  1. Real-world use case 01

    Broken brace detection

    A developer pastes a complex plural string into the agent, and it immediately flags a missing closing brace.

  2. Real-world use case 02

    Variable inventorying

    An engineer needs to know which keys to add to their translation JSON, so they ask the agent to list all variables in a specific template.

  3. Real-world use case 03

    Plural logic audit

    A localization specialist wants to ensure a new select block follows all rules, and the agent confirms the categories are correct.

Before you connect

Questions about ICU MessageFormat Validator.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

How can ICU MessageFormat Validator prevent translation errors?

It catches unmatched braces and bad syntax before they reach production, preventing broken UI elements.

Can I use ICU MessageFormat Validator to find all keys in a string?

Yes, you can ask your agent to list every variable name found within the template.

Does ICU MessageFormat Validator check for pluralization rules?

It verifies that your categories like 'one' or 'few' are valid and that the mandatory 'other' category is present.

Will ICU MessageFormat Validator work with my existing AI client?

Yes, any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf can use it via Vinkius.

Can this capability find unescaped quotes in my strings?

Yes, it specifically checks for single quotes that might break your parsing engine during runtime.

How does the validator handle single quotes?

The validate_structural_braces capability implements a state machine to track escaping. It recognizes that two consecutive single quotes (double-single-quote) represent a literal single quote, preventing the parser from incorrectly terminating an escaped sequence.

What happens if I use an invalid category in a plural block?

If you include an unsupported keyword like 'none' or 'all', the validate_category_logic capability will flag a syntax error, identifying the exact character offset where the invalid category was detected.

Can I use this to find all variables in my translation files?

Yes, by using the extract_template_variables capability, you can provide any ICU string and receive a complete list of all unique variable names found within the template, such as 'userName' or 'itemCount'.
