What it does

Translate is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Accurately and fluently translates source text into another language, supporting any language pair. Default target language is Chinese. Use this skill when the user requests translation of Markdown files, batch document translation, or text content translation. Trigger phrases: translate, 翻译,translate markdown, translate document, Chinese translation, batch translate.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/locale-styles.md`, `references/refinement-guide.md` and `references/subagent-prompt.md`).

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Translation. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • The user requests translation of Markdown files
  • Batch document translation
  • Text content translation
  • Phrases: translate

Example prompts

  • “/translate”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Task, Glob, Grep, Bash

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Input Analysis
  2. Read-Through and Preparation
  3. 5: Tone Anchoring (Large-Scale Translations Only)
  4. Translation Execution
  5. Verification
  6. Output Cleanup

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Task
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Translate loads about 4.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~11k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,347 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~11k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Task, Glob, Grep, Bash

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,347 words (~4,734 tokens).

“This skill provides guidelines for accurate, fluent translation, with agent-based parallel processing for large files and multi-file batches.”

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
