software-localisation

software-localisation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vasilyu1983/AI-Agents-public. It costs 39 tokens per session (2,930 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to adding and debugging multiple languages in React, Vue, Angular, and Next.js web apps. It covers translated messages, locale-aware formatting, right-to-left layouts, and translation workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up localisation, adding ICU pluralisation and formatting, detecting locales, supporting right-to-left languages, or connecting translation files to a translation-management system.
Why use it?
It helps prevent missing translations, mixed-language screens, incorrect plural forms, and locale fallback errors. It also helps teams choose and configure an internationalisation library.

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

software-localisation 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 19d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/check_examples.py, scripts/check_urls.py, scripts/test_check_regressions.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Software Localisation

Use this skill for production web-app i18n and l10n: library choice, message catalogs, ICU usage, locale routing, translation workflow, RTL, and release gates. The goal is not just translated strings. The goal is locale-safe product behavior.

When to Use This Skill

  • setting up or debugging i18n in React, Vue, Angular, or Next.js
  • choosing libraries and catalog strategy
  • implementing ICU pluralisation, formatting, and locale detection
  • adding RTL support
  • configuring extraction, translation workflow, or TMS integration
  • fixing missing translations, mixed-language regressions, or bad locale fallback behavior
  • delivering backend-generated prose (AI summaries, narratives) to localized web or native clients

Route Elsewhere

  • general frontend architecture -> software-frontend
  • international SEO and hreflang -> marketing-seo
  • cross-cultural UX and market adaptation -> software-ui-ux-design or marketing-geo-localization
  • general WCAG/ARIA compliance and European Accessibility Act (EAA) readiness -> software-accessibility; this skill only covers the i18n-specific slice (lang/dir propagation, script-aware line height, IME) in references/accessibility-i18n.md

When Not to Use This Skill

  • The product has one locale and no committed plan to add more — don't pre-build ICU catalogs, TMS integration, or locale routing "just in case." Ship plain strings and revisit when a second locale is real.
  • The ask is "translate this text" with no code, catalog, or product surface involved — that's a translation task, not a localisation-engineering task; do it directly.
  • The ask is about international SEO structure (hreflang, ccTLD vs subfolder) with no i18n implementation involved -> route to marketing-seo instead.

Native Mobile Boundary

This skill owns strings, plurals, catalogs, and the translation pipeline for native apps as well as web, including backend-generated prose and catalog key/value parity: see references/backend-generated-content-i18n.md. Framework setup here is web-first; the platform APIs belong to software-ios-native, software-android-native, or software-mobile. Anchors to check there:
