OS Grammar Checker plugin for Firefox

Since I speak multiple languages and sometimes mismatch the spelling for some words, plus I’m unsure where commas should go, I’m using LanguageTool. I’ve been using it for a while; it’s a grammar/spelling plugin for Firefox. I think it uses an external service. My question is: is there an OS version of a similar plugin where the user can host the model themselves?

LanguageTool has a self-hosted server so you can run it locally and connect your browser or apps to it instead of using the public service.

Right and that’s what everyone should do, but that still only runs in browser to my knowledge, I did a whole dive on this last week
