Can someone spot why lining fails here? https://github.com/nf-core/modules/actions/runs/21165056512/job/60867699106?pr=9678

you need to specify some output. it shouldn't fail that uggly, but if I print the linting failures before the crash, it reads :

[('missing_emit', 'Missing emit statement: /*  There is not generated output  __init__.py:292
         files.', PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf')), ('missing_emit', "Missing
         emit statement: The sole purpose of 'samtools quickcheck' is to return an error if the mapping
         file is malformatted.", PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf')),
         ('missing_emit', 'Missing emit statement: The purpose in of the Nextflow process is to break the
         main workflow (by default) if the script returns a non-zero exit code.',
         PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf')), ('missing_emit', 'Missing emit
         statement: The nf-core components guidelines
         (<https://nf-co.re/docs/guidelines/components/modules>) do not specify that there must be output
         files.', PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf')), ('missing_emit', 'Missing
         emit statement: */', PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf')), ('main_nf',
         'main_nf_meta_output', "'meta' map not emitted in output channel(s)",
         PosixPath('modules/nf-core/samtools/quickcheck/main.nf'))]

failure is due to multiline comment

ah, this is a bug in linting, where we parse the comment incorreclty

I would put the comments only in meta

Removing the multi-line comment actually fixed it. Thank you both so much

I added some debugging code inside nf-core tools 😬

That's another level of nf-core Kung-Fu. I'll just wait for the next release then 😉
