Research direction

Start with the linked discussion in nf-core/sarek pull request 1304, especially the referenced comment, to understand what “sorted channels” and linting should cover. Then inspect the relevant linting entry points in nf-core/tools. Done means the expected sorting behavior is agreed and implemented with validation for the affected cases.
