Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is gurezo/mdn-translation-ja-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on mdn-translation-ja-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mdn-translation-ja-mcp configures →

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

l10n-guideline 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.

What it actually says

L10N Guideline

When to use

  • 逐語訳を避け自然な日本語に意訳するとき
  • UI 要素(ボタン、メニュー、ツールチップ等)の訳語を決めるとき
  • です・ます調・英数記号の全角半角を確認するとき
  • l10n.sourceCommit 等の front-matter を確認するとき

Quick checklist

  • 英語直訳特有の言い回しを避け、余分な主語を削除
  • です・ます調で統一
  • 「Web」→「ウェブ」
  • UI コンテクスト別表現(体言止め、動詞末尾等)を適用
  • ( 前は半角空白、) 後は半角空白
  • front-matter の l10n.sourceCommit が英語版コミットハッシュ
  • 用語集 titleEnglish (日本語)
  • {{GlossarySidebar}} を残さない
  • 原文の語句を省略せず、辞書的意味がずれる訳を避ける
  • 英日併記は初出のみ。括弧内の英語展開も訳す
  • 原文のイタリック等の強調を維持する
  • Wikipedia リンクは概念が一致する言語版を選ぶ

Workflow

  1. 原文の意図を把握し、逐語訳でない訳案を作成
  2. UI 要素の種類を特定し、コンテクスト別ルールを適用
  3. references/l10n-guideline.md で詳細を確認
  4. レビュー慣行は harvest-review-findings の conventions と併用
  5. 表記・用語は editorial-guideline / mozilla-l10n-glossary と併用

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.
