your dotfiles repo: helix needs its language servers, so it declares dep("lsp") — but you renamed that module pyright last week.

import { dep, githubRelease, module, symlink } from "@gripsack/core";

export default module("helix", {
  fetch: githubRelease({ repo: "helix-editor/helix",
    asset: "helix-{version}-{system}.tar.xz" }),
  install: { "bin/hx": symlink("~/.local/bin/hx") },
  depends: [dep("lsp")],
});

$ grip plan
error[E101]: module "helix" depends on unknown module "lsp"

you copy ripgrep's asset naming from its GitHub releases page and typo the platform placeholder.

export default module("ripgrep", {
  fetch: githubRelease({ repo: "BurntSushi/ripgrep",
    asset: "ripgrep-{version}-{sytem}.tar.gz" }),
  install: { "ripgrep-{version}-{target}/rg": symlink("~/.local/bin/rg") },
});

$ grip check
error[E114]: unknown placeholder '{sytem}' in "ripgrep-{version}-{sytem}.tar.gz"
  --> modules/ripgrep.ts:3:14
   |
 3 |     asset: "ripgrep-{version}-{sytem}.tar.gz" }),
   |              ^
  help: did you mean '{system}'?

the config lives one directory up from the repo — tempting to point at. payloads must live inside the repo, so a deploy can never read (or write) outside it.

export default module("git", {
  config: {
    "../shared/gitconfig": trackedCopy("~/.gitconfig"),
  },
});

$ grip check
error[E115]: module "git": source "../shared/gitconfig" — `..` escapes are never allowed

a stray key that's been sitting in your helix config doing nothing — it deploys fine and fails in the editor, an hour later, in a different terminal. the linter closes that gap at check time.

theme = "catppuccin_mocha"
themez = "nord"

$ grip check
error[griplint-helix/A01]: unknown key 'themez'
  --> configs/helix/config.toml:2:1
   |

   | ^

upstream renamed the asset in the latest release — the error tells you what is there, not just what you asked for.

export default module("fd", {
  fetch: githubRelease({ repo: "sharkdp/fd",
    asset: "fd-{version}-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.gz" }),
  install: { "fd-{version}-{target}/fd": symlink("~/.local/bin/fd") },
});

$ grip apply
error[E301]: step resolve failed in fd: no release asset matching
  "fd-{version}-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.gz" in sharkdp/fd
