Owner

The public site now publishes English only. Component titles and descriptions use stable keys in messages/en.json, and English is the only catalog that needs routine maintenance. The other 21 catalogs and localization infrastructure remain saved as inactive drafts.

Saved-language URLs redirect to the corresponding English page while preserving query parameters and anchors. The language selector and inactive-language SEO alternates are hidden, and static generation drops from 6,700 to 316 pages. Consumer Payload localization remains available.

Automatic Crowdin synchronization is paused. Manual dispatch and strict, loss-resistant export validation remain available, but enabling another public language requires a verified no-cost automated workflow and native review. This change requires no paid provider and creates no manual translation-maintenance commitment. English validation checks nonempty messages and valid ICU independently of archived drafts; --drafts opts into checking those catalogs.

This PR also retains the release fixes already reviewed here: explicit same-version CLI updates reconcile install state and run generators after replacing source; known legacy localization helpers migrate only with explicit policy acceptance for all remaining owners; customized helpers remain untouched, even with --force. Sparse Crowdin exports cannot erase saved translations or replace them with English. The destructive export in #556 is closed.

Includes #555 plus the docs from #551. The combined candidate in #558 now incorporates this entire branch and the new components. Merge and verify #558 in dev, then close this PR as incorporated.

Validation

  • English-only production build, lint, formatting, TypeScript, registry reproducibility/schema checks, and English ICU validation passed.
  • All 712 integration tests passed across the full run and one isolated rerun; one existing environment-dependent test remains skipped. The rerun addressed a contact-sheet rendering timeout under local load.
  • All 145 focused frontend checks passed, including saved-language redirects, query/anchor preservation, and hidden language controls. macOS and Linux landing screenshots are updated.
  • The migration regression verifies every accepted owner's source is updated before generators run, records recoverable partial baselines, and successfully resumes a failed generator without --force.
  • All four fresh Payload consumer shards, Node 20 compatibility, and quick checks passed on 257e1346. The full release gate passed on that exact head, and all 625 local production-browser checks passed.

Summary:
- upgrade fast-uri beyond the four high-severity advisories
- suppress analytics and consent chrome on localized preview routes
- align scaffold documentation with managed-file lifecycle behavior
- add localized preview regression coverage

Rationale:
- keep the dev-to-main promotion secure and prevent duplicate analytics
- make the documented overwrite contract match actual CLI behavior

Tests:
- pnpm test:release
- pnpm audit --prod --audit-level high

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR centralizes site and component copy in translation catalogs, limits public routing to published locales, and adds validated Crowdin synchronization. It also adds locale-aware preview handling, localization-helper migration support, documentation, tests, workflow changes, and a fast-uri override update.

Changes

Site translation and Crowdin pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Catalog source and localized rendering
messages/en.json, messages/locales/*, src/lib/site.ts, src/lib/component-catalog.ts, src/app/[locale]/components/page.tsx, src/components/site/ComponentCard.tsx, src/i18n/message-catalog.ts
Site and component copy now uses message catalogs. Component metadata is added for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean catalogs.
Published-locale routing and fallback
src/i18n/config.ts, src/app/[locale]/layout.tsx, src/app/locale/route.ts, src/proxy.ts, src/i18n/*, src/lib/i18n.ts, src/components/site/LanguageSwitcher.tsx, tools/i18n/*
Routing, locale selection, fallback behavior, and catalog checks now use the published locale set.
Locale-aware preview path handling
src/i18n/config.ts, src/components/site/AnalyticsShell.tsx, src/components/site/ConsentBanner.tsx, tests/int/site-i18n.int.spec.ts, tests/e2e/templates.e2e.spec.ts
A shared helper detects localized chrome-free preview paths. Analytics and consent behavior use the helper.
Crowdin merge and regression validation
tools/i18n/translation-regressions.ts, tools/i18n/merge-crowdin.ts, tools/i18n/check.ts, tools/i18n/catalog.ts, tools/i18n/sync-crowdin.ts, tests/int/crowdin-sync.int.spec.ts
Crowdin exports preserve existing translations, reject unsafe structures and regressions, and validate before writing locale files.
Crowdin workflow and verification publication
.github/workflows/crowdin.yml, .github/workflows/registry-verification.yml, tools/i18n/publish-crowdin.sh, messages/README.md, AGENTS.md
The workflow is manual-only and separates upload, download, merge, validation, artifact upload, draft PR publication, and registry verification.
Frontend and visual workflow validation
tests/e2e/frontend.e2e.spec.ts, tests/e2e/templates.e2e.spec.ts, tests/int/site-i18n.int.spec.ts, .github/workflows/visual-baselines.yml, tests/int/release-gate.int.spec.ts
Tests cover inactive-locale redirects, published-locale behavior, localized preview analytics, and the frontend visual-baseline option.

Payload component localization migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Localization helper preparation and commit contract
tools/payload-components/localization-helper.ts, tools/payload-components/component-files.ts
The localization helper validates installed content and returns safe changes. Component replacement can commit additional helper changes in the same batch.
Command integration for helper installation and migration
tools/payload-components/commands/add.ts, tools/payload-components/commands/localize.ts, tools/payload-components/commands/update.ts
Commands prepare the helper before localized file changes and replace direct shared-file copying with helper-specific operations.
Localization migration behavior and validation
tests/int/payload-components-localization-upgrade.int.spec.ts, tests/int/payload-components-add-command.int.spec.ts, tests/int/fixtures/localize-fields-legacy.ts.txt, content/docs/localization.mdx
Tests cover migration, idempotence, edited-helper protection, multi-owner handling, and legacy field localization. Documentation describes the migration behavior.

Documentation and package maintenance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Documentation and package updates
content/docs/cli.mdx, content/docs/localization.mdx, AGENTS.md, messages/README.md, package.json
Documentation describes managed scaffold files, localization-helper migration, translation publication rules, and generation behavior. The fast-uri override changes from 3.1.5 to 3.1.7.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4d861

The localization update centralizes catalog handling and limits public routing to English, but an explicitly accepted legacy localization migration can still fail and the French fallback test does not validate French. These issues should be addressed before merge.

Assert the localized description and target too.

The test verifies the localized title and install action, but it does not verify Components.<slug>.description or Components.<slug>.target. A fallback or incorrect translation for either field would still pass. Add expected description and target values to each locale case and assert them on the card.
