Look at existing rules in the write good codebase, such as 'weasel.js' or 'too wordy.js', to understand the pattern for adding a new rule. The rule should detect the word 'very' and suggest alternatives (e.g., 'very big' > 'huge'). Check the issue comments for any proposed implementation details. Then implement the rule and add corresponding tests.
