 - If the finding has no value-specific command, such as `side-tab`, prefer `ignore-file <path>` for the current file.
 - Use `ignore-rule <id>` only when the user asks to suppress that whole rule across the project. For broad overused-font suppression, use `ignore-rule overused-font --all-values` only when the user asks to ignore overused fonts generally.
-- Do not add source comments such as `impeccable: ignore`; inline comments pollute code and are not a supported suppression mechanism.
+- Prefer config ignores (the commands above) by default; they keep suppressions in one reviewable place. Reach for an inline comment only when the waiver must travel with a single file that leaves the repo (a generated/exported standalone document, an emailed HTML file). The supported marker is `impeccable-disable <rule>` (whole file) or `impeccable-disable-line` / `impeccable-disable-next-line` (one line), in any comment syntax, with an optional reason after `:` or `--`. The detector honors it by default; `--no-inline-ignores` or `--no-config` bypasses it.

+ * Inline, in-file ignore directives — eslint-disable-style waivers that live at

+ *
+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):
+ *
+ *   impeccable-disable <rule>[, <rule>...] [-- reason]   whole file
+ *   impeccable-disable-line <rule>...      [-- reason]   the same line

+ *   .brand { font-family: Inter; } /* impeccable-disable-line overused-font *\/
+ *   // impeccable-disable-next-line bounce-easing: intentional playful affordance
+ *
+ * Behavior is suppression, for parity with config ignores: a matched directive

+ * Inline, in-file ignore directives — eslint-disable-style waivers that live at

+ * an ignore in `.impeccable/config.json`.
+ *
+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):
+ *
+ *   impeccable-disable <rule>[, <rule>...] [-- reason]   whole file
+ *   impeccable-disable-line <rule>...      [-- reason]   the same line
+ *   impeccable-disable-next-line <rule>... [-- reason]   the following line
+ *   impeccable-disable                                   bare / `*` = every rule

+ *   <!-- impeccable-disable overused-font -- exported brand doc, font is first-party -->
+ *   .brand { font-family: Inter; } /* impeccable-disable-line overused-font *\/
+ *   // impeccable-disable-next-line bounce-easing: intentional playful affordance
+ *
+ * Behavior is suppression, for parity with config ignores: a matched directive

+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):

+ *
+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):
+ *
+ *   impeccable-disable <rule>[, <rule>...] [-- reason]   whole file
+ *   impeccable-disable-line <rule>...      [-- reason]   the same line

+ *   impeccable-disable                                   bare / `*` = every rule

+ *   .brand { font-family: Inter; } /* impeccable-disable-line overused-font *\/
+ *   // impeccable-disable-next-line bounce-easing: intentional playful affordance
+ *
+ * Behavior is suppression, for parity with config ignores: a matched directive

+ * Inline, in-file ignore directives — eslint-disable-style waivers that live at

+ * an ignore in `.impeccable/config.json`.
+ *
+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):
+ *
+ *   impeccable-disable <rule>[, <rule>...] [-- reason]   whole file
+ *   impeccable-disable-line <rule>...      [-- reason]   the same line
+ *   impeccable-disable-next-line <rule>... [-- reason]   the following line
+ *   impeccable-disable                                   bare / `*` = every rule
+ *

+ *
+ *   <!-- impeccable-disable overused-font -- exported brand doc, font is first-party -->
+ *   .brand { font-family: Inter; } /* impeccable-disable-line overused-font *\/
+ *   // impeccable-disable-next-line bounce-easing: intentional playful affordance
+ *
+ * Behavior is suppression, for parity with config ignores: a matched directive
+ * drops the finding. The inline reason is self-documenting in the diff; it is not
+ * required and is discarded at scan time (only used here to keep reason words out

+ * Inline, in-file ignore directives — eslint-disable-style waivers that live at

+ * an ignore in `.impeccable/config.json`.
+ *
+ * A config ignore is the right default for repo-wide policy. This complements it
+ * for the one case config can't cover: a waiver that belongs to a single file and
+ * needs to follow that file when it leaves the repo — a generated/exported
+ * standalone document, an emailed HTML file, a snippet scanned out of context.
+ *
+ * Comment-syntax-agnostic: the directive is a raw token matched anywhere on a
+ * line, so the same marker works across every comment style impeccable scans —
+ * `//`, `/* *\/`, `<!-- -->`, `#`, `{/* *\/}`, `{# #}`. Trailing comment closers
+ * are stripped before the rule list is parsed.
+ *
+ * Syntax (reason optional; eslint `--` or biome `:` separator):
+ *
+ *   impeccable-disable <rule>[, <rule>...] [-- reason]   whole file
+ *   impeccable-disable-line <rule>...      [-- reason]   the same line
+ *   impeccable-disable-next-line <rule>... [-- reason]   the following line
+ *   impeccable-disable                                   bare / `*` = every rule
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *
+ *   <!-- impeccable-disable overused-font -- exported brand doc, font is first-party -->
+ *   .brand { font-family: Inter; } /* impeccable-disable-line overused-font *\/
+ *   // impeccable-disable-next-line bounce-easing: intentional playful affordance
+ *
+ * Behavior is suppression, for parity with config ignores: a matched directive
+ * drops the finding. The inline reason is self-documenting in the diff; it is not
+ * required and is discarded at scan time (only used here to keep reason words out
