  description: The free Qlty CLI is a polyglot, Rust-based command-line tool for universal
    linting, auto-formatting, security scanning, code smells, duplication, and maintainability
    metrics. It runs 70+ static analysis tools across 40+ languages natively (no Docker),
    is configured via a .qlty/qlty.toml file, and is free for all use including commercial
    projects. The CLI is a local developer tool, not an HTTP API; key commands include
    qlty init, qlty check, qlty fmt, qlty smells, qlty metrics, and qlty coverage publish.

  description: Coverage publishing is performed by the Qlty CLI command qlty coverage
    publish, which uploads test coverage reports to Qlty Cloud from a CI pipeline.
    It authenticates with a per-project QLTY_COVERAGE_TOKEN environment variable and
    accepts standard report formats including lcov, Cobertura, Clover, JaCoCo, SimpleCov,
    dotCover, and xccov-json. Qlty does not publish a documented public REST endpoint
    for coverage upload; ingestion is handled through the CLI / GitHub Action.

    than a documented public REST API; no public HTTP API surface is published as of
