Adds the NoAnimalViolence Vale package to the existing Vale setup. This package flags phrases that normalize violence toward animals (e.g. "kill two birds with one stone", "beat a dead horse", "cattle vs. pets") and suggests clearer professional alternatives.

Changes

  • .vale.ini: add NoAnimalViolence package URL to Packages = and NoAnimalViolence to BasedOnStyles

The package

The vale-no-animal-violence package detects phrases like:

  • "kill two birds with one stone" → "accomplish two things at once"
  • "beat a dead horse" → "belabor the point"
  • "guinea pig" → "test subject"
  • "cattle vs. pets" → "ephemeral vs. persistent"
  • "canary deployment" → "progressive rollout"
  • "monkey patch" → "runtime patch"

All rules are at warning level — informational, not blocking.

Part of the Open Paws no-animal-violence toolchain for inclusive language.
