What does it check in a translation?

Whether the target string preserves meaning, terminology, tone, and placeholders, returning a Noul for each so a failing dimension can block a release on its own rather than one blended score.

How does it handle a resource file?

It diffs a source and target locale file, pairs each key, and sends the changed pairs as batched questions, so a release only pays for the strings that actually moved.

Does it replace a human linguist?

No. It is a pre-review gate that flags the strings most likely to be wrong so reviewers spend their time on those, and the README is explicit that placeholders and length are checked in code.

Can it be tuned to one glossary?

Yes. A per-locale glossary is passed as structured criteria, and the terminology question only fires for strings that contain a glossary term, keeping the extra judgment off the rest.

What languages are covered?

The gate is language-agnostic because it compares a source and target pair, but the README warns that low-resource pairs need their own evaluation before the thresholds transfer.

What does it need to run?

Python 3.11 or newer, a TypeSafe API key, and a pair of locale files in JSON or PO format. A CI recipe runs it on changed keys only and fails the build on a hard mismatch.

Translation QA Gate

A localization pre-review gate that pairs source and target strings and judges meaning, terminology, tone, and placeholders as separate questions, so one failing dimension blocks a release without blending scores.

Highlights

Judges meaning, terminology, tone, and placeholders as separate Nouls instead of one score.
Diffs source and target locale files so a release pays only for the strings that changed.
Fires the glossary question only for strings that contain a glossary term.
Checks placeholders and length in code, leaving the language judgment to the model.

Watch out

A pre-review gate rather than a replacement for a linguist; the README warns that low-resource language pairs need their own evaluation before thresholds transfer.
