Use Craft Application's Linter Service
Metadata
Current evaluation
Refactor to migrate charmcraft's linters to craft-application's shared LinterService for consistent lint UX across craft apps. Triaged and open; upstream framework (craft-application#907) is merged, but no code changes yet and no human activity for ~7 months.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: The issue carries maintainer labels (Status: Triaged, Type: Refactor) and remains fully applicable: charmcraft still uses its own linters.py/AnalysisService with no LinterService usage, while the upstream dependency craft-application#907 (LinterService framework) has been merged, making the refactor actionable now. Inactivity (~7 months, bot-only comments) is notable but the work is not obsolete, so it should stay open rather than be closed as stale.
