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

translation 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 12d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to translation — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 223 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Content: Translation

Guides translation workflow, terminology, style, and quality for multilingual content. Covers when to use human vs machine translation, glossary and style guide creation, and SEO considerations. For i18n implementation, hreflang, and URL structure, see localization-strategy.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Scope

  • Workflow: Brief → translate → review
  • Terminology: Glossary creation and management
  • Style guide: Voice, tone, formatting per language
  • Human vs MT: When to use each; post-editing
  • Quality: QA, consistency, SEO
  • Market-specific: Terminology by region

Initial Assessment

Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read it for brand voice, target markets, and product terminology.

Identify:

  1. Content type: Product UI, marketing copy, blog, landing page, docs
  2. Target language(s): Priority locales
  3. Existing assets: Glossary, style guide, translation memory (TM)

1. Translation Workflow

Brief → Translate → Review

Phase Purpose Output
Brief Context, audience, tone, glossary reference, style guide Translator brief document
Translate First pass; use glossary + TM when available Draft translation
Review Native speaker review; consistency, brand voice, SEO Final translation

Translator Brief

Include in every project:

  • Context: What the content is for (landing page, product UI, blog)
  • Audience: Target market, user persona
  • Tone: Formal, casual, technical
  • Glossary: Link or attach; mandatory terms
  • Style guide: Reference or key rules
  • Constraints: Character limits (UI), SEO keywords to include naturally

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.
