Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the reported phrase “Savings Account.” with smart opening and closing quotes and observe the unterminated-quote diagnostics. Trace the quote-handling entry point to find why both typographic quote characters are flagged; done means the phrase is accepted without false-positive warnings while genuine unterminated quotes remain detected.
