# cspell

> CSpell is a linter for identifying and fixing spelling errors in source code, documentation, and configuration files, enhancing overall project quality.

[**cspell**](https://github.com/streetsidesoftware/cspell#readme) is a linter for All.

You can enable the cspell linter with:

```shell theme={null}
trunk check enable cspell
```

## Auto Enabling

cspell will never be auto-enabled. It must be enabled manually.

## Settings

cspell supports the following config files:

* `.cspell.json`
* `cspell.json`
* `.cSpell.json`
* `cSpell.json`
* `cspell.config.js`
* `cspell.config.cjs`
* `cspell.config.json`
* `cspell.config.yaml`
* `cspell.config.yml`
* `cspell.yaml`
* `cspell.yml`

You can move these files to `.trunk/configs` and `trunk check` will still find them. See [Moving Linters](../configure-linters#moving-linters) for more info. Trunk Code Quality provides a default `cspell.yaml` if your project does not already have one.
