no-at-sign-internal-import

Disallow internal alias imports under "@/".

Targeted pattern scope​

This rule inspects module source strings in imports/exports and reports values matching the default disallow glob "@/**".

What this rule reports​

This rule reports source strings that match "@/**". It is useful when @ should be reserved for package roots and not direct internal alias paths.

Why this rule exists​

If your architecture reserves @ for package-level entrypoints only, this rule prevents deep internal alias imports.

❌ Incorrect​

import value from "@/feature";

✅ Correct​

import value from "@";

Behavior and migration notes​

This rule reports only and does not provide an autofix.

Typical migration is switching to package exports, public entrypoints, or allowed local relative imports.

Options​

type Options = {
 allow?: string[];
 disallow?: string[];
};

Default:

{
 "disallow": ["@/**"]
}

Additional examples​

// default disallow: ["@/**"]
import { helper } from "@/internal/helper";
// ❌ reported

import { helper } from "@";
// ✅ not matched by default pattern

ESLint flat config example​

import etcMisc from "eslint-plugin-etc-misc";

export default [
 {
  plugins: { "etc-misc": etcMisc },
  rules: {
   "etc-misc/no-at-sign-internal-import": "error",
  },
 },
];

When not to use it​

Disable this rule if @/ internal alias imports are part of your standard architecture.
