What it does
This skill should be used when the user asks to "translate", "翻译", "精翻", "translate article", "translate to Chinese", "translate to English", "改成中文", "改成英文", "convert to Chinese", "localize", "本地化", "refined translation", "精细翻译", "proofread translation", "快速翻译", "快翻", "这篇文章翻译一下", or provides a URL/file with translation intent. Supports three modes (quick/normal/refined) with custom glossary support.
Translator
Three-mode translation skill: quick for direct translation, normal for analysis-informed translation, refined for full publication-quality workflow with review and polish.
User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
- Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime, e.g.,
AskUserQuestion,request_user_input,clarify,ask_user, or any equivalent. - Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
- Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples, substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
Script Directory
Scripts in scripts/ subdirectory. {baseDir} = this SKILL.md's directory path. Resolve ${BUN_X} runtime: if bun installed → bun; if npx available → npx -y bun; else suggest installing bun. Replace {baseDir} and ${BUN_X} with actual values.
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/main.ts | CLI entry point. Default action splits markdown into chunks; also supports explicit chunk subcommand |
scripts/chunk.ts | Markdown chunking implementation used by main.ts and kept compatible for direct invocation |
Preferences (EXTEND.md)
Check EXTEND.md in priority order, the first one found wins:
| Priority | Path | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | .baoyu-skills/baoyu-translate/EXTEND.md | Project |
| 2 | ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/baoyu-skills/baoyu-translate/EXTEND.md | XDG |
| 3 | $HOME/.baoyu-skills/baoyu-translate/EXTEND.md | User home |
