If you can run your lints from a command line, you can configure pre-commit to run them.

Yes but the whole point of pre-commit is it takes care of installing the lints. For most supported languages this requires the lint to be in its own repo. That is very annoying for project-specific lints that you would ideally want to just put in a subdirectory. Does that make sense?

can write a local pre-commit hook that runs a bash command or script that 1.) activates the necessary venv and 2.) runs the lint command. I know this because I’ve done it, multiple times.

Yeah there's not really any point using pre-commit at that point.
