Spell Checking with cspell

Commands

# Check spelling
npm run spell-check

# Auto-fix spelling issues
npm run spell-check:fix

Configuration

Configuration is in .cspell.json. See that file for custom dictionaries, ignored paths, and file-specific overrides.

Adding New Words

When cspell flags a legitimate word:

1. For general technical terms → Add to root-level words array in .cspell.json
2. For Rust crate names → Add to dictionaryDefinitions[name="crates"].words array in .cspell.json
3. Run npm run spell-check to verify

Workflow

1. Run npm run spell-check to identify issues
2. For legitimate terms, add them to .cspell.json
3. For real errors, run npm run spell-check:fix or fix manually
4. Verify with npm run spell-check
