chant dev check-lexicon <dir> [--format json]

Description

Section titled “Description”

chant dev check-lexicon evaluates a lexicon directory against three tiers of completeness checks:

  • Tier 1 (Required) — Must all pass. Exit code 1 on failure.
  • Tier 2 (Recommended) — Warnings for missing features.
  • Tier 3 (Thoroughness) — Informational, tracks depth of coverage.

The checks are pure filesystem checks — file presence, directory contents, and simple content inspection. No lexicon code is executed.
