What problem does it solve?
British spellings slow readers, reduce consistency, and complicate editorial workflows. This skill scans text files and rewrites common British variants with American equivalents in-place, ensuring uniform spelling across a project.
Core Features & Use Cases
- In-place British-to-American spelling normalization across files or directories.
- Case-preserving substitutions with a seed table to avoid breaking identifiers or URLs.
- Configurable and safe: skips binary files and sensitive paths, with a focus on text content.
Quick Start
Provide a path to a file or directory and let the tool replace British spellings with American equivalents in-place.
