Linter: `--disable-js-plugins` CLI flag

[nihalgonsalves]

When there are a lot of jsPlugins, oxlint slows down considerably, as expected.

There are scenarios where a complete lint run is not necessary, for example a quick pre-commit check (with the full run on CI), or for testing the enforcement of a new (native oxlint) rule to a codebase and iterating quickly.

It would be nice to have a simple --disable-js-plugins flag for these use cases.

Another potential use case could be large monorepos where many jsPlugins are enabled and lint runs happen very frequently during development.

In those cases, a flag like:

oxlint --disable-js-plugins

could significantly reduce local lint times, while CI still runs the full configuration.

Implementation-wise, it might also be beneficial if this flag skipped loading the JS plugin runtime entirely, rather than disabling them after initialization, to maximize the performance improvement.

in the mean time, you can do something like

// oxlint.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'oxlint';

export default defineConfig({
   jsPlugins: process.env.DISABLE_JS_PLUGINS ? [] : yourPluginsArray
});
