How does it handle large documentation sets?

It uses background task distribution with parallel execution (up to 5 tasks at once) and incremental hash checking to only translate new or changed files.

Can it translate text inside images?

Yes, it integrates with doc-smith-images using Gemini or AFS backends to translate text within screenshots and diagrams, syncing them to the final distribution folder.

How do I add a new language to my documentation site?

Simply use the /doc-smith-localize --lang command. The skill will handle translation, configuration updates, and navigation rebuilding automatically.

Does it support Markdown translation?

No, it translates directly at the HTML level to ensure the final output preserves exact layout and structural metadata without Markdown-to-HTML conversion errors.

What happens if a specific page fails to translate?

The skill tracks status for every document. If a task fails, it reports the error in a final summary without overwriting existing files or breaking the site build.
