On the command line it appears to have two output formats: the standard one which gives some location information and a more complete JSON format <http://proselint.com/utility/> that gives complete location and severity location (which could used to style markup in the LyX interface).
Can someone comment on how LyX uses spellchecker diagnostics to perform continuous markup? A similar approach could be useful with proselint (to parse the JSON output and style the LyX squiggles, perhaps instead of red using blue ala MS Word). Similarly, it would be instructive to know how the spellchecker operates on-demand for running proselint on-demand.
