Validate the diagnostic
Confirm the reported code matches this rule before you edit it.
Confirm the reported code matches react-doctor/no-auto-scrolling-content. Compare it with the Before example and verify the same API, framework, and execution context. Treat it as a false positive only when one of those conditions differs.

The corrected pattern shows a focused way to address the diagnostic.
Reported pattern
