i18n-arb

i18n-arb is a cursor rule for Cursor from first-fluke/fullstack-starter. It costs 0 tokens per session (370 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

ARB-based localization standards — ARB as the single cross-platform source of truth for UI strings.

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

i18n-arb 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 today.

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

ARB-Based Localization

When ARB files exist in the project, they are the single source of truth for all user-facing strings — regardless of target platform. A build step generates the platform-specific artifacts from ARB (e.g. JSON for web, generated Dart for Flutter).

  1. Never hardcode UI strings — all user-visible text must come from ARB files (*.arb)
  2. Edit ARB first — when adding or changing UI text, update the ARB file, then run the i18n build
  3. Build after changes — run the project's i18n build task (e.g. mise i18n:build, or dart run build_runner build in a Flutter package) to regenerate localized output (JSON for web, generated Dart, etc.). Prefer the mise task when one exists.
  4. Generated output is never hand-edited — change the ARB and rebuild; treat the emitted JSON/Dart as derived artifacts
  5. Base locale — the primary ARB file (e.g., app_en.arb) is the reference; other locales derive from it
  6. Key naming — use camelCase keys describing the purpose, not the content: loginButton not clickHere
  7. Placeholders — use ICU message syntax for interpolation: "greeting": "Hello, {name}!"
  8. Do not translate keys — ARB keys are identifiers, always in English

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.
