## Description

Translate existing blog posts into one or more target languages with SEO-optimized localization. Produces native-quality translations that preserve markdown structure, frontmatter, schema JSON-LD, image and chart embeds, and evidence-backed explanations. Localizes keywords, meta tags, numbers, dates, currencies, and quote styles per locale. Flags machine-translation artifacts for review. Run BEFORE blog-localize: this handles language conversion; localize handles cultural adaptation after translation completes. Use when user says "translate blog", "blog translate", "uebersetzen", "traduire", "traducir", "translate post", "blog auf Deutsch", "blog en espanol".

# Blog Translate, SEO-Optimized Blog Translation

Bundled paths below use host Markdown substitution of `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}`;
it is not an exported shell variable. Resolve them before execution, quote
paths, and refuse nonabsolute overrides. Pass `blog_reference_root` resolved
from `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/references`, `blog_template_root` from
`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/templates`, and needed sibling roots to agents.
Read the main reference `orchestration-details.md` before loading project
context; pass only its helper-fenced output to downstream agents.

Translates an existing blog post into one or more target languages. Unlike
generic translation, this skill produces SEO-optimized, publication-ready
content with localized keywords, meta tags, and culturally correct
formatting.
