Your data is protected. See how we built it.

Localization workflows are a mess of tabs and copy-paste.

Today, updating translations for a global product means jumping between tools: the code editor to grab a key; a spreadsheet to manage language variants; and finally, the web console to execute the changes. This process is slow, error-prone, and requires constant context switching that grinds development momentum to a halt.

With this MCP, you talk directly to your AI agent. You ask it to handle the update. It executes the necessary calls—using tools like `update_key` or `add_translation`—and returns confirmation. The whole process stays in one conversation thread. You just get results.

Lokalise gives you control over your entire content pipeline.

Manual steps that vanish include navigating to the project list, fetching metadata using `get_project`, and manually checking team member roles via `list_team_members`. These administrative checks used to be a chore of clicks and dashboard reviews.

Now, you just ask. The agent retrieves the data for you. You aren't limited by the UI structure; you're limited only by how well you can articulate your needs.

What Lokalise MCP does for your AI

Need to handle a massive, multi-language launch? This connector lets you take full control of your product's localization process without leaving your coding environment. You talk to your AI agent, and it handles the API calls to Lokalise. Want to see what projects exist or get details on a specific one? Just ask.

Need to add fifty new strings across ten languages? It manages that complex data exchange for you. This means no more copying massive CSVs into separate web tabs. You can list all your translation keys and then tell the agent, 'Update this key with these new values.' The whole process is managed through natural conversation, making it feel like having a dedicated localization coordinator sitting right next to you.

All of this powerful functionality is available through Vinkius, connecting Lokalise directly to your preferred AI client.

Frequently asked questions about Lokalise MCP

How do I list all my projects using Lokalise MCP? +

You simply ask the agent to 'List all projects.' The agent uses list_projects and returns a comprehensive list of every project under your account, letting you see what's ready for work.

Can I bulk upload files with Lokalise MCP? +

Yes. You use the upload_file tool to send localization files like JSON or XLIFF directly into your project queue, handling large data sets in one go.

What if I need to change a key's value? +

You tell the agent exactly which key and what the new text should be. It then uses the update_key tool to modify that string across all relevant languages.

How do I get translated content for a specific feature? +

Use the agent to list translations via list_translations. This shows you every language and its current status for a single, identified key.

Is Lokalise MCP useful for developers? +

Absolutely. Developers love it because they can use the agent to run commands like create_key directly from their IDE chat window instead of needing to open a web browser tab.
