# Pyrefly Processor
## Purpose
Type-checks Python source files using [pyrefly](https://pyrefly.org/).
## How It Works
Discovers `.py` files in the project (excluding common non-source directories),
runs `pyrefly check` on each file, and records success in the cache.
A non-zero exit code from pyrefly fails the product.
This processor supports batch mode, allowing multiple files to be checked in a
single pyrefly invocation for better performance.
## Source Files
- Input: `**/*.py`
- Output: none (linter)
## Configuration
```toml
[processor.pyrefly]
command = "pyrefly" # The pyrefly command to run
args = [] # Additional arguments to pass to pyrefly
dep_inputs = [] # Additional files that trigger rebuilds when changed
```
| `command` | string | `"pyrefly"` | The pyrefly executable to run |
| `args` | string[] | `[]` | Extra arguments passed to pyrefly |
| `dep_inputs` | string[] | `[]` | Extra files whose changes trigger rebuilds |
## Batch support
The tool accepts multiple files on the command line. When batching is enabled (default), rsconstruct passes all files in a single invocation for better performance.
## Clean behavior
This processor is a Checker — `rsconstruct clean outputs` is a no-op for it (checkers produce no outputs). See [Clean behavior](../processors.md#clean-behavior) and [`rsconstruct clean`](../commands.md#rsconstruct-clean).
