Why use it?
It helps remove hard-coded text and find missing translations or inconsistent locale coverage.

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

localization-toolkit 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/i18n_audit.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.

I18n Expert

Overview

Deliver a complete i18n setup + audit pass: configure the i18n framework, replace user-facing strings with keys, ensure locale parity, and validate pluralization/formatting for en-US and zh-CN.

Core Capabilities

  • Library selection and setup (React, Next.js, Vue).
  • Key architecture and locale file organization.
  • Translation generation and quality strategy (AI, professional, manual).
  • Routing and language detection/switching.
  • SEO and metadata localization (when applicable).
  • RTL support (only if RTL locales are in scope).

Scope Inputs (ask if unclear)

  • Framework and routing style.
  • Existing i18n state (none, partial, legacy).
  • Target locales (default: en-US + zh-CN).
  • Translation quality needs (AI vs professional vs manual).
  • Locale formats in use (JSON, YAML, PO, XLIFF).
  • Formality/cultural requirements (if any).

Workflow (Audit -> Fix -> Validate)

  1. Confirm scope and locale targets
  • Identify the i18n framework and locale locations.
  • Confirm locales; default to en-US + zh-CN when specified.
  1. Setup i18n baseline (if missing)
  • Choose a framework-appropriate library (e.g., React: react-i18next; Next.js: next-intl; Vue: vue-i18n).
  • Install packages and create the i18n entry/config file.
  • Wire the provider at the app root and load locale resources.
  • Add a language switcher and persistence (route/param/localStorage) as appropriate.
  • Establish locale file layout and key namespaces.
  • If routing is locale-aware, define the locale segment strategy early (subpath, subdomain, query param).
  • If metadata is user-facing, include translation for titles/descriptions.
  1. Audit key usage and locale parity
  • Run:
    python scripts/i18n_audit.py --src <src-root> --locale <path/to/en-US.json> --locale <path/to/zh-CN.json>
    
  • Treat missing keys/parity gaps as blockers.
  • Manually verify dynamic keys (t(var)).
  1. Find raw user-facing strings
  • Search:
    rg -n --glob '<src>/**/*.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}' "<[^>]+>[^<{]*[A-Za-z][^<{]*<"
    rg -n --glob '<src>/**/*.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}' "aria-label=\"[^\"]+\"|title=\"[^\"]+\"|placeholder=\"[^\"]+\""
    
  • Localize accessibility labels.

What ships with it

3 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.
