is there a way to let tools.deps print only the paths that you specified in your deps.edn file and not the entire classpath?

No - why would that be useful?

linting 🙂

Why?

why linting you mean?

one use case: I want to lint the entire classpath, but only report errors from my own code. but it’s not too hard to do some manipulation on the output of -Spath or hard-code it. the amount of paths if fairly limited.

to answer your question more generally: it could in theory be useful to list all the files from your own paths for whatever reason

but I guess not high priority for now
