premiumAlways option on Embedded HTTP Server

Hello all. I hope you are well.

I am running an Embedded HTTP languagetool Server on my laptop using the following directions: LanguageTool embedded HTTP Server | dev.languagetool.org

I see that one of the options for the server is --premiumAlways. The description for it is activate the premium rules even when user has no username/password - useful for API servers.

Does running this option mean that I get premium rules for free? (I’m not a premium customer at this time.)

I am apprehensive to run the option to test it out because I don’t want break my setup. Lolz.

Any help and explanations are appreciated. Thank you for your time and help.

No, you actually need the premium version (as an on-premise software) to use this option.

Whether there are rules that are not supported by the HTTP Server, but supported by the regular one (for example, AI_HYDRA_LEO_MISSING_COMMA)?

Please contact support (email at Imprint - LanguageTool) about this.
