readme-i18n is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from figueroaignacio/ignaciofigueroa.dev. It costs 49 tokens per session (1,551 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for translating a repository’s README and maintaining language-specific copies. A README is the main documentation file shown with a code repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create translated README files, update existing translations, add a language switcher, and preserve repository-specific terms and formatting.
Why use it?
It helps make project instructions available in multiple languages without breaking Markdown structure, links, code, or the language selector.

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

readme-i18n 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 177 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Localize a repository README.md without breaking the repo mechanics around it.

The default job is translate + wire-up:

  • read the source-of-truth README
  • create localized sibling files such as README.zh.md
  • preserve GitHub-flavored Markdown structure and repo-specific tokens
  • add or update a shared language selector near the top of every variant

This skill is for multilingual README workflows, not general website/app i18n.

Inputs

Expect these inputs when available:

  • source README path, default README.md
  • source language, default inferred or English
  • one or more target languages
  • optional glossary or do-not-translate list
  • optional filename override if the repo already uses a different multilingual naming pattern

If target languages are not named, inspect existing translated files, selectors, filenames, issues, or prior repo conventions. If that still leaves the target languages unclear, ask once. Do not invent target languages.

Defaults And Decision Rules

  • Treat the root README.md as the source-of-truth unless the user explicitly says otherwise.
  • If the source language is ambiguous, ask once. Otherwise assume English.
  • Keep section order aligned with the source README. Only make a small heading wording adjustment when needed to produce a valid localized anchor.
  • Output localized siblings with README.<bcp47-tag>.md naming unless the repo already has a different established pattern that should be preserved.
  • Update an existing language selector in place. Do not duplicate it.
  • Translate only human-language content.
  • Preserve project names, package names, commands, CLI flags, option names, environment variables, URLs, file paths, inline code, code fences, HTML attributes, and badge/image URLs.
  • Badge alt text or visible labels may be translated only when the change does not require changing the badge URL, query params, or image source.
  • If a glossary or do-not-translate list is provided, apply it consistently across every target language.

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.
