Where are the localization keys saved?

The skill writes new keys directly to the Localizable.strings files located in the LeavnApp/Sources/Resources/ folder for each supported language.

How does the skill refactor Swift code?

It identifies hardcoded Text("String") instances and replaces them with the pattern Text(I18n.str("key.path", default: "String")).

Can this skill be used for React Native or Flutter?

This specific skill is optimized for Swift and iOS directory structures, specifically focusing on the Leavn app pattern.

Which languages does the Localization Helper support?

It currently supports English (en), Spanish (es), German (de), Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans), Arabic (ar), and Hebrew (he).

Does it automatically translate the strings?

Yes, utilizing Claude's capabilities, it can generate the appropriate localized values for the keys it adds to the .strings files.
