Translation
Multilingual translation for AI agents — 200+ languages, language detection, batch translation, and human-verified translation memory. Zero config, free, no API keys.
What this skill teaches
A reusable playbook for a specific kind of work.
An MCP server tells an agent which actions are available. A skill adds the judgment around those actions: how to recognize the job, which sequence to follow, what to avoid, and how to decide that the result is complete.
Orchestrate translation operations — translate text between 200+ languages, detect languages, batch translate into multiple targets, and search human-verified translation memory. Use when translating content, detecting what language text is in, translating into multiple languages at once, or finding verified…
Architecture
How Translation guides an ADK-Rust agent.
The skill stays readable and portable because it contains instructions rather than service credentials or business data. ADK-Rust supplies it to the agent, the agent chooses from its reviewed tool boundary, and the connected MCP server performs the authenticated operation.
01
User request
The agent receives a goal expressed in ordinary language.
02
Translation skill
Matches intent, supplies the decision guide, and narrows the tool boundary.
03
ADK-Rust agent
Plans the workflow and streams each meaningful step through the runtime.
04
mcp-translate
Executes authenticated operations against the system that owns the capability.
05
Verified result
The skill's completion rules shape the evidence returned to the user.
Decision guide
How the agent turns a request into the right action.
These routes come directly from the skill instructions. They help the model recognize intent and select a focused tool or workflow instead of improvising across the entire capability surface.

Proven workflows
Repeatable sequences for useful outcomes.
A workflow joins several tool calls into a task the user actually recognizes. The skill explains the sequence and the intended result while ADK-Rust streams the agent's progress through the shared runtime.
011-2 calls
Translate
Detect source → translate with quality score
021 calls
Batch
Translate to multiple languages at once
031 calls
Verify
Find human-verified translations
041 calls
Detect
Identify unknown language
Tool boundary
The skill may use 5 documented tools.
This allowlist is declared by the skill. It keeps the agent focused on the actions needed for this job while mcp-translate retains responsibility for authentication, validation, and the connected system.

Working rules
What the agent should do.
- Detect language first if source is unknown (don't assume English)
- Include quality/confidence score in response
- Use search_translation_memory for critical content (human-verified)
- For batch: specify all target languages in one call (efficient)
Operating boundaries
What the agent should avoid.
- Don't assume source language is English
- Don't present low-confidence translations without warning
- Don't translate sensitive/legal content without flagging it needs human review
Install and connect
Add the skill beside the capability it expects.
Install the repository where your ADK-Rust skill loader can discover it, connect mcp-translate, and confirm the declared tools are available before asking the agent to use the workflow.
