rules were split into
separate rule files, and the AST Node codegen isn't smart enough to
handle the separation, so the codegen ran these rules on every node in
the entire codebase.

Narrow each rule's `run` to the node kinds it actually handles so
codegen generates the correct `NODE_TYPES`:

- jest/vitest require-hook            -> [CallExpression, Program]
- jest/vitest prefer-mock-promise-shorthand -> [CallExpression]
- jest/vitest prefer-mock-return-shorthand  -> [CallExpression]

On the vscode codebase, this cuts each rule's invocations from 15.25M to
870-880K (~17x fewer calls) with no behavior change.

Before:

```
Rule timings:
Rule                                   Time (ms)  Relative     Calls  Source
------------------------------------  ----------  --------  --------  ------
jest/require-hook                        250.566     15.6%  15251059  native
vitest/require-hook                      247.498     15.4%  15251059  native
jest/prefer-mock-promise-shorthand       223.433     13.9%  15251059  native
jest/prefer-mock-return-shorthand        222.515     13.8%  15251059  native

vitest/prefer-mock-return-shorthand      218.652     13.6%  15251059  native
```

After:

```
Rule timings:
Rule                                   Time (ms)  Relative   Calls  Source
------------------------------------  ----------  --------  ------  ------
jest/require-hook                         92.802     37.9%  881757  native
vitest/require-hook                       79.677     32.5%  881757  native
jest/prefer-mock-promise-shorthand        19.238      7.9%  870119  native

vitest/prefer-mock-promise-shorthand      13.962      5.7%  870119  native
```

Overall: 91,506,354 calls down to 5,243,990 calls, a 94.3% reduction.

I also tried this change with promise/always-return, which has the same
problem, but changing it resulted in a very minor difference in the code
behavior for the VS Code repo (which our tests did not catch), and so I
left that alone for now.

All of these were verified by the tests passing and the violations
before and after matching on the VS Code codebase.

The one downside here is that the rules now duplicate the `node.kind()`
guard check that exists in the `run` method each one calls. We can also
remove the guards from the shared `run` methods if preferred.

…evant node types (#23868)

Similar to the change in #23867. 

This was generated using Claude Code after I noticed this rule was one
of the slowest on the vscode repo. The change was reviewed and tested by
me, all violations in the vscode codebase are identical before and after
this change, and all tests pass before and after, behavior should be
identical.

---

Claude's explanation of the change:

The rule's `run` called `run_on_regex_node` and then did its own `match
node.kind()` returning a tuple, so no `linter_codegen` detector fired
and `NODE_TYPES` was derived as `None`. This PR rewrites `run` to a flat
`match node.kind()` with one bare `AstKind::Variant(_)` arm per node
type and an empty `_ => {}`, letting codegen emit the 3 concrete node
types the rule cares about (`RegExpLiteral`, `CallExpression`,
`NewExpression`).

~~Also dedupe the `is_regexp_callee` check, which previously ran twice
per Call/New expression (once inside `run_on_regex_node`'s guard, once
before `check_static_arguments`). The new `check_regexp_call` helper
checks it once, then runs `run_on_arguments` for directly-supported args
and `check_static_arguments` for concatenated static strings —
behavior-identical, since `run_on_regex_node` for Call/New is itself `if
is_regexp_callee { run_on_arguments(..) }`.~~

----

Results from running `oxlint --debug=timings --quiet -A all
-D="eslint/prefer-named-capture-group"` on the vscode repo are below.

Before:
```
Rule timings:
Rule                                Time (ms)  Relative     Calls  Source
---------------------------------  ----------  --------  --------  ------
eslint/prefer-named-capture-group     239.165    100.0%  15251059  native
```

After:
```
Rule timings:
Rule                                Time (ms)  Relative   Calls  Source
---------------------------------  ----------  --------  ------  ------
eslint/prefer-named-capture-group      25.791    100.0%  954008  native
```

The # of calls decreases by 93.7% on the vscode repo (from 15,251,059 to
954,008). The rule very consistently returns timings of 20-30ms now on
my Mac.

… run only on less common node types (#23897)

Somewhat similar to #23867 and #23868.

This was generated using Claude Code after I noticed this rule was one
of the slowest on the vscode repo. I have reviewed and tested the change
by running it on the vscode codebase, and the # of violations before and
after is identical. All tests also pass.

I've also had Claude run a battery of tests on code it generated to test
as many scenarios as possible, to ensure that there were no differences
in output on main vs. this branch, and confirmed that there were indeed
no differences.

## What changed

The rule's `NODE_TYPES` were already derived, but two of them —
`IdentifierName` and `IdentifierReference` — are among the most common
node types in any program (every property name, every variable read).
The destructuring cases dispatched on those identifiers and then walked
*up* to their parents to detect destructuring patterns.

This PR instead dispatches directly on the rare parent nodes and reads
the key/binding:

| Old dispatch (common) | New dispatch (rare) | Covers |
|---|---|---|
| `IdentifierName` | `BindingProperty` (key) +
`AssignmentTargetPropertyProperty` (name) | `const {innerText} = node`,
`({innerText: text} = node)` |
| `IdentifierReference` | `AssignmentTargetPropertyIdentifier` (binding)
| `({innerText} = node)` |

`StaticMemberExpression` (`node.innerText`) is unchanged.

## Why it's behavior-identical

- The only `IdentifierName` that can be a direct child of
`BindingProperty`/`AssignmentTargetPropertyProperty` is the key (values
bottom out in `BindingIdentifier`/`IdentifierReference`). The old
grandparent set always matched
(`ObjectPattern`/`ObjectAssignmentTarget`), so that branch always fired
— matching the new unconditional trigger. Matching only
`PropertyKey::StaticIdentifier` preserves the computed-key exclusion
(`{[innerText]: text}`).
- The `AssignmentTargetPropertyIdentifier` arm keeps the same
parent-of-`ObjectAssignmentTarget` check. The old non-APTI path was
dead: a rest target (`({...innerText} = node)`) goes through
`AssignmentTargetRest`, never a direct `ObjectAssignmentTarget` child.

The rule test snapshot is byte-identical (no `.snap` change).

## Results

Running `oxlint --debug=timings --quiet -A all -W
unicorn/prefer-dom-node-text-content` on the vscode repo.

Before:
```
Found 245 warnings and 47 errors.

Rule                                   Time (ms)  Relative    Calls  Source
------------------------------------  ----------  --------  -------  ------
unicorn/prefer-dom-node-text-content     116.624    100.0%  5996077  native
```

After:
```
Found 245 warnings and 47 errors.

Rule                                   Time (ms)  Relative    Calls  Source
------------------------------------  ----------  --------  -------  ------

Violations are unchanged (245 warnings, 47 errors). Calls drop 76%
(5,996,077 → 1,437,765) and rule time drops ~80% (116ms → 23ms).
