sync-readmes

A documentation-sync tool for keeping one main README and four translated copies aligned. The translations are in Spanish, Hindi, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after editing README.md or when checking specific translated files for drift.
Why use it?
It prevents translated documentation from falling behind after the main README changes. It also preserves code, links, headings, and file structure while updating the text.

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

sync-readmes 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 yesterday.

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

Sync the README translations

README.md at the repository root is canonical. The four translations must mirror it:

  • docs/README.es.md — Spanish
  • docs/README.hi.md — Hindi
  • docs/README.pt-BR.md — Brazilian Portuguese
  • docs/README.zh-CN.md — Simplified Chinese

$ARGUMENTS may name specific locales to sync. If empty, sync all four.

Steps

  1. Determine what changed in README.md. Prefer the real diff (git diff -- README.md, or git log -p -1 -- README.md if it is already committed) over re-reading the whole file — this is a propagation task, not a re-translation.
  2. For each target file, apply the equivalent change in that language. Translate prose; do not translate code blocks, command names, file paths, flags, environment variables, or make targets.
  3. Keep the structure identical to the canonical file: same section order, same emoji in headings, same links, same badges, same relative asset paths. The table-of-contents anchors must match the translated heading text in that file.
  4. Keep Markdown hard-wrapped at ~80 columns, matching the rest of the repo.
  5. If a section exists in README.md but is missing from a translation, add it rather than skipping — report any section you could not confidently translate instead of guessing.
  6. Run make check-diff to catch whitespace errors.

Report which files you changed and any content you deliberately left 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.
