A ChatGPT GitHub Action for Reviewing Text for Potentially Discriminatory Language
This story has been a motivating principle behind my life for a long time, and therefore, whenever I've worked on docs, I've thought about how I could ensure that exclusionary words, even unintentionally, did not make their way into the final copy. During my time at Nexmo, a communications API company, I introduced Alex, an NPM package that helps you identify potentially exclusionary language in your writing, into the CI/CD pipeline for the documentation.

What external tools do you use in your workflow?
As a philosophy student: Zotero for reference management, the Better BibTeX plugin to auto-generate a .bib file, and two language servers for diagnostics: LTeX for grammar- and spellchecking, and alex for style and sensitivity checking.

JavaScript library that converts a string to gender-neutral language?
When using it as a lib you can pass a markdown string (https://github.com/get-alex/alex#markdownvalue-config) or raw text string (https://github.com/get-alex/alex#textvalue-config). This will return an object that should contain everything you need to perform a naive replacement.

Detect Non-Inclusive Language with Retext and Node.js
alex is a lovely command-line tool that takes in text or markdown files and, using retext-equality and retext-profanities, highlights suggestions for improvement. alex checks for gendered work titles, gendered proverbs, ableist language, condescending or intolerant language, profanities, and much more.

Can you suggest a Node.js/JavaScript project scaffolding generator tool?
I am familiar with Yeoman but the project appears dead. There are no replies to recent comments and the last release was a year ago. I would prefer to not use a dead/dying project as the basis for a new work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
