book-translatorlisted

Translate full-length books (EPUB) to Traditional Chinese (Taiwan) with literary tone fidelity and cross-chapter coherence, preserving EPUB structure. Use when the user says "翻書", "翻電子書", "翻譯整本書", "book translate", "bilingual epub", or gives an .epub expecting literary translation. Main session extracts an OPF spine manifest plus a per-book glossary and style anchor, then dispatches parallel subagents (each gets glossary, style anchor, and last-paragraph carryover for coherence); the first item is previewed for tone confirmation before fanning out the rest. Produces a bilingual .epub (source + translation interleaved) with manifest/glossary/state for resume. Differs from translate-book (generic PDF/DOCX/EPUB, single-language, no coherence): book-translator targets literary works, uses Opus for the style-anchor pass and Sonnet for the parallel fan-out, and gates quality before shipping. Not for short articles (use polish) or SRT subtitles (use srt).
