| 51 | }, |
| 52 | "results": [ |

| 57 | } |
| 58 | ``` |
| 59 | |
| 60 | ## Use Cases |
| 61 | |
| 62 | - **Pre-search query cleanup**: Check spelling before deciding which search endpoint to call |
| 63 | - **"Did you mean?" UI**: Show users a corrected suggestion before running the search |
| 64 | - **Batch query normalization**: Clean up user inputs in bulk |
| 65 | |
| 66 | ## Notes |
| 67 | |
| 68 | - **Built-in alternative**: Web Search and LLM Context have `spellcheck=true` by default — use this standalone endpoint only when you need the correction before searching |
| 69 | - **Context-aware**: Corrections consider the full query context, not just individual words |
