SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill validates a translated string against the original by ensuring placeholders are preserved, checking for empty translations, length ratios, and common encoding issues to prevent problematic localization updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

Placeholder preservation: Verifies that all original placeholders exist in the translation.
Blocking issues: Reports missing or extra placeholders and syntax changes as blocking problems.
Warnings: Flags potential quality concerns like identical-to-English translations or unusual length ratios.

Quick Start

original_text: "Hello {{name}}" translated_text: "Hola {{name}}" target_language_code: "es" Output: { valid: true, issues: [], warnings: [] }
