Localization
johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering
A skill your agent uses when implementing internationalization (i18n), String Catalogs, pluralization, or right-to-left layout support.
Inspect and edit Xcode String Catalogs (.xcstrings) via bundled l10n.sh and findunusedkeys.sh scripts, and apply Apple localization conventions.

What it does
Localization is an agent skill from CamilleScholtz/swmpc. Inspect and edit Xcode String Catalogs (.xcstrings) via bundled l10n.sh and findunusedkeys.sh scripts, and apply Apple localization conventions.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/best-practices.md`, `scripts/find_unused_keys.sh` and `scripts/l10n.sh`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Internationalization and iOS development. It works with Xcode. The repository describes itself as: An MPD client for macOS & iOS.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Internationalization
- Tasks that involve iOS development
Example prompts
- “/localization”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51fa7cb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
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
Localization loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 598 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
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
Its licence (EUPL-1.2) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 598 words (~1,205 tokens).
“The scripts work on any Xcode String Catalog (.xcstrings). They auto-discover the catalog by searching the project for .xcstrings files (preferring Localizable.xcstrings when several exist) and can be pointed at a specific one with the L10N_FILE env var. Run l10n.sh…”

Questions about Localization
What does Localization do?
Inspect and edit Xcode String Catalogs (.xcstrings) via bundled l10n.sh and findunusedkeys.sh scripts, and apply Apple localization conventions. Localization is an agent skill from CamilleScholtz/swmpc.sh scripts, and apply Apple localization conventions.
When should I use Localization?
Localization fits situations like: tasks that involve Internationalization; tasks that involve iOS development.
How do I install Localization in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add CamilleScholtz/swmpc --skill localization -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/localization in CamilleScholtz/swmpc) into .claude/skills/localization in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Localization in Codex?
Run `npx skills add CamilleScholtz/swmpc --skill localization -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/localization in CamilleScholtz/swmpc) into .agents/skills/localization in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Localization in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add CamilleScholtz/swmpc --skill localization -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/localization, .gemini/skills/localization, .github/skills/localization and .opencode/skills/localization in your project.
What does Localization need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Localization needs a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: A Bash shell.
Does Localization access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Localization safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. 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.
What licence does Localization use?
Localization is published under the EUPL-1.2 licence (the repository's licence).
How many tokens does Localization use?
About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.4k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
What are the alternatives to Localization?

The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
