Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a new spelling extension that provides spell-checking functionality using macOS's native NSSpellChecker API via AppleScript. The extension allows users to check spelling, get suggestions, and quickly paste or copy corrected words.

Key changes:

• Added spell-checking command with view mode that displays suggestions in real-time
• Implemented configurable preferences for primary action (paste vs copy), confirmation HUD, and multi-language support (13 languages)
• Uses useExec hook with AppleScript to interface with macOS's native spell checker
• Includes metadata screenshots and comprehensive documentation

Minor issues:

• Missing title on one preference in package.json (line 41)
• Uses older .eslintrc.json format instead of recommended eslint.config.js
• CHANGELOG properly uses {PR_MERGE_DATE} template string

Confidence Score: 4/5

• This PR is safe to merge with only minor style improvements needed
• The implementation is clean and follows Raycast extension patterns well. The core logic properly uses useExec with isLoading state, handles empty states correctly, and implements configurable preferences. The only issues are minor style concerns: a missing preference title and using the older eslint config format.
• Pay attention to package.json (missing preference title) and .eslintrc.json (outdated config format)

Hi 👋

How is this compared with the built-in Define command?

We do have a lot of spelling extensions in the store already, did you check them out?
