description	Use this skill when users request i18n/localization updates for Android string resources, especially when adding new keys or translating via locale-tui.

Locale TUI Localization

Use this skill for Android localization tasks that should be handled by locale-tui.

When to use

• The user asks to add a new localized string key.
• The user asks to translate/update strings.xml across multiple locales.
• The user mentions i18n/l10n or locale-tui.

Workflow

1. Confirm the target module (for example app).
2. Create/update strings with locale-tui instead of editing all locale files by hand.
3. Prefer auto-translation unless the user asks to skip it.
4. Verify generated changes in affected values-*/strings.xml files.
5. Report the exact files changed and what was added/updated.

Commands

# Add a new string resource with automatic translation
uv run --directory locale-tui src/main.py add <key> "<English Value>" [OPTIONS]

# Examples
uv run --directory locale-tui src/main.py add hello_world "Hello, World!"
uv run --directory locale-tui src/main.py add greeting "Welcome" -m app
uv run --directory locale-tui src/main.py add test_key "Test" --skip-translate

Options

• --module, -m: Specify module name (defaults to first module in config)
• --skip-translate: Add only to source language and skip translations

Constraints

• Input value should be English.
• If user explicitly requests localization, ensure all configured languages are updated.
• Do not commit secrets or API keys.
