Interesting. I've been working on a pre-commit replacement too, written in Rust but using WASI for all plugins (no exceptions!). I haven't got very far but I think this will have huge advantages over pre-commit, mostly in reliability.

Me and my colleagues have had numerous issues setting up pre-commit because it inherits Python's atrocious infrastructure.

I'm curious how this is going to deal with actually running plugins? Will it take the same approach as pre-commit and add dedicated not-very-good support for a load of different languages?

Not gonna say Python isn't a mess but I'm surprised a self-contained application is so bad. All the pieces are there to have it work— give it its own venv, use wrappers or the shebang so transparently uses it, and plug-ins get installed into that venv. All should be happy.
