What happens if the operator is overloaded outside a class? Is that allowed/disallowed and could you please mention the guideline on that in the docs + tests.

I think isOverloadedOperator is a better name.

I think this comment could be rephrased to a better sentence. Maybe Overloading operators is disallowed by the fuchsia coding standard.?

Could you make the link clickable?

I think isFuchsiaOverloadedOperator() is even better because of the extra work done by the checker (otherwise, it might be tempting to put this into ASTMatchers.h).

I think this could be better stated as "cannot overload %0" and pass in D (which should expand to something reasonable).

While this is an overloaded assignment operator, it's grating for it not to accept a const B&.

Doesn't rST parse standalone links this into hyperlinks without additional markup?

Updating matcher to include overloaded operators outside classes.

I am not sure but probably. It's ok then.

Are the Fuchsia library headers intended to also comply with this rule? I notice there's mention of a unique_ptr class, and I can't imagine that working without overloading more operators than just assignment. Perhaps this check should not be triggered for system headers?

& should bind to other here.

The & should bind to other. Same below. Also, the param identifier should start with a capital letter (also same below).

It would make sense for it to be run on the system headers when clang-tidy's -system-headers flag is included, otherwise not -- does that logic need to go into the checker though?

Ah, I forgot about that detail, so no, I don't think you need to make modifications here for that.

One more tiny nit with the test case, otherwise LGTM.
