+Codespell
+=========
+
+`codespell <https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell/>`__ is a popular tool to look for typical typos in the source code.
+
+It is enabled mostly for the documentation and English locale files.
+
+Run Locally
+-----------
+
+The mozlint integration of codespell can be run using mach:
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+ $ mach lint --linter codespell <file paths>
+
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+To enable codespell on new directory, add the path to the include
+section in the `codespell.yml <https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/tools/lint/codespell.yml>`_ file.
+
+This job is configured as `tier 2 <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Sheriffing/Job_Visibility_Policy#Overview_of_the_Job_Visibility_Tiers>`_.
+
+Autofix
+-------
+
+Codespell provides a ``--fix`` option. It is based on the ``-w`` option provided by upstream.
