adapto-translate

# adapto:translate Translates existing content into another **already-enabled** language, linked to the source via `translation_of_id`. A **structural-parity gate** prevents broken translations (lost paragraphs, dropped markup/media, mangled placeholders). Works **single-item** or across a **corpus**. > **Model tier (hard rule):** the translation step runs at the **top tier (Opus-class)** — lower tiers > silently destroy meaning (§7 / [sub-agents.md](../../shared/sub-agents.md)). If the current session/sub-agent > can't run at the top tier, **warn and stop**; never translate at a lower tier. ## When to use - "Translate this article/page into `<lang>`", "localize my site into `<lang>`", "translate the blog corpus". - After source content exists (e.g. from `adapto:content-seed`) and the target language is enabled on the tenant. ## When not to use - Adding/enabling a **new** language — that's `adapto project update --languages` (a project setting, and a replace-not-append one — conventions §5), not this skill. Translate only into already-enabled codes. - Creating source content → `adapto:content-seed`. - Just checking the environment → `adapto:doctor`. ## Inputs - **Source item(s)** by id or slug (`get` / `get-by-slug` / `list`). - **Source + target language.** The target **must be enabled on the tenant** — discover via `adapto auth orgs --json`; an unsupported target → stop and offer to enable it as a **separate, confirmed step** (`adapto project update --languages <...
