🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add the required byte-wise leading-BOM check.

PATTERNS includes U+FEFF, but this grep -P scan does not cover a UTF-8 BOM at byte offset 0. Issue #70 requires a separate byte-wise check because grep strips a leading BOM. Add that result to /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt.

Suggested check 
-            -exec grep -aPrl "$PATTERNS" {} \; > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt 2>/dev/null
+            -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' filepath; do
+              if head -c 3 "$filepath" | cmp -s - <(printf '\357\273\277') ||
+                 grep -aPq "$PATTERNS" "$filepath"; then
+                printf '%s\n' "$filepath"
+              fi
+            done > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt 2>/dev/null

In @.github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml at line 129, Update the workflow’s lint
scan near the PATTERNS definition to add a separate byte-wise check for a UTF-8
BOM at byte offset 0, since the existing grep-based scan can strip it. Append
that check’s result to /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt while preserving the current
PATTERNS scan.

⚪ LOW RISK

Suggestion: Optimization of the scanning process and improvement of error visibility: using + instead of \; allows find to batch multiple files into fewer grep calls, which is significantly more efficient. The -r flag is redundant as find provides the exact file paths. Additionally, removing the 2>/dev/null redirection ensures that any regex or locale-related errors are visible for debugging. The inclusion of the -a flag is correct as it forces grep to treat all files as text, preventing files with NUL bytes from being skipped.

Suggested change
-exec grep -aPrl "$PATTERNS" {} \; > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt 2>/dev/null
-exec grep -aPl "$PATTERNS" {} + > /tmp/empty-lint-results.txt
