Prove a language switch translates what the user sees, keeps what they had already typed, and is still in force after a reload. Use when i18n, a locale picker, a language menu or translation files were added or changed, when a string is suspected of staying in the old language or showing a raw translation key, or when a user reports losing their form or their language choice after switching or refreshing.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# A translated heading is not a translated page
Clicking the language menu and seeing one word change proves one string was wired up. It does not prove the rest of the page followed, that the field the user was in the middle of filling still holds what they typed, or that the choice outlives a refresh. Those are three separate bugs. Each ships regularly, and glancing at the page after the click catches none of them.
**Reticle** can prove all three in the running app, with no test code. Not set up? Follow the [`reticle`](https://github.com/reticlehq/reticle/blob/main/skills/reticle/SKILL.md) skill: it installs Reticle, asks the user before `init` changes the app's files, and proves one flow.
## Before you start
- **Confirm the session can observe:** `reticle_session({ action: "list" })`. A hidden or throttled tab can accept a click and render nothing. If it is not healthy, report the run as **blocked**, not passed.

How to install
mdr add reticlehq/reticle/verify-language-switch@sha256:97bc9535975992b4The line at the top of this page pins the label v3.9.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
