+Console chrome reaches the bundle — the list switcher, the aggregate footer, the dialog a11y fallbacks and the whole Settings namespace screen stop being English on non-English consoles
+
+Six strings on the two screens a user looks at most were hardcoded English literals rather than bundle lookups, so they stayed English on every non-English console with nothing an app could author to change them. They are not object, field, view or action labels — no key in `TranslationData` reaches them — while the console's own bundle already ships zh-CN, ja-JP, es-ES, de, fr, pt, ru, ko and ar and translates hundreds of neighbouring strings. Omissions from an otherwise complete bundle, not a missing capability.
+
+**Two of the six needed no new keys at all, which is the more interesting half.** The list-view mode switcher named its nine visualizations from a private `VIEW_LABELS` table while `console.objectView.viewType*` — the same nine words — had been resolved through the bundle by the create-view picker for months; the switcher now reads those keys, so the picker's 「画廊」 and the switcher's 「画廊」 cannot drift apart in nine languages. The create/edit dialog's close button is the remainder of a fix that already landed: objectstack#5505 routed the `sr-only` close label through `common.close` for the two Shadcn-synced primitives, but `MobileDialogContent` is a hand-written wrapper outside that regeneration zone with its own close button, and it is exactly what `ModalForm` renders — so the dialog the report measured was the one place still announcing "Close" in English.
+
+The aggregate footer is the one the original report singled out: the **number** was already locale-formatted and the **prefix** was a hardcoded `Avg: ` / `Sum: `. All eleven aggregation kinds now take their prefix from `grid.summary.*`, and the label/value join is its own key rather than a `': '` baked into the renderer — the separator is translatable content, so zh sets a fullwidth colon and fr the French space-before-colon. The numbers are untouched. The form dialog's `sr-only` description fallback joins the packs too; it is clipped, not visible, so the only way an app could displace it was to author a `description` and thereby put a visible subtitle on every dialog.
+
+**The Settings namespace screen converts as one unit.** `SettingsView` routed zero framing copy through i18n — save/failure toasts, the env-lock and crypto refusals, the load-error card, the empty-route state, the navigation buttons, the unsaved-changes save bar — while its immediate sibling `SettingsHub`, in the same directory, resolved everything through `t('console.settingsHub.*')`. A zh-CN admin read correctly translated field labels sitting inside an English save bar, because `useSettingsLabel` translates a namespace's authored content but reaches none of the chrome around it. All of it now resolves through a `console.settingsView.*` namespace placed beside the hub's, including the crypto-refusal strings that objectui#4579 deliberately left in English rather than leave one translated string among a dozen literals.
+
+The save-bar counter was an English plural rule executing in every locale (`change` plus an `s` when the count exceeds one). It is now a real i18next plural family — base key plus `_one` and `_other` in all ten packs — not the `(s)` spelling translated nine ways. The base key is the load-bearing part: i18next asks `Intl.PluralRules` for the one suffix a language needs and, finding no such slot, falls back to English, so without it Russian would read English at counts 2-20 and Arabic at 2-99. Russian and Arabic take the "noun: {count}" form their packs already use for this exact reason, and the counter is verified rendering in-language at 1, 2 and 5.
+
+The Beta badge reuses the hub's existing key rather than minting a twin, and the refusal messages interpolate their subject through the bundle instead of concatenating a translated word onto an English prefix.

+/**
+ * `SettingsView`'s framing copy speaks the session locale — objectui#4024,
+ * the SettingsView unit recorded in the card's comment.
+ *
+ * ## Why this screen is one item rather than nine
+ *
+ * Its immediate sibling already does the right thing. `SettingsHub.tsx`, in the
+ * same directory, resolves through `t('console.settingsHub.*')` against the same
+ * bundle that ships all ten packs. So this was never a missing capability or an
+ * unwired screen — it was one file written against a different convention than
+ * the file next to it, and converting it half-way would have left a single
+ * translated string among a dozen hardcoded ones. `useSettingsLabel` already
+ * translates the manifest-authored CONTENT (title, description, field labels),
+ * so a zh-CN admin saw translated field labels sitting inside an English save
+ * bar, with no key a plugin author could reach.
+ *
+ * The convention matched is therefore the sibling's, exactly: `useObjectTranslation`
+ * from `@object-ui/i18n` + a `console.settingsView.*` namespace placed beside
+ * `console.settingsHub.*` in every pack.
+ *
+ * ## The save-bar counter goes through i18next's real PLURAL mechanism
+ *
+ * `{dirtyKeys.length} unsaved change{dirtyKeys.length > 1 ? 's' : ''}` is an
+ * ENGLISH plural rule executing in every locale. Translating it as
+ * "N unsaved change(s)" would only translate the defect, so the counter is a
+ * plural family: base + `_one` + `_other`, in all ten packs.
+ *
+ * The base key is load-bearing and is not decoration. i18next asks
+ * `Intl.PluralRules` for the ONE suffix a language needs for that number and,
+ * finding no such slot, walks `fallbackLng` to `en`. `ru` has four categories
+ * (one/few/many/other) and `ar` six; no pack in this repo enumerates
+ * `_few`/`_many`/`_two`/`_zero`, so without a base key `ru` renders ENGLISH at
+ * counts 2-20. That is not hypothetical — it is objectui#3863, measured on
+ * `detail.showEmptyRelated`, and `all-locales-key-parity.test.ts` owns the rule
+ * that came out of it. The `ru` cases below at counts 1/2/5 are what prove the
+ * mechanism actually reaches a plural-rich pack rather than merely type-checking.
+ *
+ * The alternative convention in this repo — two sibling keys `xxxCount` /
+ * `xxxCountOne` (`common.itemCount`, `collaboration.commentCount`) — was
+ * deliberately NOT used: its stated rationale is a parity fear that objectui#3863's
+ * base-key fix has since answered, and it hard-codes a two-form (English-shaped)
+ * split that `ru` and `ar` do not have.
+ *
+ * ## The #4514 provider-less trap, and what was decided per test
+ *
+ * The existing settings suites mount no `I18nProvider` and assert raw English;
+ * `t()` outside a provider returns the KEY. This file mounts a provider in every
+ * case, because interpolation is the thing under test: with no provider,
+ * `t('console.settingsView.lockedByEnv', { key })` returns the bare key and the
+ * `{{key}}` hole is never filled, so a provider-less assertion could not tell a
+ * working interpolation from a broken one. The sibling suites' own disposition
+ * is recorded in their headers.
+ *
+ * ## Red-first prediction (written BEFORE the first run)
+ *
+ * Pre-fix, on `origin/main`: 7 failed, 2 passed.
+ *   - every zh/ru case FAILS — the component renders the English literal, so
+ *     `findByText('全部设置')` and friends match nothing;
+ *   - the `en` framing cases (`All settings`, `Save changes`) PASS pre-fix —
+ *     the literal equals the value the pack is about to gain, which is exactly
+ *     why nothing caught this.
+ *
+ * ONE PREDICTION IN THIS FILE WAS WRONG, and it is recorded rather than
+ * quietly corrected. The header first claimed the counter cases would go red in
+ * BOTH languages including `en`, on the reasoning that the bundle has no
+ * `console.settingsView.unsavedCount` yet. The `en` counter case PASSED pre-fix
+ * — because the concatenation it replaces (`change{n > 1 ? 's' : ''}`) IS the
+ * English plural rule, so English is precisely the one language whose output
+ * cannot change. That is the defect stated exactly: the screen was correct in
+ * English and could not be correct anywhere else. The `en` counter case is
+ * therefore a must-not-change pin, and `ru`/`zh` carry the evidence.

+/**
+ * `MobileDialogContent`'s close button speaks the session locale —
+ * objectui#4024, closing the gap objectstack#5505 left open.
+ *
+ * ## This is a REMAINDER, not a fresh bug — and the difference matters
+ *
+ * objectstack#5505 already fixed this class: `CloseSrLabel` (`../lib/close-label`)
+ * resolves `common.close`, and `sheet-dialog-close-i18n.test.tsx` pins it for
+ * `SheetContent` and `DialogContent`. But #5505 patched the two SHADCN-SYNCED
+ * primitives under `src/ui/**`, reached by the declared patch in
+ * `scripts/shadcn-local-patches.mjs`. `custom/mobile-dialog-content.tsx` is not
+ * in that regeneration zone and carries its own hand-written close button, so
+ * it kept a hardcoded `< span className="sr-only" >Close< /span >` and no test
+ * looked at it.
+ *
+ * That is exactly the string the card reports. `MobileDialogContent` is what
+ * `plugin-form`'s `ModalForm` renders (`ModalForm.tsx:834`), so on a zh-CN
+ * console the create/edit dialog — one of the two screens the card names — is
+ * precisely where an English "Close" was still being announced. The triage seat
+ * on objectstack#5084 warned that this family was partly landed and told the
+ * implementer to reconcile with the landed fixes and "只补余量"; this file is
+ * the余量, measured rather than assumed.
+ *
+ * ## Assertions are accessible-name queries
+ *
+ * The button is icon-only (a lucide `X`), so the `sr-only` span IS its
+ * accessible name — the thing assistive tech announces and the thing
+ * `getByRole('button', { name })` matches. A `getByText` would pass on
+ * decoration.
+ *
+ * ## Red-first prediction (written BEFORE the first run)
+ *
+ * Pre-fix, on `origin/main`:
+ *   - every non-English case FAILS — the literal renders, so the button is
+ *     named "Close" in every locale and `{ name: '关闭' }` matches nothing.
+ *     The `queryByRole({ name: 'Close' })` negative assertions fail in the
+ *     other direction on the very same render, which is the bug stated twice;
+ *   - the en case PASSES pre-fix — the literal equals the `en` pack value.

+ *
+ * That is exactly why an app cannot work around it. The only way to displace

+/**
+ * The list/grid aggregate footer's PREFIX speaks the session locale —
+ * objectui#4024 (migrated from objectstack#5084).
+ *
+ * The card's sharpest observation is that this footer was already half fixed:
+ * `Avg: 39%` and `Sum: 119,200` have a correctly locale-formatted NUMBER sitting
+ * behind a hardcoded English `TYPE_LABELS` prefix. The aggregate kind is known
+ * to the renderer, so the prefix was one bundle lookup away.
+ *
+ * ## The number formatting is NOT this card's surface
+ *
+ * `#4589` landed the number-display policy in `packages/core/src/utils/**`, and
+ * the currency/percent/decimal behaviour here is pinned by the sibling
+ * `useColumnSummary.test.tsx`. This change touches the PREFIX and the
+ * label/value JOIN only; every numeric assertion below is a must-not-change,
+ * restated here so a prefix change that disturbed a number would go red in the
+ * same file that claims the prefix.
+ *
+ * ## Why a parameterized pattern rather than a translated prefix + `': '`
+ *
+ * Concatenating a translated word with a hardcoded `': '` hands the locale the
+ * word and keeps the punctuation in English. ja/zh use a fullwidth colon, and
+ * ar runs right-to-left, so the separator is translatable content. The join is
+ * therefore its own key — `grid.summary.pattern: '{{label}}: {{value}}'` — and
+ * a pack that wants 「合计:119,200」 owns the whole shape. This mirrors the
+ * `collaboration.resolvedSuffix` note already in `en.ts`: "Appended to the
+ * count, separator included, so a translator owns the whole phrase rather than
+ * inheriting an English-shaped ` · ` glue."
+ *
+ * ## Red-first prediction (written BEFORE the first run)
+ *
+ * Pre-fix, on `origin/main`:
+ *   - every zh case FAILS — `TYPE_LABELS[type]` returns the English 'Sum' /
+ *     'Avg' / 'Count' and `formatSummaryLabel` joins with a literal ': ', so
+ *     the label is 'Sum: 1,234' and the expected '合计' is absent;
+ *   - the en cases and the must-not-change numeric cases PASS pre-fix (the
+ *     English literal equals the `en` pack value — the same blindness the
+ *     switcher has).

+/**
+ * The switcher's provider-less fallback stays ENGLISH — objectui#4024, and the
+ * #4514 trap this card was warned about.
+ *
+ * Wiring `VIEW_LABELS` through the bundle is only safe because
+ * `createSafeTranslation` keeps a provider-less host rendering English rather
+ * than a raw `console.objectView.viewTypeGrid`. A large amount of existing
+ * coverage addresses these controls by their English name with no
+ * `I18nProvider` mounted (`packages/plugin-list/src/__tests__/ListView.test.tsx`
+ * among them), so this is a hard constraint, not a nicety.
+ *
+ * ## Why this is a separate FILE and not another `it` next door
+ *
+ * `createI18n` registers its instance as react-i18next's module-global default
+ * and that registration survives unmount and `cleanup()`. A no-provider render
+ * sharing a file with locale-mounted renders resolves against whichever locale
+ * ran last — measured, and recorded on
+ * `packages/components/src/__tests__/sheet-dialog-close-i18n.test.tsx`
+ * (objectstack#5505/#5506), where the fallback case failed naming a button
+ * "Cerrar" under a test that mounted no provider at all.
+ *
+ * ## Red-first prediction (written BEFORE the first run)
+ *
+ * PASSES both before and after the fix — this is a must-not-change pin, not
+ * evidence of the change. It goes red only if the fix reaches for
+ * `useObjectTranslation` directly instead of the safe factory.

+/**
+ * The list-view mode switcher speaks the session locale — objectui#4024
+ * (migrated from objectstack#5084).
+ *
+ * `ViewSwitcher.tsx` carried `VIEW_LABELS`, a hardcoded English
+ * `Record<ViewType, string>` used three ways per button: the visible span, the
+ * `aria-label`, and the `title`. So on a zh-CN console the switcher read
+ * "Grid" / "Gallery" beside a fully translated toolbar, and there was nothing
+ * an app could author to reach it.
+ *
+ * ## No new keys — this was a wiring gap, not a missing capability
+ *
+ * `console.objectView.viewType{Grid,Kanban,Gallery,…}` already exists in all
+ * ten packs and already carries exactly these words: the create-view picker
+ * (`packages/app-shell/src/views/CreateViewDialog.tsx:88-96`) has resolved them
+ * through the bundle for months. The switcher naming the same nine
+ * visualizations with a private English copy is the drift; reusing the pack's
+ * key is what keeps the picker's 「画廊」 and the switcher's 「画廊」 the same
+ * word in nine languages. The triage seat on objectstack#5084 predicted this
+ * ("i18n 包已有 `viewTypeGrid`/`viewTypeGallery` 词条,疑似未接线") and it holds.
+ *
+ * A plugin package reading a `console.*` key has precedent in this repo, in
+ * this very namespace: `packages/plugin-view/src/ObjectView.tsx:83` resolves
+ * `console.objectView.new`.
+ *
+ * ## Red-first prediction (written BEFORE the first run)
+ *
+ * Pre-fix, on `origin/main`:
+ *   - the two zh cases FAIL — the component renders the English literal
+ *     'Grid' / 'Gallery' from `VIEW_LABELS`, never consulting the bundle, so
+ *     `getByRole('tab', { name: '表格' })` finds nothing;
+ *   - the en case and the no-provider case PASS — the English literal happens
+ *     to equal the `en` pack value, which is precisely why nothing caught this.
+ *
+ * That asymmetry is the point: only the translated assertion can go red here,
+ * so the English one is kept as the must-not-change half rather than as
+ * evidence of the fix.
