        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Get project status including plan, limits, languages, and configuration

Pull translations from i1n and generate TypeScript types

Push local translation files to i1n (with diff detection, only changed keys are pushed)

Validate local translation files offline: missing keys per language, broken interpolation placeholders, empty values, and coverage. Returns a JSON report. Safe for CI — no API calls.

Translate to specified languages with AI. Estimates cost, translates, polls for completion, and auto-pulls results.

Add new languages to the project and optionally auto-translate existing keys

Accept extracted strings, push them to i1n, translate to all active languages, and pull updated types. Pass an array of {key, value, namespace?} objects.

Search existing translations by key name, namespace, or source value

Detect any i18n library (i18next, vue-i18n, next-intl, react-intl, etc.) and configure i1n bridge mode in this project — end-to-end, with no terminal needed. Use when the user asks to 'set up / configure the bridge', 'wire up i1n with my existing i18n library', or 'install i1n on top of <library>'. If `i1n.config.json` doesn't exist yet, pass `apiKey` (and optionally `projectId`) and the tool runs init non-interactively (validate, pick project, write config) before wiring the bridge. If `apiKey` is missing, the tool returns status `needs_api_key` so you can ask the user for it. If multiple projects exist, it returns status `multiple_projects` with the list — re-call with the chosen `projectId`. Pass `write=true` to actually write the bridge helper file (do this whenever the user asks to *configure*/*install*; only leave it false if they explicitly asked to *analyze* or *preview*). For libraries outside the known list, the tool still emits a best-effort snippet flagged for verification.
