LanguageTool's style and grammar check depends on the language selected in CodeRabbit's configuration. You can set the language by setting the language field in your project's .coderabbit.yaml file or setting the "Review Language" field in CodeRabbit's settings page.

CodeRabbit allows further configuring LanguageTool by setting specific rules and categories to be enabled/disabled. This can be done under the reviews.tools.languagetool field in your project's .coderabbit.yaml file or setting the various options under "Review → Tools → LanguageTool" in CodeRabbit's settings page. The following options are available:

  • enabled - Enable or disable LanguageTool.
  • enabled_rules - Enable specific rules.
  • disabled_rules - Disable specific rules.
  • enabled_categories - Enable specific categories.
  • disabled_categories - Disable specific categories.
  • enabled_only- Enable only the rules and categories of IDs are specified with 'enabledRules' or 'enabledCategories'.
  • level - Set the level of feedback to be provided by LanguageTool. The following levels are available:
    • default - Provides feedback on common issues.
    • picky - Provides feedback on more issues, rules that you might only find useful when checking formal text.
