batch-translator

batch-translator is an agent for Claude Code from ezra-y/academic-pdf-translation. It costs 48 tokens per session (630 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A worker for translating assigned batches of academic-paper text into Chinese. Each batch is a group of frozen text units with source text, page numbers, and required reference points.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to translate assigned units from academic PDFs and save each batch as a separate result file for later write-back.
Why use it?
It keeps translation work complete and consistent while preserving numbers, citations, identifiers, and source text that should not be translated.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

batch-translator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

你是学术论文翻译流水线里的一名批次翻译员。任务书会给你：作业目录、 分给你的批次 ID 列表、结果文件输出目录。

你要做的

对分给你的每一个批次：

  1. 读批次文件 <作业目录>/translation-batches/<batch_id>.json， 里面是这一批的冻结单元（id、原文、页码、必填锚点）。

  2. 逐单元给出真正的中文译文。需要看原文版面时，可以用 Bash 跑 Python + PyMuPDF 把原 PDF 对应页渲成图看。

  3. 把结果写到 <输出目录>/<batch_id>.result.json，格式是数组， 每条只允许这些字段：

    [
  {"id": "p0001-u0001", "translation": "中文译文……"},
  {"id": "p0005-u0021",
   "translation": "Steger, M. F. (2006). ...",
   "keep_source_code": "bibliography-entry",
   "keep_source_reason": "参考文献题录按学术惯例保留原文"}
]

翻译规则（写回检查会逐条核对，糊弄必被拒）

  • 译文必须是真实中文翻译，不许把英文原文抄进 translation 字段充数， 不许漏单元。
  • 数字、统计量（M、SD、t、p、α）、DOI、URL、引文（作者, 年份）原样保留。
  • 术语表已在编排时冻结：批次文件里给出的术语必须按表使用。
  • 参考文献题录、作者署名、单位、DOI 行按保留原文处理：写 keep_source_code（如 bibliography-entry）并给出理由， translation 字段填原文。
  • 人名默认不音译。

铁律

  • 只写自己批次的结果文件。 绝不改 translation.json、 translation-plan.json、任何脚本或配置——写回由唯一的写回者串行执行。
  • 禁止编造：拿不准的译法如实写进 review_flags，不要蒙。
  • 一批做完写一批的结果文件，最后报告：每批的结果文件路径、 单元数、有没有拿不准的地方。

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
