fastidious
This word is generally formal. It describes a person who pays extreme attention to detail, which can be seen as either a positive trait (being thorough) or a negative trait (being overly fussy). When using this word, remember that it often focuses on the 'small things'—like dust on a shelf or a tiny typo in a report—rather than big-picture goals.

Chloe's gone full fastidious mode. She's literally dusting the baseboards with a toothbrush.
Ryan
Damn that's crazy. Just hop on Discord, we're about to start.
