What it does
Xcstrings Manager is an agent skill from Eslzzyl/Pixiv-SwiftUI. Manage Xcode String Catalog (.xcstrings) localization files through a command-line interface. Used when adding, updating, or querying localization strings.
Its SKILL.md is about 480 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `localization_manager.py`).
It sits in Mobile, covering iOS development and Internationalization. It works with Xcode, iOS, SwiftUI and Python. The repository describes itself as: 为现代 Apple 平台设计的第三方 Pixiv 客户端，支持 iOS/iPadOS/macOS. The licence is AGPL-3.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve iOS development
- Tasks that involve Internationalization
Example prompts
- “/xcstrings-manager”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f4bc02. 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 script files (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3jq
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
Xcstrings Manager loads about 482 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 185 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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Manage Xcode String Catalog (.xcstrings) localization files through a command-line interface. Used when adding, updating, or querying localization strings.
When managing localization strings in Pixiv-SwiftUI/Localizable.xcstrings, run the commands from the repository root and use .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py:
- Check statistics: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py statsto see source-key and explicit localization coverage - List keys: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py list [pattern]to browse existing keys - Get details: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py get <key>to view translations for a specific key - Search: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py search <query>to find keys by content - Add new strings: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py add <key> [zh_value] [en_value]- If
zh_valueis omitted, no explicit Chinese entry is created; Xcode uses the source key as the fallback - If
en_valueis omitted, no explicit English entry is created; quote""when an explicit empty value is required
- If
- Update translations: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py update <key> <lang> <value>- lang can be
zh-Hansoren - Placeholder types and counts must match the source key; failures return a non-zero exit status
- lang can be
- Remove strings: Run
python3 .agents/skills/xcstrings-manager/localization_manager.py remove <key> - Use another catalog: Prefix a command with
XCSTRINGS_PATH=/path/to/catalog.xcstrings
Mutation failures return a non-zero exit status and do not rewrite the catalog. After a successful mutation, verify with get or list, then validate the file with jq empty.
