List Projects and Organizations with the MCP Server

Want to scope a job? First, use `list_organizations` to see all your accounts. Then, grab project IDs by running `list_projects`, optionally filtering for a specific organization ID. Once you have that slug, you can narrow down resources using `list_resources`. This lets Cascade know exactly which projects we're talking about before it hits the Transifex API.

Get Specific Language and Project Data

Need a specific language code? Just call `get_language` with either an ID or a two-letter code. If you need to target content for one spot, use `get_project(o:org-slug:p:project-slug)`. This lets your AI client pinpoint exactly what needs translating—down to the single resource string using `get_resource`.

Manage Resource Strings and Localization Content

To get all source strings for a piece of content, use `list_resource_strings`, making sure you provide the necessary resource ID. This gives your agent a full list of what needs localization. You can also check existing resources with `list_resource_strings` to make sure you have every needed string pulled into your workflow.
