krrkt — Russian Text Quality Checker

CLI tool that scores Russian text 0-10 and flags stop words, stamps, bureaucratese, and other informational style issues. 1200+ pattern dictionary, Glvrd-compatible scoring.

Quick check

krrkt check --no-llm "Text to check"

Always use --no-llm (instant, no API needed). For files: krrkt check --no-llm /path/to/file.txt.

JSON output: krrkt check --no-llm --format json "Text"

Score only: krrkt score --no-llm "Text"

Score: 7.5+ green, 5-7.4 orange, below 5 red

Workflow

Checking existing text: Run krrkt check --no-llm, show the score and key findings (weight 80+). Suggest fixes based on finding descriptions. krrkt already categorizes issues — use its output directly rather than re-analyzing from scratch.

Writing new Russian text: Write it, then run krrkt check --no-llm on your output. If score is below 7, fix the flagged issues and re-check. Deliver the final version with the score.

Checking .md files: Extract prose only — skip YAML frontmatter, code blocks, HTML, markdown syntax.

Batch: for f in *.md; do echo "=== $f ===" && krrkt score --no-llm "$f"; done

Interpreting findings

krrkt output is self-explanatory: each finding has a rule name, weight, and often a description with fix advice. Focus on ■ markers (weight 80-100) — those are the real problems. ▲ (1-79) are suggestions. ○ (0) are informational.

The description field in JSON output often contains the specific fix (e.g., "Замените на «общение»" for pompous words). Use it.

Install

If krrkt is not found: pip install krrkt or uvx krrkt check --no-llm "test".
