Check for drift

Version 0.1.3 Updated Sep 27, 2026

--check refreshes the cache, merges the local overlay, and compares the deterministic rendering with tracked typos.toml, exiting non-zero on drift without rewriting the tracked file. It is a local inspection tool, useful when reviewing whether an overlay change alters the rendered output.

Because the authority is live, a tracked typos.toml drifts whenever the shared dictionary changes, so continuous integration (CI) must not run --check against a tracked typos.toml: that would fail every consumer's build on every shared dictionary edit. Use gate, which always writes the current rendering before checking it with Typos and the phrase check, for the CI-facing spelling gate.
