What it does

Installer Localization is an agent skill from Devolutions/devolutions-gateway. Add or change Windows installer (MSI) strings or languages for Devolutions Gateway or Devolutions Agent. Use whenever touching Strings.json, .wxl, Strings.g.tt, Strings.g.cs, or adding a translation to package/WindowsManaged or package/AgentWindowsManaged, including contributor translation PRs.

Its SKILL.md is about 620 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Internationalization and Translation. The repository describes itself as: A blazing fast relay server adaptable to different protocols and desired levels of traffic inspection. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Touching Strings.json
  • Adding a translation to package/WindowsManaged
  • Package/AgentWindowsManaged
  • Including contributor translation PRs

Example prompts

  • “/installer-localization”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Edit Resources/Strings_.json in the project.
  2. Run package\Update-InstallerLocalization.ps1 (-Product agent|gateway).
  3. Rerun the script and confirm git status shows no new changes.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62de985. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Installer Localization loads about 618 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 266 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~618

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.

description
Add or change Windows installer (MSI) strings or languages for Devolutions Gateway or Devolutions Agent. Use whenever touching Strings_*.json, *.wxl, Strings.g.tt, Strings.g.cs, or adding a translation to package/WindowsManaged or package/AgentWindowsManaged, including contributor translation PRs.

Installer localization

Installer strings are authored in Strings_<culture>.json and generated by the T4 template Strings.g.tt into <Product>_<culture>.wxl and Strings.g.cs. Never hand-edit *.wxl or Strings.g.cs. A contributor PR that adds or edits a .wxl directly must be converted to JSON first.

Projects: package/WindowsManaged (Gateway, product DevolutionsGateway) and package/AgentWindowsManaged (Agent, product DevolutionsAgent).

Change strings

  1. Edit Resources/Strings_<culture>.json in the project. Add new keys to Strings_en-US.json first, in the matching section. Keep {0} and [Property] tokens identical to English. Use \n for line breaks.
  2. Run package\Update-InstallerLocalization.ps1 (-Product agent|gateway). It needs Visual Studio's TextTransform.exe (found through vswhere, or pass -TextTransformPath).
  3. Rerun the script and confirm git status shows no new changes.

Add a language

Use sv-SE (LCID 1053) in the Agent as the model.

  1. Create Strings_<culture>.json with the same structure as Strings_en-US.json, and set the Language entry to the decimal LCID.
  2. Add the culture to the cultures array in Strings.g.tt.
  3. Add the culture to the Languages dictionary and to the language selection in Project_UIInitialized (Program.cs).
  4. Add None Remove and EmbeddedResource entries for the new .wxl in the .csproj.
  5. Add the language and LCID to Get-PackageLanguages or Get-GatewayPackageLanguages in ci/Build/Build.psm1, and to PackageLanguages or GatewayPackageLanguages in ci/tlk.ps1.
  6. Add <culture>.* to the project's .gitignore.
  7. Run the generator.
  8. Translate the dialogs.firewall strings, as in Strings_fr-FR.json. WiX 3 ships them for only a few cultures, and light fails without them.
  9. Build every language, either through the build-agent-msi skill or with source-only builds, then run ci/package-assembled.ps1 to confirm each transform embeds.

ci/package-assembled.ps1 and ci/tlk.ps1 read the language lists above; do not hardcode languages elsewhere.
