C/C++ tools not recognised: cmake-format/gersemi, astyle, Coverity Scan, scan-build as an analyzer job, OpenCppCoverage, uncrustify, tools driven by `zig build`, MinGW hardening flags

Start in the project_validator/ package, where the grep -rn cmake-format project_validator/ check finds nothing, and find how the C/C++ profile detects formatters, static analyzers, coverage tools and hardening flags. Each listed tool needs a recognition rule and a note or WARN credit, with the nlohmann astyle message corrected. Done means the corpus cases named in the issue now produce the expected results, and the existing tests still pass.

fmt's CI job formats CMake files with cmake-format and fails on a diff (invisible); nlohmann/json defines its style in tools/astyle/.astylerc and CI fails when astyle changes the headers ("formatting is not defined" is wrong even if astyle stays unsupported); dbus-broker, nlohmann and glib run Coverity Scan jobs; glib and neovim run the Clang Static Analyzer (scan-build) as a CI job ("no static analyzer runs"); cmake_template and Catch2 run OpenCppCoverage on Windows (--export_type cobertura:); neovim runs clang-tidy and uncrustify through zig build targets in build.zig, and emmylua_check for Lua types; glfw links the MinGW equivalents of /DYNAMICBASE/DEP.

Evidence from the corpus audit

fmtlib/fmt, cpp-best-practices/cmake_template / code-formatting (cmake-format)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: no mention; fmt's CI job that formats CMake files and fails on a diff is invisible.
• expected: cmake-format (cmakelang) / gersemi recognised as CMake-file formatters, at least as evidence.
• evidence: fmt .github/workflows/lint.yml:33 cmake-format:; :43-45: find . -name CMakeLists.txt -o -name '*.cmake' | \ / xargs cmake-format -i / git diff --exit-code; fmt .cmake-format; cmake_template
  .cmake-format.yaml. grep -rn cmake-format project_validator/ finds nothing.
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: high

nlohmann/json / code-formatting (astyle)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: FAIL: "C/C++: no clang-format configuration found; formatting is not defined"
• expected: the project defines its style in tools/astyle/.astylerc and CI fails when astyle changes the
  amalgamated headers (check_amalgamation.yml -> ci_test_amalgamation); "formatting is not defined" is wrong even
  if astyle stays unsupported.
• evidence: cmake/ci.cmake:446: COMMAND venv_astyle/bin/astyle --project=tools/astyle/.astylerc --suffix=none ${include_dir}/json.hpp ...; Makefile:90: ASTYLE=tools/astyle/venv/bin/astyle; .github/workflows/check_amalgamation.yml.
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: high

bus1/dbus-broker, nlohmann/json / static-analysis (Coverity Scan)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: dbus-broker "C/C++: no static analyzer runs"
• expected: Coverity Scan is a static analyzer common in C projects; a scheduled make coverity-scan /
  cov-build job deserves at least a WARN-level credit.
• evidence: dbus-broker .github/workflows/coverity.yml:48: run: make coverity-scan; :51: run: make coverity-upload
  (targets in the top-level Makefile); nlohmann README shows a Coverity Scan badge (status-badges names it).
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: medium

cpp-best-practices/cmake_template, catchorg/Catch2 / coverage (OpenCppCoverage)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: no mention of the Windows coverage runs (cmake_template PASSes on gcovr anyway; Catch2's appveyor is
  heuristic).
• expected: OpenCppCoverage (--export_type cobertura:) recognised as a Windows coverage tool.
• evidence: cmake_template .github/workflows/ci.yml:185: OpenCppCoverage.exe --export_type cobertura:coverage.xml --cover_children -- ctest -C ${{matrix.build_type}}; Catch2 appveyor.yml:22:
  .\tools\misc\installOpenCppCoverage.ps1.
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: medium

GNOME/glib, neovim/neovim / static-analysis (scan-build, Coverity)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: glib FAIL "C/C++: no static analyzer runs"; neovim FAIL "clang-tidy is configured (.clang-tidy) but does not run"
• expected: note only: both run the Clang Static Analyzer (scan-build) as a CI job, and glib has a Coverity job; the C/C++ profile accepts only clang-tidy and cppcheck.
• evidence: glib .gitlab-ci.yml:1140: - SCANBUILD="$(pwd)/.gitlab-ci/scan-build.sh" ninja -C _scan_build scan-build; :1175: "${HOME}"/cov-analysis-linux64-*/bin/cov-build --dir cov-int meson compile -C _coverity_build; neovim .github/workflows/test.yml:135: - run: cmake --build build --target clang-analyzer.
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: high

neovim/neovim / tools driven by zig build, uncrustify, emmylua

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: static-analysis "clang-tidy is configured (.clang-tidy) but does not run"; code-formatting "C/C++: .clang-format is defined but CI does not run clang-format"; type-checking "Lua: lua-language-server is configured (.luarc.json) but does not run"
• expected: note only: clang-tidy and the C formatter (uncrustify, not clang-format) run through zig build targets defined in build.zig; Lua type checking runs with emmylua_check (emmylua-check target, .emmyrc.json), not lua-language-server.
• evidence: .github/workflows/test.yml:61: run: zig build lintc-clang-tidy $OPTS; :65: run: zig build lintc-uncrustify $OPTS; :109: run: cmake --build build --target emmylua-check; src/nvim/CMakeLists.txt:966-967: COMMAND ${UNCRUSTIFY_PRG} / FLAGS -c ${UNCRUSTIFY_CONFIG} -q --check; .emmyrc.json; build.zig.
• repro: n/a (gap; build.zig needs a Zig evaluator)
• confidence: high

glfw/glfw / hardening (MinGW link flags)

• kind: UNSUPPORTED
• actual: FAIL: "no hardening options found; ... /DYNAMICBASE, /CETCOMPAT"
• expected: note only: the MinGW equivalents of /DYNAMICBASE and DEP are linked when available.
• evidence: src/CMakeLists.txt:300: target_link_libraries(glfw PRIVATE "-Wl,--nxcompat"); :309: target_link_libraries(glfw PRIVATE "-Wl,--dynamicbase"); :318: target_link_libraries(glfw PRIVATE "-Wl,--high-entropy-va").
• repro: n/a (gap)
• confidence: low

Found by the regression-corpus audit (235 real repositories, one or more per ecosystem profile; corpus and expected results in corpus/). Evidence is quoted from the audited checkouts at the commits pinned in corpus/projects.toml; <checkouts>/<owner>__<repo> is such a checkout.
