translate-book-parallel

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection. A Claude Code skill that translates entire books (PDF/DOCX/EPUB) into any language using parallel subagents. Each chunk gets an isolated context window — preventing truncation and context accumulation that plague single-session translation. Verify all tools are available: Option A: npx (recommended) Option B: ClawHub Option C: Git clone Once the skill is installed, use natural language inside Claude Code: The skill orchestrates the full pipeline automatically. Language codes are extensible — add new ones in the skill definition. This produces inside {book_name}_temp/ : The skill handles this step — it launches 8 concurrent subagents per batch, each translating one chunk independently: Resumable: Already-translated chunks (valid output_chunk*.md files) are skipped on re-run. Before merging, validation checks: Outputs produced: If validation fails, the script auto-deletes stale output.md and re-merges from valid chunk outputs. If you need to update the title, author, template, or image assets without re-translating: Do NOT delete chunk files — those are your translated content.
