Perplexity

Terminal-based glob validation

Run `test_glob` from your terminal to verify CI pipeline rules. It returns a boolean match result so you can script your build checks. It's built for automation. Use it in shell scripts to confirm ignore patterns before you push code.

Verify deployment filters

Before you deploy, check your include/exclude patterns against target file paths. This server confirms if your glob logic is correct. You avoid broken deployments caused by incorrect path matching. The output is clean and ready for pipe operations.

Consistent pattern checking

Because it uses the same engine as your git config, the results are always predictable. You don't have to worry about different matching behaviors. It handles complex patterns like brace expansion and negations. You get the same logic locally as you do in your production pipeline.
