Adds a community skill that turns the agent into the translation layer
for JSON locale files, delegating the deterministic work (key diffing,
lockfile staleness tracking, placeholder/glossary validation, safe JSON
writes) to the locakit CLI (npm, MIT, zero dependencies).
What makes it different from API-based translation flows:
- No translation API keys or SaaS accounts; the agent itself translates
- The skill instructs the agent to read each key's real usage context
in the codebase before translating (nav label vs page title vs toast)
- locakit apply rejects keys that don't exist in the source locale,
containing hallucinated keys
- locakit check gives CI-enforceable validation incl. a Turkish
language pack (suffix-after-placeholder, dotless-uppercase-i)
Validated end-to-end on a production Next.js 16 portfolio: 175 keys
translated tr->en in one pass, locakit check reporting 0 errors.
