Locale Change Review is now available: a small local tool for reviewing translation CSVs before a release.
When source text changes but a translation stays the same, it flags that translation for review. It also checks empty translations, duplicate keys and simple placeholder mismatches. An unchanged translation may still be correct; the report is a prompt for human review.

Click Run tool to explore four fixed examples. No installation or personal files are needed for the demo.
Full local tool: $4.99 USD. The download supports your own CSV files and includes a CLI, JSON/CSV reports, source code, examples and an MIT license. The local workflow uses Node.js (20+ intended; tested on Windows with 24.19.0).
Built with AI assistance. No automatic translation, linguistic assessment, ICU/plural parsing or engine-import validation.
For developers who work with CSV translations: which problem costs you more review time—missing placeholders or translations left unchanged after source edits? Feedback on the demo is welcome; please use synthetic examples rather than private project files.
