Review Apple text code for correctness, performance, and modernization risk in a single pass with severity-ranked findings. Covers TextKit 1 fallback triggers, NSTextStorage subclass correctness (edited / changeInLength / batched edits), didProcessEditing character-mutation bugs, deprecated glyph APIs, full-document ensureLayout, missing allowsNonContiguousLayout, NSLinguisticTagger / UIMenuController deprecations, missing performEditingTransaction wrappers on TextKit 2, Writing Tools coordinator gaps (writingToolsIgnoredRangesIn, isWritingToolsActive), String-vs-NSString length confusion in range arithmetic, and main-thread storage rules. Use when a user asks to audit, scan, or review a text editor codebase, when preparing an editor for shipping, when triaging a post-release regression in TextKit code, or when a pull request needs a structured pass focused on text-specific risks.
