 Rules may export a `schema` property, which is a [JSON Schema](https://json-schema.org/) format description of a rule's options which will be used by ESLint to validate configuration options and prevent invalid or unexpected inputs before they are passed to the rule in `context.options`.
 
-There are two formats for a rule's exported `schema`. The first is a full JSON Schema object describing all possible options the rule accepts, including the rule's error level as the first argument and any optional arguments thereafter.

-However, to simplify schema creation, rules may also export an array of schemas for each optional positional argument. ESLint automatically validates the required error level first. For example, the `yoda` rule accepts a primary mode argument, as well as an extra options object with named properties.

-In the preceding example, the error level is assumed to be the first argument. It is followed by the first optional argument, a string that may be either `"always"` or `"never"`. The final optional argument is an object, which may have a boolean property named `exceptRange`.

 **Note:** If your rule schema uses JSON schema [`$ref`](https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema/structuring.html#ref) properties, you must use the full JSON Schema object rather than the array of positional property schemas. This is because ESLint transforms the array shorthand into a single schema without updating references that makes them incorrect (they are ignored).

 ### Accessing Shebangs
 
 [Shebangs (#!)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)) are represented by the unique tokens of type `"Shebang"`. They are treated as comments and can be accessed by the methods outlined in the [Accessing Comments](#accessing-comments) section, such as `sourceCode.getAllComments()`.
