PhraseGarden

PhraseGarden makes reusable instructions for an AI chat or language tool. Choose the languages and task, copy the instructions, then paste them into the other tool before sending the words you want translated or practiced. The app is static and works locally in the browser: it does not translate source text, call an AI model, or send settings to a project server.

The public Preview centers English↔Japanese. Both directions use one exact, versioned pair pack and are labeled Preview because external linguistic review has not been completed. Every other direction between bundled language profiles uses the conservative Generic compiler and receives no endpoint- or pair-specific linguistic guidance.

Use PhraseGarden

Open the public Prompt Studio at jkolantree.github.io/phrasegarden. Earlier versioned releases and downloadable assets are available from the PhraseGarden releases. Preview 8 added a prominent English/Japanese page-language choice and a complete Japanese Preview interface, but its exact Linux Pages run returned before upload or deployment on a 320 × 900 Home-layout failure. Preview 9 made a separately versioned density correction. Its exact Actions run 32416506948 also returned 13/15 Linux Chromium journeys: both failing checks measured the same untouched-English Home action at 823.75 px, beyond the required 800 px. The Japanese Linux state was not reached, and upload and deployment were skipped. The post-run comparison recorded exact Preview 7 public bytes at that time; that is not a refreshed claim about the current hosted page.

0.1.0-preview.10 is the new recovery target. It preserves the Preview 9 product, prompt, language, tier, and privacy behavior while correcting only the causal narrow, short-screen CSS wrap and spacing budget. This source record alone establishes no S10, package, deployment, tag, or GitHub Release.

Run locally

Requirements: Node.js 24 or later and pnpm 11.9.0.

pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
pnpm dev

Then:

1. Confirm the language direction and task, or change them.
2. Choose Make my instructions. The defaults work for most people.
3. If tone or context matters, open Adjust tone or context first.
4. On Review, read the support note and known limitation.
5. Copy or download the instructions and paste them into a compatible tool.

PhraseGarden never asks for the words you want to translate. Paste the generated instructions into a language tool of your choice, then provide source text there.

What Preview 10 preserves and corrects

• Complete English and Japanese page interfaces, with the Japanese catalog explicitly labeled as an unreviewed Preview
• A conspicuous start-in-your-language choice that never overwrites work after a visitor changes settings, generates instructions, or edits them
• English→Japanese and Japanese→English Preview guidance
• Conservative Generic generation for all other bundled directions
• Identity-only profiles for French, German, Italian, Spanish, and region-unspecified Portuguese; these add no language-specific guidance
• Translate writing, Practice speaking, and one-way Translate a conversation tasks, backed by the existing versioned recipes
• One plain-language fast path with safe defaults and no required Builder stop
• Optional relationship, tone, and detail controls shown before advanced policy detail
• Copy-first Review, explicit destination privacy, and a bounded complete-text reading and editing area
• One progressive Advanced settings disclosure for uncommon controls
• Relationship, hierarchy, register, ambiguity, name, teaching, correction, pronunciation, pace, Interpreter turn, and clarification controls
• Pure deterministic compiler, validation, provenance, warnings, and summaries
• Visible and editable generated prompts
• Exact UTF-8/LF plain-text downloads
• Keyboard, narrow-screen, bidirectional-label, reduced-motion, forced-colors, named-region, and automated accessibility coverage
• A 320 × 900 Home target that keeps the primary-action bottom no more than 800 px from the viewport top, preserving at least 100 px of headroom without hiding content or shrinking 44 px targets
• No backend, account, database, telemetry, advertising, runtime AI, service worker, local recipe storage, or share payload

The generated instruction surface is English-only. The Japanese page interface does not imply qualified human review of its copy or of the English↔Japanese pair guidance. Read the product limitations before use.

Support labels

Label	Meaning in PhraseGarden
Preview	An exact built-in directed pair pack is versioned, but external linguistic review is incomplete.
Generic	No exact pair pack is selected; only universal, conservative instructions are emitted.
Community, Reviewed, Flagship	Reserved for a later evidence-qualified resolver. Preview 10 cannot assign them.

A user or imported configuration cannot choose or upgrade its tier.

Privacy and local ownership

Runtime settings live only in memory and disappear on refresh. There is no source-text field, microphone access, project cookie, local storage, analytics, or runtime network API. Loading a hosted copy still requests static files from its host, whose infrastructure may retain ordinary request logs. See Privacy.

Architecture

recipe configuration
+ exact language profiles
+ zero or one exact directed pair pack
+ modality recipe and compiler policy
→ canonical prompt + behavior summary + provenance + warnings

• src/domain: pure types, validation, materialization, resolution, compiler
• src/packs: versioned profiles and the English↔Japanese Preview pack
• src/recipes: Written, Voice, Interpreter, policy, and English prompt surface
• src/locales: closed English and Japanese interface, warning, limitation, and summary catalogs
• src/app and src/ui: memory-only Preact presentation and interactions
• tests: deterministic, snapshot, browser, privacy, and accessibility checks

The canonical language identity is one exact registry-pinned BCP 47 tag: LanguageProfile.id === LanguageProfile.bcp47.

Verification

pnpm test
pnpm typecheck
pnpm build
pnpm audit:release
pnpm test:e2e:dist

Browser tests run sequentially and use axe. Local Windows verification uses Microsoft Edge; the prepared Pages workflow uses Playwright Chromium. The core compiler implementation and version remain 0.1.0-preview.1. Interpreter uses versioned recipe 1.0.0, compiler policy 1.1.0, English prompt surface 1.1.0, and English summary catalog 1.3.0. Exact Preview 3 Interpreter regression hashes remain locked in compiler tests. Published byte-qualified sample prompts remain unchanged in samples/0.1.0-preview.1. The public repository inventory is recorded in docs/PUBLICATION-MANIFEST.md; exact local artifact and sample hashes are in SHA256SUMS.

Contributing and governance

Read CONTRIBUTING.md. Formal pair-review governance and support-tier qualification are deliberately deferred. Do not add a reviewer, review outcome, or Reviewed/Flagship claim without independently qualified evidence and a separately approved resolver.
