Localise

English is the canonical source. The target-language deliverable is derived and review-flagged. This skill produces a target-language version of a finished English deliverable, a target-language companion, or a review of your own target-language draft. It does not author from scratch in the target language.

Supported languages: Romanian (ro, fully curated), French (fr), Spanish (es), Russian (ru). French, Spanish, and Russian are working-draft glossaries refined at use. Adding a further language is a new glossary file.

When to use

Trigger for: localising a finished English brief; producing a target-language companion to an English deliverable; reviewing a target-language draft you wrote. Do not trigger for English voice work (use ane-voice) or instrument design (use instrument-designer).

Modes (detected from input)

1. Localise a finished doc then you provide an English deliverable (paste or path) and get a target-language version plus a QA note.
2. English plus companion then Vi or you provide the finished English deliverable and get a target-language companion alongside it.
3. Review my draft then you provide your target-language draft (plus the English source if available) and corrections are walked one by one, never a silent rewrite.

Image-based deck exports (Storyline / PowerPoint exported to Word). When a mode-3 review target is a slide-deck or e-learning export (e.g. Articulate Storyline .docx/PPT export), the translatable text is rasterized inside the slide images, not live in the document body. The only live text is slide titles and layer labels. Three consequences: (a) read the slide images to review the translation, not the body text; (b) a Word comment cannot sit on text inside an image, so anchor each comment to that slide's title paragraph and have the comment name the slide and give the EN→FR correction; (c) corrections are made in the source deck and re-exported, so also deliver a slide-keyed branded corrections sheet (Slide · EN page · Type · EN source · Current FR · Proposed FR · Why · Severity) as the actionable worklist. python-docx 1.2.0 add_comment(runs, …) preserves the export's unusual package; verify no parts are dropped on save and write to a copy, never the original.
