You can run locally defined hooks with pre-commit, just define them in the repo: local section of the .pre-commit-config.yaml
Sounds like you’re just googling it rather than actually speaking from experience. Suppose I have written a Python lint and it’s in my ci/lints/foo folder. How do I tell pre-commit that? (Hint: you can’t)
Which isn’t really that big a deal imo
For small Python projects, maybe not. The project I’m working on has multiple sub-projects and those each have their own venvs, pyproject.tomls, etc.

Like I said, I’ve used pre-commit for multiple years now. If you can run your lints from a command line, you can configure pre-commit to run them.

Monorepos definitely make things a bit trickier, but again, you absolutely 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.

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?

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