Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00042 | $0.03300 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.01320 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00660 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00330 |
Grade A, and why
localization 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 7d 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 — 347 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Localization in Godot 4.3+
All examples target Godot 4.3+ with no deprecated APIs; GDScript first, then C#.

1. Core Concepts
How Godot Localization Works
- Wrap all user-facing strings in
tr()— Godot's translation function - Create translation files (CSV or PO) mapping keys to translated strings
- Import translation files as
Translationresources - Switch locale at runtime via
TranslationServer.set_locale()
All Control nodes with text, tooltip_text, or placeholder_text properties auto-translate when the value matches a translation key.
Translation Key Strategies
| Strategy | Example Key | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Semantic keys | MENU_START_GAME |
Clear intent, easy to find | Needs a default language fallback |
| English-as-key | Start Game |
Readable code, no mapping file for English | Breaks if English text changes |
Recommendation: Use semantic keys (
MENU_START_GAME) for production; English-as-key only for prototypes or solo projects.
2. Translation Files
CSV Format
The simplest format. First column is the key, subsequent columns are locale codes.
keys,en,cs,de,ja
MENU_START,Start Game,Začít hru,Spiel starten,ゲームスタート
MENU_OPTIONS,Options,Nastavení,Optionen,オプション
MENU_QUIT,Quit,Ukončit,Beenden,終了
PLAYER_HEALTH,Health: %d,Zdraví: %d,Gesundheit: %d,体力: %d
ITEM_COLLECTED,%s collected!,%s sebráno!,%s gesammelt!,%sを入手！
Save as translations.csv in your project. Godot auto-detects the format on import.
Import settings (Import dock):
- Delimiter: Comma (default) or Tab
- Translations section: enable/disable individual locales
PO Format (Gettext)
Industry-standard format, preferred by translation teams and tools like Poedit, Weblate, Crowdin.
Create a POT template (messages.pot):
What ships with it
4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

localization is a skill published in the GitHub repository jame581/GodotPrompter (851 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 3,300 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.

roblox-localization
Use when adding or fixing Roblox translation: localization tables, auto-translation, locale-specific content, or region detection.
script-execute
Compiles and runs C# in the Unity Editor (Roslyn): plain statements with the last expression as the result, or a full class with a static method. See the skill body for the modes, usings/include and Unity object parameters.
script-delete
Delete one or more .cs script files from disk, refresh the AssetDatabase, and wait for Unity compilation to settle before delivering the final result via the request's requestId. Pair with 'script-read' to inspect files before deletion.
script-read
Read a .cs script file and return its content as a string. Supports a 1-based lineFrom/lineTo slice for partial reads. Pair with 'script-update-or-create' to write back.
script-update-or-create
Write a .cs script file (create or overwrite) with the provided C# code. Validates syntax via Roslyn before write — invalid code is rejected with error details and the file is left untouched. Refreshes the AssetDatabase and delivers the final result via requestId after Unity finishes the triggered compilation. Use…
