Description

Description of feature

Hi,
I ran into unused modules import in our phaseimpute pipeline.
It's not really a big problem but it would be nice if nf-core lint command could find them.
Would it be possible ?
If it could also check the config file name, it would be nice too 😉

Research direction

Start with the existing nf-core lint command and reproduce the report against the phaseimpute pipeline. Trace how current lint checks inspect pipeline modules and configuration, then identify the relevant tests before defining completion as detecting unused module imports and invalid config file names.】【。
