translate-book AGENTS.md

translate-book AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from deusyu/translate-book. It costs 1,157 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a Codex Skill that translates PDF, DOCX, and EPUB books into another language using parallel subagents. It documents the scripts for conversion, glossary management, chunk tracking, merging, and publishing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing or running the book-translation skill. It supports preparing book chunks, maintaining consistent terminology, selectively retranslating, and building finished document formats.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent a shared map of the translation project and the checks expected after edits, reducing mistakes in a multi-step workflow.

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

translate-book AGENTS.md 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 4d 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.

AGENTS.md

Project

translate-book is a Codex Skill that translates books (PDF/DOCX/EPUB) into any language using parallel subagents. Published on ClawHub as translate-book and on GitHub as deusyu/translate-book.

Structure

  • SKILL.md — Skill definition, the orchestration logic that Codex / OpenClaw follows
  • scripts/convert.py — PDF/DOCX/EPUB → Markdown chunks (via Calibre HTMLZ)
  • scripts/manifest.py — SHA-256 chunk tracking and merge validation
  • scripts/glossary.py — Term-consistency glossary; per-chunk term tables injected into sub-agent prompts
  • scripts/chunk_context.py — Read-only previous/next chunk excerpts injected into sub-agent prompts
  • scripts/meta.py — Per-chunk sub-agent observation file schema
  • scripts/merge_meta.py — Batch-boundary merge of sub-agent observations into the canonical glossary
  • scripts/run_state.py — Selective re-translation planner and run_state.json recorder
  • scripts/merge_and_build.py — Merge translated chunks → HTML/DOCX/EPUB/PDF
  • scripts/calibre_html_publish.py — Calibre format conversion wrapper
  • scripts/template.html, scripts/template_ebook.html — HTML templates

Testing changes

Use a small file for quick checks, or the checked-in baseline book for the repository's full-pipeline test.

Quick smoke test:

python3 scripts/convert.py /path/to/small.pdf --olang zh
# then run translation via the skill
python3 scripts/merge_and_build.py --temp-dir <name>_temp --title "test"

Full baseline test:

mkdir -p tests/.artifacts
cd tests/.artifacts
python3 ../../scripts/convert.py ../baselines/standard-alice/standard-alice.epub --olang zh
# then run translation via the skill
python3 ../../scripts/merge_and_build.py --temp-dir standard-alice_temp --title "test"

Verify: all output_chunk*.md files exist, manifest validation passes, output formats generate.

Conventions

  • Only chunk*.md naming — no page* legacy support
  • SKILL.md frontmatter must stay single-line per field (OpenClaw parser requirement)
  • Script paths in SKILL.md use {baseDir} not hardcoded paths
  • Subagent instructions in SKILL.md must be platform-neutral (work on Codex, OpenClaw, Codex)
  • Checked-in baseline inputs live under tests/baselines/<book-id>/; generated full-pipeline outputs live under tests/.artifacts/
  • README changes must be synced to both README.md and README.zh-CN.md
  • Releases follow .claude/commands/release.md — three commands in order: git push origin main, git tag vX.Y.Z && git push --tags, npx clawhub@latest publish ./ --version X.Y.Z. Do not skip the git tag; it's the only version anchor in the repo

Changes

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.
