Summary

  • Add Brazilian Portuguese as a persisted UI language with native display name and common aliases (pt, pt-BR, português, and variants).
  • Register the pt-BR Fluent locale and translate 260 core strings covering settings, notifications, provider states, tray menus, the dashboard, and usage metrics.
  • Keep untranslated strings safe through the existing en-US fallback behavior used by the other non-English locales.
  • Extend the frontend bridge union, fallback language picker, and Intl locale mapping.
  • Add tests for language discovery, alias resolution, bridge bundles, fallback completeness, and placeholder preservation.

Related issue

No linked issue.

Affected areas

  • Tray panel
  • Settings UI
  • Config file / settings persistence
  • CLI
  • Provider-specific behavior
  • Installer / release packaging
  • Startup / background behavior
  • Documentation
  • Other: locale bridge and notification/tray strings

Validation

  • powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoProfile -File scripts\local-check.ps1 — not run: Rust, Node, and pnpm toolchains are not installed or available in PATH on this host.
  • For full pre-release validation: not applicable.
  • For installer/release changes: not applicable.
  • Thermo-nuclear code quality review completed before submitting.
  • Other: git diff --check passed; static audit confirmed all Language mappings and catalog assertions were updated. Hosted CI is required for executable validation.

UI / tray proof

  • Not applicable
  • CUA Driver visual proof attached
  • CUA Driver could not be used; the required fresh desktop build could not be produced because the Rust and frontend toolchains are unavailable on this host. No stale binary was used as proof.

Notes for reviewers

This is intentionally a draft until hosted CI validates the Rust/TypeScript changes. Like the existing translated locales, pt-BR is allowed to fall back to English for keys not yet translated. Reviewers should focus on Fluent placeholder preservation and Brazilian Portuguese terminology.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added Brazilian Portuguese as a language option, with localized app text for settings, providers, usage, notifications, the system tray, credentials, updates, diagnostics, and API configuration.
    • Added support for common Portuguese language labels and set Brazilian Portuguese to use the pt-BR locale.
  • Documentation
    • Added a Brazilian Portuguese README and updated language navigation links across README translations.

Thermo-nuclear code-quality review

Verdict: FINDINGS. Reviewed head 4f0f08247. Thanks for the translation work. The wiring follows the existing locale pattern correctly, and I have no structural objection to the code in this PR.

P2: pt-BR.ftl covers 260 of 879 keys (about 30%)

Current key counts: en-US.ftl 879, tr-TR.ftl 775, es-MX.ftl 708, pt-BR.ftl 260. The loader falls back to English, so nothing breaks. But selecting "Português (Brasil)" would show a UI that is about 70% English, which is not what "Add Brazilian Portuguese localization" promises. Either:

  • bring coverage in line with the other shipped locales, at least every Settings tab, the tray and provider-detail surfaces, and all error strings; or
  • say in the PR (and in the language picker, if the maintainers want that) that the locale is partial.

The two CodeRabbit translation notes (pt-BR.ftl:16 startup wording, pt-BR.ftl:244 status message) are still open.

P3 (non-blocking, for maintainers): adding a language touches seven places

This PR had to edit Language (enum, display_name, all, key, aliases), locale.rs::language_id (a new static plus a match arm), the .ftl include list in the tests, bridge.ts, GeneralTab.tsx FALLBACK_LANGUAGE_OPTIONS, and ClaudeSwapAccountsSection.tsx languageLocale. The BCP-47 tag pt-BR is written out by hand in four of those places. The underlying problem is that Language doesn't own its tag. A Language::bcp47() that drives language_id, the .ftl lookup and the frontend locale (sent over the bridge) would turn the next language into a one-arm change. That's pre-existing debt, so it's not a reason to hold this PR.

Thank you, @Finesssee, for the thorough review and the clear feedback. I’ll make the necessary improvements by bringing the Brazilian Portuguese translation coverage to 100% of the localization keys and addressing the two outstanding CodeRabbit translation notes.

Review and integration (v0.70.0)

Obrigado. I reviewed head 32f55b70d7 and merged it unchanged into integrate/v0.70.0-community, which feeds the v0.70.0 release PR #735. Your commits are kept as they are; when #735 lands on main, GitHub will show this PR as merged.

Review. The wiring is correct end to end: Language::PortugueseBrazil, the serde key and aliases, the Fluent id, the picker, the bridge type, the Claude swap locale, and tests. The earlier review notes were all addressed.

Merge (cb3332c9). The merge had no conflicts, but the release branch's locale test then failed in two ways:

  • pt-BR.ftl still had 12 keys that were already retired at its base (the PopOut scale and 30-day labels);
  • it lacked 58 keys added on the release branch since then.

Follow-ups (separate commits):

  • b06db5d1: removes the 12 retired keys, translates the 58 new ones, and puts the keys in en-US order.
  • 3bac9ad7: updates the README.pt-BR provider matrix (Crof removed, Venice web session and Aixy added).
  • f292b7fa: cargo fmt on the pt-BR locale test line.

The locale and settings tests, the Tauri locale tests, the bridge and General tab Vitest suites, and check-locale all pass. A native speaker's read of the 58 new strings would still be welcome.

Follow-up to nesszer#617: drop twelve keys the release branch retired (the
PopOut window and scale strings, the 30-day panel labels replaced by
the history-period labels, and the all-time label) so the locale test
no longer rejects unknown Fluent keys, and translate the 58 keys added
on the release branch (Aixy/Bifrost gateways, Atlas Cloud balance,
history periods, OpenAI daily chart, daily ledger, stacked tray, pace
colors, preferred currency, Zed browser billing, burndown chart). The
file now follows the en-US key order.
