📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds 26 localized Android string sets and translation synchronization and validation tooling. Gradle runs local synchronization before builds outside CI. CI runs translation tests. The change also documents localization rules and replaces one hard-coded error message with a localized string.

Changes

Localization workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Locale resources and conventions
app/src/main/res/values*/strings.xml, app/src/main/res/resources.properties, app/src/main/java/com/andryoga/safebox/ui/home/settings/SettingsScreen.kt
Adds translated strings for 26 locales, marks selected English resources as non-translatable, updates integer placeholders, configures the default locale, and uses a localized email-launch error message.
Translation synchronization and validation
scripts/translations.py, scripts/tests/translations-test.sh
Adds local key synchronization, lock-file updates, CI validation, and tests for key changes, stale translations, placeholders, escaping, and invariant tokens.
Build, CI, and localization guidance
app/build.gradle, .github/workflows/ci.yml, .agents/skills/localization/SKILL.md, docs/architecture/localization.md, docs/README.md
Integrates local synchronization with preBuild, runs translation tests in CI, and documents locale configuration, translation workflows, and validation rules.

- Around line 457-464: Update the --update-lock flow around save_lock and
run_ci_check to preserve the existing lock contents before writing the candidate
lock. If run_ci_check fails, restore the previous lock, or remove the candidate
if no lock existed; keep the successful update and return behavior unchanged.

Suggestion: The current regex patterns assume that name is always the first attribute immediately following <string. If other attributes (such as translatable="false") precede name, the regex will fail to match, preventing deletions or renames. Update the patterns to allow preceding attributes using [^>]*. [possible issue, importance: 6]

Proposed code (not offered as a committable change because the existing code does not match the anchored range):

    # 1. Delete removed / non-translatable keys (match self-closing or standard <string> block)

Suggestion: Using a simple substring check (token in en_text) can lead to false positives if an invariant token is a substring of another word (for example, "MICR" matching inside "MICRO"). Use regular expressions with word boundaries (\b) to ensure tokens are matched as whole words. [general, importance: 7]

Suggestion: If run_ci_check raises an exception (for example, due to invalid XML parsing), the lock file restoration logic is bypassed, leaving the candidate lock file on disk. Wrap the verification in a try...finally block to guarantee rollback of the lock file on any failure or exception. [possible issue, importance: 6]

Proposed code (not offered as a committable change because the existing code does not match the anchored range):

    # Write candidate lock first, then run full CI check; restore previous lock if check fails
    current_hashes = {k: sha256_text(v) for k, v in en_translatable.items()}
    previous = lock_path.read_text(encoding="utf-8") if lock_path.is_file() else None

Suggestion: The current format specifier regex only matches %s, %d, and %%. If other standard Java/Android format specifiers (such as %f for floats or %x for hex) are introduced in the future, they will be ignored, potentially leading to undetected translation mismatches. Expand the regex to support other common specifiers and make it case-insensitive. [general, importance: 5]
