+    This function parses command-line arguments to determine which linters to run

+    and Python files. If no specific linter is specified, all linters are executed.
+
+    Command-line arguments:
+        --ansible: Run only ansible-lint.
+        --nix: Run only nixfmt.
+        --python: Run only Python linters (pylint, black).
+        --fix: Auto-fix issues where possible.
