Description

First off, thanks for the great tool! Secondly, I've been trying to add a severity to my restrictions:

I currently have

- modules:
  - {name: Unsafe.Linear, within: Ghegin.Core.*}

but this triggers a warning message, while I'd really like this to trigger an error message.

Is there a way to do that?

Thanks in advance.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check if hlint's configuration supports setting warning/error severity for restrictions. If not, the implementation likely requires adding an optional severity field to the restriction syntax and propagating it through the analysis pipeline.
