We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

}Use Cases
- Pre-search query cleanup: Check spelling before deciding which search endpoint to call
- "Did you mean?" UI: Show users a corrected suggestion before running the search
- Batch query normalization: Clean up user inputs in bulk
Notes
- Built-in alternative: Web Search and LLM Context have
spellcheck=trueby default — use this standalone endpoint only when you need the correction before searching - Context-aware: Corrections consider the full query context, not just individual words
