5. Consumer lint

dasImguiNodeEditor ships a default-on lint rule that keeps consumer code on the boost wrappers instead of the raw C++ binding.

NODEEDITOR001 — raw imgui_node_editor::* call not on the allow-list (macro_error severity, error code 50503). The rule is bundled into imgui/imgui_node_editor_boost_v2, so it runs on anything that transitively requires the boost layer — and it walks the consumer file only, skipping the wrapper modules (which legitimately call the raw bindings).

The point: the create / delete wrappers carry the live-command queue-injection logic (enqueue_new_link / enqueue_delete_* replayed through the same begin_create / begin_delete the mouse drives). Reaching past them into native BeginCreate / BeginDelete silently breaks drivability; node / pin / link, the selection helpers, and the editor lifecycle are wrapped for the same registry / SetCurrentEditor reasons.

Allow-list. A curated set the v2 surface deliberately does not wrap is permitted: host-agnostic geometry / topology / selection reads (GetNodePosition, GetNodeSize, GetLinkPins, IsNodeSelected, HasAnyLinks, GetNodeCount, …), per-frame interaction queries (GetHoveredNode / Pin / Link, GetDoubleClicked*, IsBackgroundClicked, …), editor / node state reads (IsActive, IsSuspended, HasSelectionChanged, GetNodeZPosition, GetGroupMin / Max), canvas ↔ screen transforms (CanvasToScreen, ScreenToCanvas, GetScreenSize, GetCurrentZoom), the one-time SetNodePosition seed, and NavigateToContent. If a genuinely host-agnostic read is missing, extend ALLOWED_NE in imgui_node_editor_lint.das.

Opt out per file with:

options _allow_node_editor_native = true
