KAERIS i18n

List every target language KAERIS can translate into. Returns a mapping of language code → English name (e.g. {"es": "Spanish", ...}). Use the codes with kaeris_translate / kaeris_translate_file.

Discover a repo's i18n setup: which locale files exist, what the base (source) language and target languages are, and which framework/convention is in use. Purely local — reads the filesystem, makes no API call. Use this FIRST when asked to "look at/audit/fix this repo's i18n" and you don't already know the source file — it tells you where to point kaeris_status / kaeris_list_missing_keys / kaeris_add_language. Supports i18next/react-i18next (locales/<lang>/*.json), next-intl (messages/<lang>.json), vue-i18n (src/locales/<lang>.json), Flutter ARB (lib/l10n/*.arb), Android (res/values[-<lang>]/strings.xml), iOS (<lang>.lproj/Localizable.strings), gettext (locale/<lang>/LC_MESSAGES/*.po), Xcode String Catalogs (Localizable.xcstrings — one file holding every language, read out of the catalog itself), XLIFF (.xliff/.xlf), Java/Spring .properties, .NET RESX, Mozilla Fluent (.ftl), Markdown/MDX, plus plain <lang>.json/.yaml/.csv files anywhere else. Skips node_modules, .git, build/dist output and other noise; bounded so it's safe on large repos. Args: path: directory to scan (default: current directory). Returns: { "root": "<abs path scanned>", "locale_files": ["locales/en.json", "locales/de.json", ...], "base_lang": "en", # best guess, or null if none found/ambiguous "target_langs": ["de", "fr"], # languages present other than base_lang "framework": "i18next", # best guess, or null if unrecognized "file_count": 2 }

Completeness/health check for every target locale against a source file — the "i18n firewall". Works for EVERY supported format: JSON is checked fully offline; other formats (.arb/.strings/.po/.xml/.ftl/…) are parsed by the backend /api/parse endpoint (no translation, no cost). For each target language reports missing keys, extra/stale keys, placeholder mismatches (e.g. "Hello {name}" -> "Bonjour" loses {name}, or "{name}" -> "{nom}" which crashes str.format()/ICU at runtime), and the same quality detectors the CLI firewall gates a merge on: number drift ("Delete 5 files" -> "Delete 50 files"), lost inline tags, broken entities or escapes, missing ICU/CLDR plural categories. Those come back under "faults" (RED — they set ok=false) and "warnings" (YELLOW — advisory). Use this to find out what's broken before deciding whether to call kaeris_list_missing_keys (existing locale, some keys missing/broken) or kaeris_add_language (locale doesn't exist yet at all). Args: source: path to the base-language locale file, e.g. "locales/en.json" or "lib/l10n/app_en.arb" (typically kaeris_scan_repo's base_lang file). langs: target language codes to check, e.g. ["de", "fr"]. If omitted, falls back to kaeris.json's "langs" if present, else auto-discovers sibling <lang> files next to the source. out: directory containing the target locale files (default: source's own directory; each target is expected at "<out>/<lang><source-ext>", e.g. de.json for en.json, de.arb for en.arb). Returns: { "ok": bool, "missing": {lang: [keys]}, "extra": {lang: [keys]}, "placeholder_issues": [{"lang","key","missing","added"}, ...], "faults": [{"lang","key","severity":"error","msg"}, ...], # RED — ok is false "warnings": [{"lang","key"?,"severity":"warn","msg"}, ...], # YELLOW — advisory "missi

The exact keys missing or placeholder-broken in ONE target locale, with their source-language text, so an agent knows exactly what to translate/fix. Every supported format works (JSON offline; others via the backend /api/parse, no cost) — use kaeris_add_language or kaeris_translate to actually fill them in. The answer is PAGED: "missing_count" is always the exact total, while "missing" / "missing_values" carry one page of it (default 200 entries, and never more than about 15k tokens' worth). A whole locale file returned in one tool result is not a long answer, it is the end of the agent's session — measured 16.08.2026: a 2 MB source file, the size the product accepts, produced 667 000 tokens in a single reply. When there is a next page, "page.next_offset" says where it starts. Args: source: path to the base-language locale file, e.g. "locales/en.json" or "app_en.arb". lang: the target language code to inspect, e.g. "de". out: directory containing the target locale file (default: source's own directory; expected at "<out>/<lang><source-ext>", e.g. de.json / de.arb). limit: how many missing keys to return in this call (default 200, max 2000). offset: where to start — pass "page.next_offset" from the previous call. Returns: { "lang": "de", "missing_file": bool, "missing_count": 1234, # ALWAYS the exact total "missing": ["<dotted.key>", ...], # one page of them "missing_values": {"<dotted.key>": "<source text>", ...}, # the same page "page": {"total", "returned", "offset", "complete", "next_offset"?, "note"?}, "extra": ["<dotted.key>", ...], "extra_count": 12, "placeholder_issues": [{"key","missing","added"}, ...], "placeholder_issue_count": 3 }

Bootstrap a BRAND-NEW target locale by translating the entire source file into it and writing the result. Use this when kaeris_scan_repo/kaeris_status show a language with no locale file at all yet (in "missing_files"). This CALLS THE TRANSLATION API (same as kaeris_translate_file) — unlike kaeris_scan_repo/kaeris_status/kaeris_list_missing_keys, which are local-only and free. For an EXISTING locale that's just missing a few keys, prefer kaeris_translate_file(..., only_new=True) so you don't re-translate the whole file. Args: source: path to the base-language locale file, e.g. "locales/en.json". lang: the new target language code to create, e.g. "de". out: output directory (default: source file's own directory). tone: "formal" or "casual" to steer register; "" (default) is neutral. icu: True if the source uses ICU MessageFormat (plurals/select), so the model preserves the syntax instead of translating it. keep: optional list of terms to NEVER translate (brand/product names). context: one line about what the app IS, e.g. "a mobile bank for teenagers" or "a wildlife documentary app". The model uses it to pick the right sense of ambiguous strings — "Bank" becomes Ufer in the second and Bank in the first. You are reading the repo, so you know this: pass it. Max 300 chars. api_key / openrouter_key: optional auth overrides. PREFER the KAERIS_API_KEY / KAERIS_OPENROUTER_KEY environment variables: a key passed as a tool argument is written into the conversation transcript and into the MCP client's logs, where it outlives this task. job_id: leave empty to start a translation. If a previous call came back with {"status": "running", "job_id": ...}, pass that id (with the same source/out) to collect the finished result instead of paying for the work twice

Translate a set of UI strings into one or more languages. Format-aware and placeholder-safe: values like "Hello, {name}" keep their placeholders intact. Non-string values are passed through unchanged. Includes Translation QA so you can trust the output: it flags translations that dropped a placeholder or that grew long enough to risk overflowing the UI. With verify=True it also back-translates each result into back_lang so you can check the meaning is right even in a language you can't read. Args: strings: key → source-text pairs, e.g. {"greeting": "Hello", "save": "Save"}. target_languages: language codes from kaeris_list_languages, e.g. ["es", "fr", "ja"]. keep: optional list of terms to NEVER translate — kept verbatim in every language (brand/product names), e.g. ["KAERIS", "GitHub"]. context: one line about what the app IS, e.g. "a mobile bank for teenagers" or "a wildlife documentary app". The model uses it to pick the right sense of ambiguous strings — "Bank" becomes Ufer in the second and Bank in the first. You are reading the repo, so you know this: pass it. Max 300 chars. verify: back-translation and meaning check for your review — back-translates into back_lang and flags lines whose meaning may have changed (uses more tokens). back_lang: language for the verify back-translation (default "en"). tone: "formal" or "casual" to steer register; "" (default) is neutral. icu: True if values may contain ICU MessageFormat (plurals/select) so the model preserves the syntax instead of translating it. reuse: optional {lang: {key: previous_translation}} translation-memory map — strings that are unchanged from a prior run are reused verbatim server-side and only new/changed strings are actually translated. api_key / openrouter_key: optional auth overr

Translate a strings file on disk and write the results next to it. Supports JSON, YAML, .strings, Xcode String Catalogs (.xcstrings), .po, ARB, Android XML, CSV, XLIFF 1.2, Java/Spring .properties, .NET RESX, Mozilla Fluent (.ftl) and Markdown/MDX — every format the API accepts. With only_new=True (JSON), translates just the keys missing from existing target files and merges. Args: file_path: path to the source file, e.g. "locales/en.json". target_languages: language codes, e.g. ["de", "uk", "zh"]. out_dir: where to write outputs (default: the source file's directory). only_new: reproducible incremental mode — translate only new AND edited keys, tracked via kaeris.lock (a tone/ICU/glossary change re-translates all); unchanged stays stable. JSON and ARB only — for any other format the whole file is translated (and charged), and the result says so in "note". keep: optional list of terms to NEVER translate — kept verbatim in every language (brand/product names), e.g. ["KAERIS", "GitHub"]. context: one line about what the app IS, e.g. "a mobile bank for teenagers" or "a wildlife documentary app". The model uses it to pick the right sense of ambiguous strings — "Bank" becomes Ufer in the second and Bank in the first. You are reading the repo, so you know this: pass it. Max 300 chars. verify: back-translation and meaning check for your review; with only_new the result carries them as "back_translations". back_lang: language for the verify back-translation (default "en"). tone: "formal" or "casual" to steer register; "" (default) is neutral. icu: True if values may contain ICU MessageFormat (plurals/select) so the model preserves the syntax instead of translating it. reuse: optional {lang: {key: previous_translation}} translatio
