Research direction

This is design work with no files named in the issue. Start by reading the project's README and any existing correction or configuration code to see what the lexicon has to support. Done means a written format decision covering storage location, file format, canonical word entries, variant lists, and case-sensitivity rules, agreed with the maintainer before any correction logic is built.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement lexicon

Define the first HermesKey lexicon format.

Scope:

  • storage location
  • JSON vs YAML vs env-like format
  • canonical word entries
  • variant / misrecognition lists
  • case-sensitive handling rules

Goal:
Settle the format before implementing correction logic.
