What it does

Commandkit I18n is an agent skill from neplexlabs/commandkit. Implement localization with @commandkit/i18n and i18next. Use for locale resources, command metadata translations, and locale-aware runtime helpers.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/00-filesystem-structure.md` and `references/01-plugin-setup.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Internationalization. The repository describes itself as: The discord.js meta-framework with features such as AI-powered command handler, analytics, feature flags, and more. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Locale resources
  • Command metadata translations
  • Locale-aware runtime helpers

Example prompts

  • “/commandkit-i18n”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Register i18n() plugin.
  2. Build locale directory and translation files.
  3. Add $command keys for metadata localization.
  4. Use ctx.locale() in commands and locale() in events/utilities.
  5. Validate missing-key and fallback behavior.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d771e6b. 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 (JavaScript), 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

Commandkit I18n loads about 546 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 135 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
~546
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.2k

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.

CommandKit i18n Plugin

Activation guidance

Use for multilingual command metadata and translated runtime responses.

Required filesystem expectations

  • plugin registration in commandkit.config.ts
  • locale files under src/app/locales/<locale>/*.json
  • command/event handlers in src/app/commands/** and src/app/events/**

Execution workflow

  1. Register i18n() plugin.
  2. Build locale directory and translation files.
  3. Add $command keys for metadata localization.
  4. Use ctx.locale() in commands and locale() in events/utilities.
  5. Validate missing-key and fallback behavior.

Guardrails

  • Keep translation keys stable across locales.
  • Ensure all required keys exist in baseline locale.
