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.

# Extract Audio {#extract-audio}
Extract the audio track from a video file and save it as MP3, WAV, M4A, or OGG.
## API Endpoint {#api-endpoint}
`POST /api/v1/tools/video/extract-audio`
Accepts multipart form data with a video file and a JSON `settings` field.
## Parameters {#parameters}
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| format | string | No | `"mp3"` | Output audio format: `mp3`, `wav`, `m4a`, `ogg` |
## Example Request {#example-request}
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:1349/api/v1/tools/video/extract-audio \
-H "Authorization: Bearer si_your-api-key" \
-F "file=@clip.mp4" \
-F 'settings={"format": "mp3"}'
```
## Example Response {#example-response}
```json
{
"jobId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
"downloadUrl": "/api/v1/download/a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890/clip.mp3",
"originalSize": 12500000,
"processedSize": 3200000
}
```
## Notes {#notes}
- If the video has no audio track, the request returns a 400 error.
- MP3 is lossy but widely compatible. WAV is lossless but large. M4A (AAC) offers a good balance of quality and size. OGG is available for open codec workflows.
- When the source audio is already AAC and the output format is M4A, the audio stream is copied without re-encoding.
