There was a problem hiding this comment.
Two suggestions on the Makefile, both verified locally: guard against an empty version (which the installer reads as "latest"), and fetch the install script at the pinned tag instead of HEAD.
CI used whatever golangci-lint release was latest, while the pre-commit hook used the binary from the developer's PATH, so results could drift. Pin the version in .golangci-lint-version, which the GitHub action reads via version-file. Locally, "make lint" installs that exact release to bin/ and the pre-commit hook now runs it. Pin v2.12.2, the newest release built with Go 1.26. Later releases are built with Go 1.27, and their bundled gofumpt formats code differently than go fmt from the Go version in go.mod.
