| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team tracing a bug, adding a test, or implementing a bounded change with a reviewable plan and diff. Avoid broad production access or unscoped Auto-approve, and do not treat it as a replacement for tests, Git, or human review. | Best for an individual developer or small team that wants consistent product names, terminology, and documentation style before merge. It applies the same rules to human- or AI-written prose locally and in CI. It is not a translator, semantic fact checker, or Arabic grammar checker through English packages. | Best for a solo developer or small team that works from the terminal and wants focused, reviewable commits. It helps select changes and open another branch in a separate working folder. It does not replace tests or Git knowledge; your editor interface may already be enough. |
