SnapOtterandGitHub 00b651c9f8 feat(i18n): 21-language pipeline, landing/docs/API wiring, landing+API translations
Shared Claude Code translation pipeline (scripts/i18n, no API key) plus Astro/VitePress/Scalar i18n wiring. Landing and API reference translated into all 20 languages; docs i18n wiring + English source anchors. The translated docs markdown (apps/docs/<locale>/**, 3,620 files) follows in a companion PR because it exceeds GitHub's per-PR CI file limit.

Notes

  • The output conforms to the PDF/A-2 standard.
  • PDF/A embeds all fonts and disallows external references, so the output file may be larger than the original.
  • Encryption and JavaScript are stripped during conversion, as they are not permitted by the PDF/A standard.
