🏹 Typo Hunter
Catch typos, homophones, and near-miss misspellings across code, docs, and markdown, in a commit, your staged changes, a file, or a whole directory. Layers dictionary, phonetic (Soundex), and edit-distance checks with context-aware homonym rules to flag the their/there and its/it's a basic spellcheck sails right past.

About this skill
Advanced Typo Detection for Developers
Typo Hunter is a professional-grade spelling and linguistic analysis tool designed for integration into CI/CD pipelines and local development environments. It goes beyond simple regex-based spellcheckers by utilizing system-level dictionaries and phonetic algorithms to provide high-accuracy corrections for codebases and documentation.
What it does
The skill scans your repository at multiple levels—whether it's the last commit, staged changes, or specific directories. It extracts user-facing text while intelligently ignoring minified files, lockfiles, and code identifiers to reduce noise.
- Multi-layered Detection: Combines Aspell/Enchant dictionaries with Levenshtein edit distance (limit 2) and Soundex phonetic matching.
- Context-Aware Homonyms: Uses linguistic rules to catch "their/there/they're" and "its/it's" errors that standard spellcheckers miss.
- Smart Filtering: Automatically excludes URLs, hashes, and binary data to ensure reports remain actionable.
- Confidence Scoring: Each finding is ranked (High/Medium/Low) based on phonetic similarity and dictionary coverage.
Why use this skill
Automating typo detection prevents embarrassing mistakes in user-facing UI, documentation, and commit messages. Unlike manual prompting, this skill uses deterministic Python scripts and system-level tools to ensure 100% coverage of your diffs with zero hallucinations.

Permissions
File Scopes
Typo Hunter needs terminal access to run Aspell (system dictionary) and git commands (diff, log) for scanning commits. File read access reads the files being checked for typos. The skill never modifies files — it only reports findings. If Aspell is not installed, the skill falls back to Levenshtein distance + phonetic matching algorithms. No write, browser, network, or environment variable access required. **First-time setup:** User may need to install Aspell: `brew install aspell` (macOS) or `apt-get install aspell` (Linux). Windows users can use WSL or skip dictionary mode (fallback still works).
