Can I use Translate Skill with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 7.2/10
Tested: Jul 29, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Jul 30, 2026 · 6b7b5d1

⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 29, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Tested against the repo's own shipped Chinese README as ground truth: the skill's preserve-list correctly kept /plugin install, --plugin-dir and the literal `git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey)` error string in English, where the no-skill pass translated the error message into Chinese. Its one automated rule is stale, though — it hardcodes replacing `mattpocock/skills` with `vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN`, and neither string exists in the repo that ships it (that repo localizes addyosmani/agent-skills), so all three install paths in the test block came out still pointing at the upstream English repo while the maintainer's real translation had swapped them. The mandated review report does surface the mismatch as a failed invariant instead of shipping it silently. Usable, but you must edit the repo pair by hand before the headline rule does anything.

What Translate Skill does

A localization procedure for translating skill files, READMEs and docs into Simplified Chinese without corrupting the parts that agents execute. It defines an explicit preserve-list (commands, flags, paths, frontmatter keys, identifiers), a fail-closed rule for ambiguous spans, and a mandatory review report with invariant checks. Triggers when you ask to translate, refresh or review a Chinese localization of an agent-skills repository.

How to install Translate Skill

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.
