Summary

Implementation
Added
spellcheck: falsetowebPreferencesfor:src/desktop/main.ts) — where all chat/text input happens.src/desktop/terminalWindowManager.ts) — content is code.The splash window has no text inputs, so it was left untouched. Per-element
spellCheck={false}attributes that already existed on individual React inputs remain (now redundant but harmless).Validation
