What it does

I18n Localizer is an agent skill from dataelement/bisheng. Internationalize a module by extracting hardcoded Chinese strings, generating translation keys, and updating all three locale files (en, zh-Hans, ja).

Its SKILL.md is about 170 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files (for example `resources/CONVENTIONS.md`, `resources/CONVENTIONS_PLATFORM.md` and `resources/INSTRUCTIONS.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Internationalization and Translation. It works with React. The repository describes itself as: BISHENG is an open LLM devops platform for next generation Enterprise AI applications. Powerful and comprehensive features include: GenAI workflow, RAG, Agent, Unified model… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Internationalization
  • Tasks that involve Translation

Example prompts

  • “/i18n-localizer”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the Workflow: Read the content of resources/INSTRUCTIONS.md for the complete step-by-step process.
  2. Read the Conventions: Read resources/CONVENTIONS.md for key naming rules and usage patterns.
  3. Execute: Follow the workflow to localize the target module.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cb9b77a. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

I18n Localizer loads about 166 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 63 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~166

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
