Research direction

Start with the rule-priority tiers in docs/rule-priority.md, then check the SuiteScript type definitions and Oracle documentation for record.submitFields and the load/setValue/save sequence. The issue leaves detection, false positives, fix support, severity, and preset placement open, so first agree on those choices before implementation. Done means a documented rule with settled detection and severity behavior, plus tests covering simple updates and relevant false positives.

Description

enhancement needs-triage

TODO: add a rule that prefers record.submitFields over record.load followed by setValue and save for simple field updates, to save governance.

Open questions for triage:

  • Confirm against the type definitions and Oracle docs (docs/rule-priority.md tiers) that this is preferable and what the exact replacement APIs are.
  • Detection approach and false-positive risks (e.g. script type via @NScriptType).
  • Whether to offer a fix.
  • Default severity and preset placement.
