Features

4-Tab GUI Architecture

• Workspace Tab: Primary translation interface with provider/model selection, API key pool management (up to 10 keys), custom context input, target language dropdown, batch processing controls (Start/Pause/Stop), and live logging output
• Translation Memory Tab: Visual cache manager with:
  • Real-time search across original and translated text with 300ms debounce
  • Modpack combobox filter for isolating translations by modpack
  • Target language filter synchronized with Workspace tab
  • 4-column QTableWidget (Original, Translation, Modpack, Added) with auto-stretch column width layout
  • Inline editing of translations directly in the table
  • Bulk operations: Load More (pagination), Delete Selected, Save Changes, Clear Cache
• Settings Tab: Configuration management for providers, models, API keys, and application settings
• Credits Tab: Displays project credits and acknowledgments

Asynchronous Processing

• Non-blocking I/O with asyncio and httpx.AsyncClient
• Configurable concurrency (1-10 threads)
• Adaptive chunking:
  • 5 items per chunk for Ollama (local inference)
  • Configurable batch size (default: 50) for cloud providers
• Automatic delays between chunks to prevent rate limiting

Fault Tolerance

• Round-Robin multi-key pool with automatic load balancing
• Invalid keys (HTTP 401/403) are permanently removed from the pool
• Rate-limited keys (HTTP 429) enter exponential backoff (0.2s to 64s)
• Fallback to single-item translation on chunk failure
• Mixed Provider Mode: Auto-detects provider from key prefix and uses saved defaults
• Binary split fallback for parse errors with recursive chunk splitting

Smart Caching System

• SQLite-based cache with WAL mode for concurrent access
• Per-language tables (cache_{lang_code}) to prevent cross-contamination
• Modpack isolation: Translations can be filtered and managed by modpack
• Thread-safe operations with locking
• Real-time persistence between chunks
• Defensive sanitization: Automatic cleanup of nested dictionaries in SNBT and protection against malformed JSON in responses

🛡️ Pluralization Guard

Prevents redundant API calls for highly similar strings with a 90% similarity threshold

The Pluralization Guard is a sophisticated fuzzy-matching system that automatically detects and reuses translations for similar phrases, preventing duplicate API calls and saving costs. It works by:

1. Exact Match Check: First attempts to find an exact match in the cache
2. Length Filtering: Searches for candidates within ±15% length of the input text
3. Number Preservation: Ensures strings with different numbers (e.g., "item 1" vs "item 2") are NOT matched
4. Fuzzy Matching: Uses difflib.SequenceMatcher with a 90% similarity threshold
5. Tail Preservation: Maintains Minecraft formatting codes at the end of strings (e.g., "hello§a" → cached "привет" + "§a")

Example:

• Input: "Get 5 diamonds" → Cache miss
• Input: "Get 6 diamonds" → Cache hit! (90%+ similarity, same structure)
• Input: "Get diamond" → Cache miss (different number count)
• Input: "Get 5 diamonds§a" → Cache hit! (matches "Get 5 diamonds" + preserves "§a")

This prevents charging for translations of:

• Plural variations: "apple" → "apples"
• Number variations: "item 1" → "item 2" (if structure matches)
• Minor formatting differences: "text" → "text§a"

Minecraft Formatting Protection

• Regex shielding for namespace tags (#c:ender_pearl_dusts), UUIDs, and entity IDs
• Temporary placeholder substitution (__TAG_N__) during translation
• Preserves all Minecraft-specific formatting codes
