It scans files for spelling mistakes and can automatically correct them, with built-in support for ignoring false positives through configuration files. Unlike traditional spell checkers that validate against a dictionary of correct words, typos maintains a curated list of known typo corrections to keep false positives low enough to run safely in CI/CD pipelines and pull requests without manual review.\n\nThe tool integrates with GitHub Actions, pre-commit hooks, and other CI systems, and provides multiple output formats (diff, JSON, plain text) for custom integrations. It handles common development scenarios like ignoring people's names, acronyms, and localized content through a `_typos.toml` configuration file. The package has no runtime dependencies and is distributed as pre-built binaries for multiple platforms and architectures.","worth_installing":"Yes. Typos is actively maintained, has no runtime dependencies, runs on all major platforms, and is specifically designed for source code with low false positives\u2014making it safe to run unattended in CI. The permissive dual license and integration with standard tools (GitHub Actions, pre-commit) make it a straightforward addition to most development workflows."},"id":"typos","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/typos","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/typos.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/typos/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"typos","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Source Code Spelling Correction"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1209617,"position":4217,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.49.0"}
