+# args
+
+This rule validates if the task arguments conform with the plugin documentation.
+
+The rule validation will check if the option name is valid and has the correct
+value along with conditionals on the options like `mutually_exclusive`,
+`required_together`, `required_one_of` and so on.
+
+For more information see the
+[argument spec validator](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/module_utils.html#argumentspecvalidator)
+topic in the Ansible module utility documentation.
+
+Possible messages:
+
+- `args[module]` - missing required arguments: ...
+- `args[module]` - missing parameter(s) required by ...
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Fixture to validate module options failure scenarios
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Clone content repository
+      ansible.builtin.git: # <- Required option `repo` is missing.
+        dest: /home/www
+        accept_hostkey: true
+        version: master
+        update: false
+
+    - name: Enable service httpd and ensure it is not masked
+      ansible.builtin.systemd: # <- Missing 'name' parameter required by 'enabled'.
+        enabled: true
+        masked: false
+
+    - name: Use quiet to avoid verbose output
+      ansible.builtin.assert:
+        test:
+          - my_param <= 100
+          - my_param >= 0
+        quiet: invalid # <- Value for option `quiet` is invalid.
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Fixture to validate module options pass scenario
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Clone content repository
+      ansible.builtin.git: # <- Contains required option `repo`.
+        repo: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-examples
+        dest: /home/www
+        accept_hostkey: true
+        version: master
+        update: false
+
+    - name: Enable service httpd and ensure it is not masked
+      ansible.builtin.systemd: # <- Contains 'name' parameter required by 'enabled'.
+        name: httpd
+        enabled: false
+        masked: false
+
+    - name: Use quiet to avoid verbose output
+      ansible.builtin.assert:
+        that:
+          - my_param <= 100
+          - my_param >= 0
+        quiet: True # <- Has correct type value for option `quiet` which is boolean.
+```
+
+## Special cases
+
+In some complex cases where you are using jinja expressions, the linter may not
+able to fully validate all the possible values and report a false positive. The
+example below would usually report
+`parameters are mutually exclusive: data|file|keyserver|url` but because we
+added `# noqa: args[module]` it will just pass.
+
+```yaml
+- name: Add apt keys # noqa: args[module]
+  become: true
+  ansible.builtin.apt_key:
+    url: "{{ zj_item['url'] | default(omit) }}"
+    data: "{{ zj_item['data'] | default(omit) }}"
+  loop: "{{ repositories_keys }}"
+  loop_control:
+    loop_var: zj_item
+```

+# command-instead-of-module
+
+This rule will recommend you to use a specific ansible module instead for tasks
+that are better served by a module, as these are more reliable, provide better
+messaging and usually have additional features like the ability to retry.
+
+In the unlikely case that the rule triggers false positives, you can disable it
+by adding a comment like `# noqa: command-instead-of-module` to the same line.
+
+You can check the [source](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-lint/blob/main/src/ansiblelint/rules/command_instead_of_module.py)
+of the rule for all the known commands that trigger the rule and their allowed
+list arguments of exceptions and raise a pull request to improve them.

+# command-instead-of-shell
+
+This rule identifies uses of `shell` modules instead of a `command` one when
+this is not really needed. Shell is considerably slower than command and should
+be avoided unless there is a special need for using shell features, like
+environment variable expansion or chaining multiple commands using pipes.

+# empty-string-compare
+
+This rule checks for empty string comparison in playbooks.
+To ensure code clarity you should avoid using empty strings in conditional statements with the `when` clause.
+
+- Use `when: var | length > 0` instead of `when: var != ""`.
+- Use `when: var | length == 0` instead of `when: var == ""`.
+
+This is an opt-in rule.
+You must enable it in your Ansible-lint configuration as follows:
+
+```yaml
+enable_list:
+  - empty-string-compare
+```
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Shut down
+      ansible.builtin.command: /sbin/shutdown -t now
+      when: ansible_os_family == "" # <- Compares with an empty string.
+    - name: Shut down
+      ansible.builtin.command: /sbin/shutdown -t now
+      when: ansible_os_family !="" # <- Compares with an empty string.
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Shut down
+      ansible.builtin.shell: |

+# fqcn
+
+This rule checks for fully-qualified collection names (FQCN) in Ansible content.
+
+Declaring an FQCN ensures that an action uses code from the correct namespace.
+This avoids ambiguity and conflicts that can cause operations to fail or produce
+unexpected results.
+
+The `fqcn` rule has the following checks:
+
+- `fqcn[action]` - Use FQCN for module actions, such ...
+- `fqcn[action-core]` - Checks for FQCNs from the `ansible.legacy` or
+  `ansible.builtin` collection.
+- `fqcn[canonical]` - You should use canonical module name ... instead of ...
+- `fqcn[keyword]` - Avoid `collections` keyword by using FQCN for all plugins,
+  modules, roles and playbooks.
+
+!!! note
+
+    In most cases you should declare the `ansible.builtin` collection for internal Ansible actions.
+    You should declare the `ansible.legacy` collection if you use local overrides with actions, such with as the ``shell`` module.
+
+!!! warning
+
+    This rule does not take [`collections` keyword](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections_guide/collections_using_playbooks.html#simplifying-module-names-with-the-collections-keyword) into consideration for resolving content.
+    The `collections` keyword provided a temporary mechanism transitioning to Ansible 2.9.
+    You should rewrite any content that uses the `collections:` key and avoid it where possible.
+
+## Canonical module names
+
+Canonical module names are also known as **resolved module names** and they are
+to be preferred for most cases. Many Ansible modules have multiple aliases and
+redirects, as these were created over time while the content was refactored.
+Still, all of them do finally resolve to the same module name, but not without
+adding some performance overhead. As very old aliases are at some point removed,
+it makes to just refresh the content to make it point to the current canonical
+name.
+
+The only exception for using a canonical name is if your code still needs to be
+compatible with a very old version of Ansible, one that does not know how to
+resolve that name. If you find yourself in such a situation, feel free to add
+this rule to the ignored list.
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Create an SSH connection
+      shell: ssh ssh_user@{{ ansible_ssh_host }} # <- Does not use the FQCN for the shell module.
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook (1st solution)
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Create an SSH connection
+      # Use the FQCN for the legacy shell module and allow local overrides.
+      ansible.legacy.shell:
+        ssh ssh_user@{{ ansible_ssh_host }} -o IdentityFile=path/to/my_rsa
+```
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook (2nd solution)
+  hosts: all

+    - name: Create an SSH connection
+      # Use the FQCN for the builtin shell module.
+      ansible.builtin.shell: ssh ssh_user@{{ ansible_ssh_host }}

+# galaxy
+
+This rule identifies if the collection version mentioned in galaxy.yml is ideal
+in terms of the version number being greater than or equal to `1.0.0`.
+
+This rule looks for a changelog file in expected locations, detailed below in
+the Changelog Details section.
+
+This rule checks to see if the `galaxy.yml` file includes one of the required
+tags for certification on Automation Hub. Additional custom tags can be added,
+but one or more of these tags must be present for certification.
+
+The tag list is as follows: `application`, `cloud`,`database`, `infrastructure`,
+`linux`, `monitoring`, `networking`, `security`,`storage`, `tools`, `windows`.
+
+This rule can produce messages such:
+
+- `galaxy[version-missing]` - `galaxy.yaml` should have version tag.
+- `galaxy[version-incorrect]` - collection version should be greater than or
+  equal to `1.0.0`
+- `galaxy[no-changelog]` - collection is missing a changelog file in expected
+  locations.
+- `galaxy[tags]` - `galaxy.yaml` must have one of the required tags:
+  `application`, `cloud`, `database`, `infrastructure`, `linux`, `monitoring`,
+  `networking`, `security`, `storage`, `tools`, `windows`.
+
+If you want to ignore some of the messages above, you can add any of them to the
+`ignore_list`.
+

+
+# Changelog Details
+
+This rule expects a `CHANGELOG.md` or `.rst` file in the collection root or a

+
+If a `changelogs/changelog.yaml` file exists, the schema will be checked.

+# ignore-errors
+
+This rule checks that playbooks do not use the `ignore_errors` directive to ignore all errors.
+Ignoring all errors in a playbook hides actual failures, incorrectly mark tasks as failed, and result in unexpected side effects and behavior.
+
+Instead of using the `ignore_errors: true` directive, you should do the following:
+
+- Ignore errors only when using the `{{ ansible_check_mode }}` variable.
+- Use `register` to register errors.
+- Use `failed_when:` and specify acceptable error conditions.
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Run apt-get update
+      ansible.builtin.command: apt-get update
+      ignore_errors: true # <- Ignores all errors, including important failures.
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: all
+  tasks:
+    - name: Run apt-get update
+      ansible.builtin.command: apt-get update
+      ignore_errors: "{{ ansible_check_mode }}" # <- Ignores errors in check mode.
+```

+      register: ignore_errors_register # <- Stores errors and failures for evaluation.

+# jinja
+
+This rule can report problems related to jinja2 string templates. The current
+version can report:
+
+- `jinja[spacing]` when there are no spaces between variables
+  and operators, including filters, like `{{ var_name | filter }}`. This
+  improves readability and makes it less likely to introduce typos.
+- `jinja[invalid]` when the jinja2 template is invalid, like `{{ {{ '1' }} }}`,
+  which would result in a runtime error if you try to use it with Ansible, even
+  if it does pass the Ansible syntax check.
+
+As jinja2 syntax is closely following Python one we aim to follow
+[black](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) formatting rules. If you are
+curious how black would reformat a small sniped feel free to visit
+[online black formatter](https://black.vercel.app/) site. Keep in mind to not
+include the entire jinja2 template, so instead of `{{ 1+2==3 }}`, do paste
+only `1+2==3`.
+
+In ansible, `changed_when`, `failed_when`, `until`, `when` are considered to
+use implicit jinja2 templating, meaning that they do not require `{{ }}`. Our
+rule will suggest the removal of the braces for these fields.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Some task
+  vars:
+    foo: "{{some|dict2items}}" # <-- jinja[spacing]
+    bar: "{{ & }}" # <-- jinja[invalid]
+  when: "{{ foo | bool }}" # <-- jinja[spacing] - 'when' has implicit templating
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Some task
+  vars:
+    foo: "{{ some | dict2items }}"
+    bar: "{{ '&' }}"
+  when: foo | bool
+```
+
+## Current limitations
+
+In its current form, this rule presents the following limitations:
+
+- Jinja2 blocks that have newlines in them will not be reformatted because we
+  consider that the user deliberately wanted to format them in a particular way.
+- Jinja2 blocks that use tilde as a binary operation are ignored because black
+  does not support tilde as a binary operator. Example: `{{ a ~ b }}`.
+- Jinja2 blocks that use dot notation with numbers are ignored because python
+  and black do not allow it. Example: `{{ foo.0.bar }}`

+# key-order
+
+This rule recommends reordering key names in ansible content to make
+code easier to maintain and less prone to errors.
+
+Here are some examples of common ordering checks done for tasks and handlers:
+
+- `name` must always be the first key for plays, tasks and handlers
+- on tasks, the `block`, `rescue` and `always` keys must be the last keys,
+  as this would avoid accidental miss-indentation errors between the last task
+  and the parent level.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: localhost
+  name: This is a playbook # <-- name key should be the first one
+  tasks:
+    - name: A block
+      block:
+        - name: Display a message
+          debug:
+            msg: "Hello world!"
+      when: true # <-- when key should be before block
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: This is a playbook
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: A block
+      when: true
+      block:
+        - name: Display a message
+          debug:
+            msg: "Hello world!"
+```
+
+## Reasoning
+
+Making decisions about the optimal order of keys for ansible tasks or plays is
+no easy task, as we had a huge number of combinations to consider. This is also
+the reason why we started with a minimal sorting rule (name to be the first),
+and aimed to gradually add more fields later, and only when we find the proofs
+that one approach is likely better than the other.
+
+### Why I no longer can put `when` after a `block`?
+
+Try to remember that in real life, `block/rescue/always` have the habit to
+grow due to the number of tasks they host inside, making them exceed what a single screen. This would move the `when` task further away from the rest of the task properties. A `when` from the last task inside the block can
+easily be confused as being at the block level, or the reverse. When tasks are
+moved from one location to another, there is a real risk of moving the block
+level when with it.
+
+By putting the `when` before the `block`, we avoid that kind of risk. The same risk applies to any simple property at the task level, so that is why
+we concluded that the block keys must be the last ones.
+
+Another common practice was to put `tags` as the last property. Still, for the
+same reasons, we decided that they should not be put after block keys either.

+# loop-var-prefix
+
+This rule avoids conflicts with nested looping tasks by configuring a variable
+prefix with `loop_var`. Ansible sets `item` as the loop variable. You can use
+`loop_var` to specify a prefix for loop variables and ensure they are unique to
+each task.
+
+This rule can produce the following messages:
+
+- `loop-var-prefix[missing]` - Replace any unsafe implicit `item` loop variable
+  by adding `loop_var: <loop_var_prefix>...`.
+- `loop-var-prefix[wrong]` - Ensure loop variables start with
+  `<loop_var_prefix>`.
+
+This rule originates from the [Naming parameters section of Ansible Best
+Practices guide][cop314].
+
+## Settings
+
+You can change the behavior of this rule by overriding its default regular
+expression used to check loop variable naming. Keep in mind that the `{role}`
+part is replaced with the inferred role name when applicable.
+
+```yaml
+# .ansible-lint
+loop_var_prefix: "^(__|{role}_)"
+```
+
+This is an opt-in rule. You must enable it in your Ansible-lint configuration as
+follows:
+
+```yaml
+enable_list:
+  - loop-var-prefix
+```
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---

+This rule checks formatting for video links in metadata. Always use dictionaries
+for items in the `meta/main.yml` file.
+
+Items in the `video_links` section must be in a dictionary and use the following
+keys:
+
+- `url`
+- `title`
+
+The value of the `url` key must be a shared link from YouTube, Vimeo, or Google
+Drive.

+# name
+
+This rule identifies several problems related to the naming of tasks and plays.
+This is important because these names are the primary way to **identify** and
+**document** executed operations on the console, logs or web interface.
+
+This rule can produce messages as:
+
+- `name[casing]` - All names should start with an uppercase letter for languages
+  that support it.
+- `name[missing]` - All tasks should be named.
+- `name[play]` - All plays should be named.
+- `name[prefix]` - Prefix task names in sub-tasks files. (opt-in)
+- `name[template]` - Jinja templates should only be at the end of 'name'. This
+  helps with the identification of tasks inside the source code when they fail.
+  The use of templating inside `name` keys is discouraged as there are multiple
+  cases where the rendering of the name template is not possible.
+
+If you want to ignore some of the messages above, you can add any of them to the
+`skip_list`.
+
+## name[prefix]
+
+This rule applies only to included task files that are not named `main.yml`. It
+suggests adding the stem of the file as a prefix to the task name.
+
+For example, if you have a task named `Restart server` inside a file named
+`tasks/deploy.yml`, this rule suggests renaming it to `deploy | Restart server`,
+so it would be easier to identify where it comes from.
+
+For the moment, this sub-rule is just an **opt-in**, so you need to add it to
+your `enable_list` to activate it.
+
+!!! note
+
+    This rule was designed by [Red Hat Community of Practice](https://redhat-cop.github.io/automation-good-practices/#_prefix_task_names_in_sub_tasks_files_of_roles). The reasoning behind it being
+    that in a complex roles or playbooks with multiple (sub-)tasks file, it becomes
+    difficult to understand which task belongs to which file. Adding a prefix, in
+    combination with the role’s name automatically added by Ansible, makes it a
+    lot easier to follow and troubleshoot a role play.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- hosts: localhost # <-- playbook name[play]
+  tasks:
+    - name: create placefolder file # <-- name[casing] due lack of capital letter
+      ansible.builtin.command: touch /tmp/.placeholder
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Play for creating placeholder
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Create placeholder file
+      ansible.builtin.command: touch /tmp/.placeholder
+```

+# no-changed-when
+
+This rule checks that tasks return changes to results or conditions. Unless
+tasks only read information, you should ensure that they return changes in the
+following ways:
+
+- Register results or conditions and use the `changed_when` clause.
+- Use the `creates` or `removes` argument.
+
+You should always use the `changed_when` clause on tasks that do not naturally
+detect if a change has occurred or not. Some of the most common examples are
+[shell] and [command] modules, which run arbitrary commands.
+
+One very common workaround is to use a boolean value like `changed_when: false`
+if the task never changes anything or `changed_when: true` if it always
+changes something, but you can also use any expressions, including ones that
+use the registered result of a task, like in our example below.
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Does not handle any output or return codes
+      ansible.builtin.command: cat {{ my_file | quote }} # <- Does not handle the command output.
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example playbook
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Handle shell output with return code
+      ansible.builtin.command: cat {{ my_file | quote }}
+      register: my_output # <- Registers the command output.
+      changed_when: my_output.rc != 0 # <- Uses the return code to define when the task has changed.

+# no-free-form
+
+This rule identifies any use of
+[free-form](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.7/user_guide/playbooks_intro.html#action-shorthand)
+module calling syntax and asks for switching to the full syntax.
+
+**Free-form** syntax, also known as **inline** or **shorthand**, can produce
+subtle bugs. It can also prevent editors and IDEs from providing feedback,
+autocomplete and validation for the edited line.
+
+!!! note
+
+    As long you just pass a YAML string that contains a `=` character inside as the
+    parameter to the action module name, we consider this as using free-formsyntax.
+    Be sure you pass a dictionary to the module, so the free-form parsing is never
+    triggered.
+
+As `raw` module only accepts free-form, we trigger `no-free-form[raw]` only if
+we detect the presence of `executable=` inside raw calls. We advice the explicit
+use of `args:` dictionary for configuring the executable to be run.
+
+This rule can produce messages such:
+
+- `no-free-form` - Free-form syntax is discouraged.
+- `no-free-form[raw-non-string]` - Passing a non string value to `raw` module is
+  neither documented or supported.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example with discouraged free-form syntax
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Create a placefolder file
+      ansible.builtin.command: chdir=/tmp touch foo # <-- don't use free-form
+    - name: Use raw to echo
+      ansible.builtin.raw: executable=/bin/bash echo foo # <-- don't use executable=
+      changed_when: false
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example that avoids free-form syntax
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Create a placefolder file
+      ansible.builtin.command:
+        cmd: touch foo # <-- ansible will not touch it

+# no-handler
+
+This rule checks for the correct handling of changes to results or conditions.
+
+If a task has a `when: result.changed` condition, it effectively acts as a
+[handler](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_handlers.html#handlers).
+The recommended approach is to use `notify` and move tasks to `handlers`.
+If necessary you can silence the rule by add a `# noqa: no-handler` comment at the end of the line.
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Example of no-handler rule
+  hosts: localhost
+  tasks:
+    - name: Register result of a task
+      ansible.builtin.copy:
+        dest: "/tmp/placeholder"
+        content: "Ansible made this!"
+        mode: 0600
+      register: result # <-- Registers the result of the task.
+    - name: Second command to run
+      ansible.builtin.debug:
+        msg: The placeholder file was modified!
+      when: result.changed # <-- Triggers the no-handler rule.
+```
+
+```yaml
+---
+# Optionally silences the rule.
+when: result.changed # noqa: no-handler
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+The following code includes the same functionality as the problematic code without recording a `result` variable.
+
+```yaml

+# no-jinja-when
+
+This rule checks conditional statements for Jinja expressions in curly brackets `{{ }}`.
+Ansible processes conditionals statements that use the `when`, `failed_when`, and `changed_when` clauses as Jinja expressions.
+
+An Ansible rule is to always use `{{ }}` except with `when` keys.
+Using `{{ }}` in conditionals creates a nested expression, which is an Ansible
+anti-pattern and does not produce expected results.

+# no-log-password
+
+This rule ensures playbooks do not write passwords to logs when using loops.
+Always set the `no_log: true` attribute to protect sensitive data.
+
+While most Ansible modules mask sensitive data, using secrets inside a loop can result in those secrets being logged.
+Explicitly adding `no_log: true` prevents accidentally exposing secrets.

+You should enable this rule to ensure that playbooks can run unattended and in CI/CD pipelines.

+This is an opt-in rule.
+You must enable it in your Ansible-lint configuration as follows:
+
+```yaml
+enable_list:
+  - no-prompting
+```
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---

+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+Correct code for this rule is to omit `vars_prompt` and the `ansible.builtin.pause` module from your playbook.

+# no-relative-paths
+
+This rule checks for relative paths in the `ansible.builtin.copy` and
+`ansible.builtin.template` modules.
+
+Relative paths in a task most often direct Ansible to remote files and
+directories on managed nodes. In the `ansible.builtin.copy` and
+`ansible.builtin.template` modules, the `src` argument refers to local files and
+directories on the control node.
+
+The recommended locations to store files are as follows:
+
+- Use the `files/` folder in the playbook or role directory for the `copy`
+  module.
+- Use the `templates/` folder in the playbook or role directory for the
+  `template` module.
+
+These folders allow you to omit the path or use a sub-folder when specifying
+files with the `src` argument.
+
+!!! note
+
+    If resources are outside your Ansible playbook or role directory you should use an absolute path with the `src` argument.
+
+!!! warning
+
+    Do not store resources at the same directory level as your Ansible playbook or tasks files.
+    Doing this can result in disorganized projects and cause user confusion when distinguishing between resources of the same type, such as YAML.
+
+See
+[task paths](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbook_pathing.html#task-paths)
+in the Ansible documentation for more information.

+# no-same-owner
+
+This rule checks that the owner and group do not transfer across hosts.
+
+In many cases the owner and group on remote hosts do not match the owner and group assigned to source files.
+Preserving the owner and group during transfer can result in errors with permissions or leaking sensitive information.
+
+When you synchronize files, you should avoid transferring the owner and group by setting `owner: false` and `group: false` arguments.
+When you unpack archives with the `ansible.builtin.unarchive` module you should set the `--no-same-owner` option.
+
+This is an opt-in rule.
+You must enable it in your Ansible-lint configuration as follows:
+
+```yaml
+enable_list:
+  - no-same-owner
+```
+
+## Problematic Code

+This rule checks that package managers install software in a controlled, safe manner.
+
+Package manager modules, such as `ansible.builtin.yum`, include a `state` parameter that configures how Ansible installs software.
+In production environments, you should set `state` to `present` and specify a target version to ensure that packages are installed to a planned and tested version.
+
+Setting `state` to `latest` not only installs software, it performs an update and installs additional packages.
+This can result in performance degradation or loss of service.
+If you do want to update packages to the latest version, you should also set the `update_only` parameter to `true` to avoid installing additional packages.

+
+This rule checks that privilege escalation is activated when changing users.
+
+To perform an action as a different user with the `become_user` directive, you
+must set `become: true`.
+
+!!! warning
+
+    While Ansible inherits have of `become` and `become_user` from upper levels,
+    like play level or command line, we do not look at these values. This rule
+    requires you to be explicit and always define both in the same place, mainly

+# risky-file-permissions
+
+This rule is triggered by various modules that could end up creating new files
+on disk with permissions that might be too open, or unpredictable. Please read
+the documentation of each module carefully to understand the implications of
+using different argument values, as these make the difference between using the
+module safely or not. The fix depends on each module and also your particular
+situation.
+
+Some modules have a `create` argument that defaults to `true`. For those you
+either need to set `create: false` or provide some permissions like `mode: 0600`
+to make the behavior predictable and not dependent on the current system
+settings.
+
+Modules that are checked:
+
+- [`ansible.builtin.assemble`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/assemble_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.copy`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/copy_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.file`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/file_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.get_url`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/get_url_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.replace`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/replace_module.html)

+- [`community.general.ini_file`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/general/ini_file_module.html)
+
+!!! warning
+
+    This rule does not take [module_defaults](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_module_defaults.html) configuration into account.
+    There are currently no plans to implement this feature because changing task location can also change task behavior.

+# risky-octal
+
+This rule checks that octal file permissions are strings that contain a leading
+zero or are written in
+[symbolic modes](https://www.gnu.org/software/findutils/manual/html_node/find_html/Symbolic-Modes.html),
+such as `u+rwx` or `u=rw,g=r,o=r`.
+
+Using integers or octal values in YAML can result in unexpected behavior. For
+example, the YAML loader interprets `0644` as the decimal number `420` but
+putting `644` there will produce very different results.
+
+Modules that are checked:
+
+- [`ansible.builtin.assemble`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/assemble_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.copy`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/copy_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.file`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/file_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.replace`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/replace_module.html)
+- [`ansible.builtin.template`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/template_module.html)

+# role-name
+
+This rule checks role names to ensure they conform with requirements.
+
+Role names must contain only lowercase alphanumeric characters and the underscore `_` character.
+Role names must also start with an alphabetic character.
+
+For more information see the [roles directory](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_collections_structure.html#roles-directory) topic in Ansible documentation.
+
+`role-name[path]` message tells you to avoid using paths when importing roles.

+using fully qualified names.

+# run-once
+
+This rule warns against the use of `run_once` when the `strategy` is set to
+`free`.
+
+This rule can produce the following messages:
+
+- `run-once[play]`: Play uses `strategy: free`.
+- `run-once[task]`: Using `run_once` may behave differently if the `strategy` is
+  set to `free`.
+
+For more information see the following topics in Ansible documentation:
+
+- [free strategy](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/free_strategy.html#free-strategy)
+- [selecting a strategy](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_strategies.html#selecting-a-strategy)
+- [run_once(playbook keyword) more info](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/playbooks_keywords.html)
+
+!!! warning
+
+    This rule will always trigger regardless of the value configured inside the 'strategy' field. That is because the effective value used at runtime can be different than the value inside the file. For example, ansible command line arguments can alter it.
+
+It is perfectly fine to add `# noqa: run-once[task]` to mark the warning as
+acknowledged and ignored.
+
+## Problematic Code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: "Example with run_once"
+  hosts: all
+  strategy: free # <-- avoid use of strategy as free
+  gather_facts: false
+  tasks:
+    - name: Task with run_once
+      ansible.builtin.debug:
+        msg: "Test"
+      run_once: true # <-- avoid use of strategy as free at play level when using run_once at task level
+```
+
+## Correct Code
+
+```yaml
+- name: "Example without run_once"
+  hosts: all
+  gather_facts: false
+  tasks:
+    - name: Task without run_once
+      ansible.builtin.debug:

+```
+
+```yaml
+- name: "Example of using run_once with strategy other than free"
+  hosts: all
+  strategy: linear
+  # strategy: free # noqa: run-once[play] (if using strategy: free can skip it this way)
+  gather_facts: false
+  tasks: # <-- use noqa to disable rule violations for specific tasks
+    - name: Task with run_once # noqa: run-once[task]
+      ansible.builtin.debug:
+        msg: "Test"
+      run_once: true

+# schema
+
+The `schema` rule validates Ansible metadata files against JSON schemas. These
+schemas ensure the compatibility of Ansible syntax content across versions.
+
+This `schema` rule is **mandatory**. You cannot use inline `noqa` comments to
+ignore it.
+
+Ansible-lint validates the `schema` rule before processing other rules. This
+prevents unexpected syntax from triggering multiple rule violations.
+
+## Validated schema
+
+Ansible-lint currently validates several schemas that are maintained in separate
+projects and updated independently to ansible-lint.
+
+> Report bugs related to schema in their respective repository and not in the
+> ansible-lint project.
+
+Maintained in the [ansible-lint](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-lint)
+project:
+
+- `schema[ansible-lint-config]` validates
+  [ansible-lint configuration](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-lint/blob/main/src/ansiblelint/schemas/ansible-lint-config.json)
+
+Maintained in the
+[ansible-navigator](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-navigator) project:
+
+- `schema[ansible-navigator]` validates
+  [ansible-navigator configuration](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-navigator/blob/main/src/ansible_navigator/data/ansible-navigator.json)
+
+- `schema[arg_specs]` validates
+  [module argument specs](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_program_flow_modules.html#argument-spec)
+- `schema[execution-environment]` validates
+  [execution environments](https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/execution_environments.html)
+- `schema[galaxy]` validates
+  [collection metadata](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/collections_galaxy_meta.html).
+- `schema[inventory]` validates
+  [inventory files](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/inventory_guide/intro_inventory.html)
+  that match `inventory/*.yml`.
+- `schema[meta-runtime]` validates
+  [runtime information](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_collections_structure.html#meta-directory-and-runtime-yml)
+  that matches `meta/runtime.yml`
+- `schema[meta]` validates metadata for roles that match `meta/main.yml`. See
+  [role-dependencies](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_reuse_roles.html#role-dependencies)
+  or
+  [role/metadata.py](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/playbook/role/metadata.py#L79))
+  for details.
+- `schema[playbook]` validates Ansible playbooks.
+- `schema[requirements]` validates Ansible
+  [requirements](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/galaxy/user_guide.html#install-multiple-collections-with-a-requirements-file)
+  files that match `requirements.yml`.
+- `schema[tasks]` validates Ansible task files that match `tasks/**/*.yml`.
+- `schema[vars]` validates Ansible
+  [variables](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_variables.html)
+  that match `vars/*.yml` and `defaults/*.yml`.
+
+## schema[meta]
+
+For `meta/main.yml` files, Ansible-lint requires a `galaxy_info.standalone`
+property that clarifies if a role is an old standalone one or a new one,
+collection based:
+
+```yaml
+galaxy_info:
+  standalone: true # <-- this is a standalone role (not part of a collection)
+```
+
+Ansible-lint requires the `standalone` key to avoid confusion and provide more
+specific error messages. For example, the `meta` schema will require some
+properties only for standalone roles or prevent the use of some properties that
+are not supported by collections.
+
+You cannot use an empty `meta/main.yml` file or use only comments in the
+`meta/main.yml` file.
+
+## schema[moves]
+
+These errors usually look like "foo was moved to bar in 2.10" and indicate
+module moves between Ansible versions.

+# syntax-check
+
+Our linter runs `ansible-playbook --syntax-check` on all playbooks, and if any
+of these reports a syntax error, this stops any further processing of these
+files.
+
+This error **cannot be disabled** due to being a prerequisite for other steps.
+You can exclude these files from linting, but it is better to make sure they can
+be loaded by Ansible. This is often achieved by editing the inventory file
+and/or `ansible.cfg` so ansible can load required variables.
+
+If undefined variables cause the failure, you can use the jinja `default()`
+filter to provide fallback values, like in the example below.
+
+This rule is among the few `unskippable` rules that cannot be added to
+`skip_list` or `warn_list`. One possible workaround is to add the entire file to
+the `exclude_paths`. This is a valid approach for special cases, like testing
+fixtures that are invalid on purpose.
+
+One of the most common sources of errors is a failure to assert the presence of
+various variables at the beginning of the playbook.
+
+This rule can produce messages like below:
+
+- `syntax-check[empty-playbook]` is raised when a playbook file has no content.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name:
+    Bad use of variable inside hosts block (wrong assumption of it being
+    defined)
+  hosts: "{{ my_hosts }}"
+  tasks: []
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: Good use of variable inside hosts, without assumptions
+  hosts: "{{ my_hosts | default([]) }}"
+  tasks: []
+```

+# yaml
+
+This rule checks YAML syntax and is an implementation of `yamllint`.
+
+You can disable YAML syntax violations by adding `yaml` to the `skip_list` in
+your Ansible-lint configuration as follows:
+
+```yaml
+skip_list:
+  - yaml
+```
+
+For more fine-grained control, disable violations for specific rules using tag
+identifiers in the `yaml[yamllint_rule]` format as follows:
+
+```yaml
+skip_list:
+  - yaml[trailing-spaces]
+  - yaml[indentation]
+```
+
+If you want Ansible-lint to report YAML syntax violations as warnings, and not
+fatal errors, add tag identifiers to the `warn_list` in your configuration, for
+example:
+
+```yaml
+warn_list:
+  - yaml[document-start]
+```
+
+See the
+[list of yamllint rules](https://yamllint.readthedocs.io/en/stable/rules.html)
+for more information.
+
+Some of the detailed error codes that you might see are:
+
+- `yaml[brackets]` - _too few spaces inside empty brackets_, or _too many spaces
+  inside brackets_
+- `yaml[colons]` - _too many spaces before colon_, or _too many spaces after
+  colon_
+- `yaml[commas]` - _too many spaces before comma_, or _too few spaces after
+  comma_
+- `yaml[comments-indentation]` - _Comment not indented like content_
+- `yaml[comments]` - _Too few spaces before comment_, or _Missing starting space
+  in comment_
+- `yaml[document-start]` - _missing document start "---"_ or _found forbidden
+  document start "---"_
+- `yaml[empty-lines]` - _too many blank lines (...> ...)_
+- `yaml[indentation]` - _Wrong indentation: expected ... but found ..._
+- `yaml[key-duplicates]` - _Duplication of key "..." in mapping_
+- `yaml[new-line-at-end-of-file]` - _No new line character at the end of file_
+- `yaml[octal-values]`: forbidden implicit or explicit [octal](#octals) value
+- `yaml[syntax]` - YAML syntax is broken
+- `yaml[trailing-spaces]` - Spaces are found at the end of lines
+- `yaml[truthy]` - _Truthy value should be one of ..._
+
+## Octals
+
+As [YAML specification] regarding octal values changed at least 3 times in
+[1.1], [1.2.0] and [1.2.2] we now require users to always add quotes around
+octal values, so the YAML loaders will all load them as strings, providing a
+consistent behavior. This is also safer as JSON does not support octal values
+either.
+
+By default, yamllint does not check for octals but our custom default ruleset
+for it does check these. If for some reason, you do not want to follow our
+defaults, you can create a `.yamllint` file in your project and this will take
+precedence over our defaults.
+
+## Problematic code
+
+```yaml
+# Missing YAML document start.
+foo: 0777 # <-- yaml[octal-values]
+foo2: 0o777 # <-- yaml[octal-values]
+foo2: ... # <-- yaml[key-duplicates]
+bar: ...       # <-- yaml[comments-indentation]
+```
+
+## Correct code
+
+```yaml
+---
+foo: "0777" # <-- Explicitly quoting octal is less risky.
+foo2: "0o777" # <-- Explicitly quoting octal is less risky.
+bar: ... # Correct comment indentation.
+```
