Turn a new-website scaffold into a turnkey multi-language site: Astro i18n routing (clean default locale + prefixed others), self-referencing hreflang + x-default in the Base layout, i18n sitemap alternates, a language switcher, and the test-harness changes that keep the green-from-commit-1 gate honest across locales. Run at scaffold time when new-website Q4 = "two+ languages at launch", OR later to add a second language to a single-locale site whose default stays unprefixed (phased rollout).…

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

# Astro i18n setup (scaffold-time, opt-in)

Wires turnkey internationalization into the `new-website` Astro overlay. **Opt-in:**
the default scaffold stays single-locale. Run it either **at scaffold time** for a
2+-language launch (new-website §1 Q4), **or later** when you add a second language to
an existing single-locale site — see **Phased rollout** below.

Safe vs unsafe: because the default locale stays **unprefixed** (`/`, not `/en/`), adding
a *secondary* prefixed locale (`/de/…`) is purely additive — it never moves an existing
URL. What DOES break links/SEO is moving the **default locale itself** off `/` (e.g.
retrofitting `/` → `/en/`); this skill never does that, so keep `prefixDefaultLocale:
false`. A full re-prefixing of the default is a migration, not this skill.

Routing model (house default): **clean default locale, prefixed others** —
`/` and `/about` are the default language (marked `x-default`); other languages get
a prefix (`/de/`, `/de/about`). `prefixDefaultLocale: false`. This keeps the
default-locale URLs identical to a single-locale build, so nothing regresses.

Deep SEO rules (reciprocity, x-default, canonical-vs-hreflang, sitemap structure,
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add karero/croftweaver/astro-i18n-setup@sha256:9cef29d6f1413a28

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.0b58772, 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.
