i18n
Internationalization guide using react-i18next. Use when adding translations, creating i18n keys, or working with localized text in React components (.tsx files). Triggers on translation tasks, locale management, or i18n implementation.
Best use case
i18n is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

Teams using i18n should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# LobeHub Internationalization Guide
- Default language: Chinese (zh-CN)
- Framework: react-i18next
- **Only edit files in `src/locales/default/`** - Never edit JSON files in `locales/`
- Run `pnpm i18n` to generate translations (or manually translate zh-CN/en-US for dev preview)
## Key Naming Convention
**Flat keys with dot notation** (not nested objects):
```typescript
// ✅ Correct
export default {
'alert.cloud.action': '立即体验',
'sync.actions.sync': '立即同步',
'sync.status.ready': '已连接',
};
// ❌ Avoid nested objects
export default {
alert: { cloud: { action: '...' } },
};
```
**Patterns:** `{feature}.{context}.{action|status}`
**Parameters:** Use `{{variableName}}` syntax
```typescript
'alert.cloud.desc': '我们提供 {{credit}} 额度积分',
```
**Avoid key conflicts:**
```typescript
// ❌ Conflict
'clientDB.solve': '自助解决',
'clientDB.solve.backup.title': '数据备份',
// ✅ Solution
'clientDB.solve.action': '自助解决',
'clientDB.solve.backup.title': '数据备份',
```
## Workflow
1. Add keys to `src/locales/default/{namespace}.ts`
2. Export new namespace in `src/locales/default/index.ts`
3. For dev preview: manually translate `locales/zh-CN/{namespace}.json` and `locales/en-US/{namespace}.json`
4. Remind the user to run `pnpm i18n` before creating PR — do NOT run it yourself (very slow)
## Usage
```tsx
import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next';
const { t } = useTranslation('common');
t('newFeature.title');
t('alert.cloud.desc', { credit: '1000' });
// Multiple namespaces
const { t } = useTranslation(['common', 'chat']);
t('common:save');
```
## Common Namespaces
**Most used:** `common` (shared UI), `chat` (chat features), `setting` (settings)
Others: auth, changelog, components, discover, editor, electron, error, file, hotkey, knowledgeBase, memory, models, plugin, portal, providers, tool, topicRelated Skills
