T3 Code only ships in English. This adds a Language setting under Settings > General > Display (System default, English, Español, 中文（简体）) built on gt-react. Switching is live with no reload, sets <html lang>, and persists as a client setting. Strings without a translation fall back to English. The setting defaults to English; System default follows the browser or OS language.

Settings General in English with the new Language row set to English by default

Language select open showing System default, English, Español and 中文（简体）

Settings General in Español: nav, Confirmaciones and Pantalla translated, selects not truncated

Settings General in Español with the breadcrumb reading Ajustes / General

Settings General in Simplified Chinese: nav, 确认 and 显示 translated

Switching English, Español, 中文 and back to English live without a reload

language is an open string in ClientSettingsSchema (default "en"), so adding a locale later is not a contract change and unknown values survive a downgrade. The saved setting is the only source of truth; GT's own locale setters write it. Translations are committed JSON in apps/web/src/i18n/translations/, loaded with a lazy import() per locale (3.6 kB each), so forks and offline installs never hit GT's CDN. English loads no chunk. vp run i18n:generate refreshes the source strings without credentials; vp run i18n:translate needs GT_API_KEY and GT_PROJECT_ID. The es/zh strings in this PR were written by hand into that format and can be regenerated. Maria reviewed the Spanish strings.

This first slice covers the settings nav, the settings breadcrumb, and the General panel. The rest of the app, NotificationSettings, the "Restore device defaults" button, settings search matching, and mobile (gt-react-native) are follow-ups.

Cost: gt-react adds 35.7 kB gzip (109 kB raw) to the startup closure, 9.5 kB gzip of it in the main chunk and the rest in the existing settingsSearch startup chunk. No vite or chunking config changed. The packages/contracts change needs Theo or Julius.

Verified in the dev web app: live switching, persistence across reload, System default following navigator.languages, and no console errors while switching. vp run check:changed passes. Unverified: desktop (Electron) and CJK rendering with a real OS font (the headless browser needed Noto Sans SC injected).

Walkthrough

The web app adds English, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese localization. It stores a language preference, loads translations during startup, and translates settings panels, navigation, and search labels.

Changes: Web internationalization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Locale preference and translation runtime `apps/web/gt.config.json`, `apps/web/package.json`, `apps/web/tsconfig.json`, `packages/contracts/src/settings.ts`, `apps/web/src/i18n/locales.ts`, `apps/web/src/i18n/initializeI18n.ts`, `apps/web/src/i18n/runtime.ts`	Adds locale configuration and translation tooling. The settings contract stores a language value. Locale utilities resolve saved and system languages, and the runtime loads translations and publishes locale snapshots.
Application startup and provider wiring `apps/web/src/i18n/I18nProvider.tsx`, `apps/web/src/AppRoot.tsx`, `apps/web/src/appInit.tsx`, `apps/web/src/main.tsx`, `apps/web/test/browserSetup.ts`	Starts i18n during application initialization, provides locale state to the React tree, and includes locale readiness in startup completion. Browser test setup initializes GT.
Translated settings and language selection `apps/web/src/components/settings/SettingsPanels.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/settings/SettingsSidebarNav.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/settings/settingsSearch.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/settings/SettingsBreadcrumb.tsx`, `apps/web/src/i18n/translations/*`	Translates settings panels, navigation, breadcrumbs, and search labels. Adds a language selector and translations for English, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Translate search result titles before rendering them.

After a user selects Spanish or Chinese, the sidebar translates each result’s section at Line 361 but still displays item.title in English here. For example, the new Language row shows “Idioma” in General settings while its search result shows “Language”. Render m(item.title) here; keep the source title available for English search. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

As per coding guidelines, “Hit every surface” requires checking the other surfaces of a frontend change.

Fixed in 60eb86611f: the result title renders m(item.title). item.title stays the English source, so search matching is unchanged.

CcoderabbitaiBot6d ago

@maria-rcks The supplied code now renders m(item.title) for search result titles. This addresses the finding without changing the source title used for English search matching.

Do not cache a failed locale as an empty translation set.

getTranslationsSnapshot already converts a loader failure into {}, so startup does not receive a rejection. The current loaded[locale] ?? {} assignment nevertheless marks that failed locale as loaded. Later requests then skip getTranslationsSnapshot, so the locale cannot retry after the chunk becomes available.

Fixed in 60eb86611f: getTranslationsSnapshot returns {} on a failed load instead of rejecting. A missing entry is no longer cached, and pendingLoads clears either way, so the next request retries.

CcoderabbitaiBot6d ago

@maria-rcks Thanks for fixing this in 60eb86611f. The change you described addresses the finding: missing translations remain uncached, and clearing pendingLoads lets a later request retry.

Do not match Traditional Chinese to the Simplified Chinese locale.

When the host reports zh-TW or zh-Hant, matchSupportedLocale strips the region or script and selects zh. System default then displays Simplified Chinese, even if a later host language has a matching translation. Check the script and region before applying the zh fallback; continue through the host-language list when only Traditional Chinese is requested. (unicode.org)

@maria-rcks Verified by source inspection. The matcher preserves exact matches and blocks Traditional Chinese fallback to Simplified Chinese. The host-language scan continues, and the reported examples match the code. I did not run tests.

5	Learning: Within repository "pingdotgg/t3code", only for files matching one of ["apps/web/src/i18n/locales.ts"]: When reviewing locale matching in apps/web/src/i18n/locales.ts, treat the supported zh locale as Simplified Chinese. For Traditional Chinese tags zh-TW, zh-HK, zh-MO, and zh-Hant variants, preserve exact supported-locale matches but do not fall back to zh. If no exact match exists, continue scanning the host-language list before using the default locale. Preserve Simplified Chinese fallback for zh-CN and zh-Hans.

🟡 Medium i18n/runtime.ts:40

After a failed translation load, a later successful retry leaves the active locale untranslated: activateLocale returns because snapshot.locale === locale, so it never publishes the newly loaded catalog or notifies listeners.

Fixed in ce8d5e7b3f. Confirmed in gt-i18n: ReactI18nCache.loadTranslations wraps the load in guardAsync({}), so a failure arrives as { [locale]: {} }. Empty catalogs are no longer cached. gt's own cache skips set on a rejected load, so the next request really refetches.

Publish translations after a successful retry.

If the initial load fails, the locale becomes active without translations. If a later retry succeeds, this line caches the translations, but activateLocale skips publication because the locale is already active. The UI can remain in English until the user switches locales. Publish a new snapshot when translations arrive, even when the locale is unchanged.

Publish the locale catalog on the whenLocaleReady() retry path.

whenLocaleReady() loads the requested locale but does not call activateLocale(). If the startup load fails and the retry succeeds through this path, loadedTranslations receives the catalog. snapshot keeps the fallback state until the next client settings change.

Suggested fix

diff

1	export function whenLocaleReady(): Promise<void> {
2	- return loadLocale(requestedLocale);
3	+ const locale = requestedLocale;
4	+ return loadLocale(locale).then(() => activateLocale(locale));
5	}

Add a runtime test for this state logic. It should fail the first load, succeed on the retry, and assert that getI18nSnapshot() contains the loaded catalog after whenLocaleReady(). The current test setup does not cover this path.

Note

Written by claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Maria

Fixed in e01d345304: whenLocaleReady now activates the locale after its load, so a catalog loaded on that path is published. For English it is a no-op, since the snapshot already holds the same catalog. Skipping the new runtime test for this PR: new test files need maintainer sign-off here, and the fix is a two-line ordering change.

@maria-rcks Verified the fix in e01d345304. whenLocaleReady() now publishes the loaded catalog through activateLocale(). The existing guards prevent stale locale activation and redundant snapshot updates.

Understood on skipping the new runtime test for this PR. Source inspection confirms the fix; I did not run the failure-and-retry scenario. The test omission remains a maintainer decision.

Thanks for picking this up! I'm a native Simplified Chinese speaker and maintain a zh-CN fork of T3 Code (deepfry666/t3code-cn: about 9,800 translated web/desktop strings, used daily). Since this first slice sets the vocabulary later slices will copy, a few notes on the zh strings:

Terms worth deciding now

English	This PR	Suggestion	Why
thread	线程	会话	In a developer tool 线程 reads as an OS/process thread. 会话 ("conversation/session") is what Chinese users of chat-style AI apps expect.
agent	代理	智能体	代理 is the everyday word for a network proxy, which T3 also has settings for. 智能体 is the standard Chinese term for an AI agent.
Working section	Working 分区	运行中分组	Half-English label; the section can be translated with the sidebar.
Labs	Labs	实验功能	Every other nav item is translated, so this one stands out.

Smaller ones, mostly about consistency

Secrets: 密钥 means "keys"; 凭据 ("credentials") also covers passwords and tokens.
Source control: 源代码管理 and 版本控制 both work. Whichever you pick, use it everywhere a hint says "Open Settings → …", so users can find the page.
Scheduled tasks: 计划任务 is the Windows Task Scheduler term; 定时任务 is more common for cron-style jobs and avoids clashing with an agent's "plan" (计划).
Timestamp format: 时间格式 reads more naturally than 时间戳格式 in a user-facing setting.

Worth keeping in English (Chinese developers say them as-is): PR / pull request, token, issue, Finder, CLI / MCP / SSH, product names. In short labels like nav items, "PR" reads better than "pull request".

Happy to review the zh strings in later slices or share the fork's glossary. I've also offered in #6789 to help with Chinese, if that would be useful.
