Grammarly Production Checklist

Overview

Grammarly provides AI-powered writing assistance with grammar checking, tone detection, plagiarism scanning, and style suggestions. A production integration processes user-submitted text through Grammarly's API and returns actionable suggestions. Failures mean unchecked content goes live, suggestion latency degrades UX, or sensitive text leaks outside approved processing boundaries.

Authentication & Secrets

• GRAMMARLY_API_KEY stored in secrets manager (not config files)
• Client credentials (ID + secret) separated from application code
• Token refresh logic handles expiry before API calls fail
• Separate credentials for dev/staging/prod environments
• Key rotation schedule documented (90-day cycle)
