📖 Rule Details

This rule aims to enforce the use of Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER instead of other ways to represent the maximum safe integer value.

Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER provides several advantages over hardcoded values:

• Clarity of intent: Immediately obvious that you're using the maximum safe integer
• Precision: Guaranteed to be the exact maximum safe integer value (2⁵³ - 1)
• Maintainability: Avoids potential typos in hexadecimal or decimal literals
• Self-documenting: Makes the code intention clear without comments
