File Description
README.md Removes Paper UI feature mention and some badge definitions; still contains a typo in the intro sentence.
docs/USAGE.md Updates config default descriptions and the Settings shortcut; defaults currently conflict with effective runtime behavior due to deprecated fallback.
CONTRIBUTING.md Updates add-ons repo link and VS Code typings path; wording still references “openHAB2 addons”.
CHANGELOG.md Adds a “Removed” section for update-notice features, but it does not match the current codebase (features still present).
.vscode/settings.json Adds cSpell words for project terminology.
