LocalInspectionTool is not designed for running external executables, like cppcheck. For such task, ExternalAnnotator should be used. The flow is similar: inherit this class, override collectInformation to get all required data (like, virtual files, include dir, etc.), doAnnotate to actually execute cppcheck and finally apply to apply diagnostics to editor.
