Complete rewrite of output format:
1. PRIORITY FILES section:
- Shows files with CRITICAL/HIGH issues sorted by count
- Breaks down severity per file: "file.sh (CRITICAL: 2, HIGH: 5)"
- Calculates coverage: "Fix top 3 files = 50% of issues"
- Immediately answers: "Which files should I fix first?"
2. HIGH ISSUES grouped BY FILE:
- Shows first 3 issues per file with line numbers
- Displays total count: "file.sh (12 issues)"
- Groups related issues together for batch fixing
- Much easier to work through file-by-file
3. QUICK WINS section:
- Shows patterns appearing 10+ times
- Provides fix description for each pattern
- Example: "15 × SOURCE - Add existence checks before sourcing"
- Identifies opportunities to fix many issues at once
4. MEDIUM/LOW collapsed:
- Single summary line (not pages of low-priority detail)
- Provides grep command to view when needed
Benefits for AI/human readers:
- Answers "where do I start?" immediately
- Groups issues by file (actionable context)
- Shows impact (% coverage of top files)
- Identifies patterns (fix 15 issues with one approach)
- Reduces noise (no pages of MEDIUM/LOW details)
- Clear hierarchy: PRIORITY → CRITICAL → HIGH → QUICK WINS
Output is now optimized for taking action, not just reporting.
