feat: extract translation and merge resolver modes into reusable skills (#11215) 
* feat: extract translation and merge resolver modes into reusable skills

- Add roo-translation skill with comprehensive i18n guidelines
- Add roo-conflict-resolution skill for intelligent merge conflict resolution
- Add /roo-translate slash command as shortcut for translation skill
- Add /roo-resolve-conflicts slash command as shortcut for conflict resolution skill

The existing translate and merge-resolver modes are preserved. These new skills
and commands provide reusable access to the same functionality.

Closes CLO-722

* feat: add guidances directory with translator guidance file

- Add .roo/guidances/roo-translator.md for brand voice, tone, and word choice guidance
- Update roo-translation skill to reference the guidance file

The guidance file serves as a placeholder for translation style guidelines
that will be interpolated at runtime.

* fix: rename guidances directory to guidance (singular)

* fix: remove language-specific section from translator guidance

The guidance file should focus on brand voice, tone, and word choice only.

* fix: remove language-specific guidelines section from skill file

* Update .roo/skills/roo-translation/SKILL.md

Translate and localize strings in the Roo Code extension [language-code or 'all'] [string-key or file-path] translate

Perform translation and localization tasks for the Roo Code extension. This command activates the translation workflow with comprehensive i18n guidelines.

Quick Start

  1. Identify the translation scope:

    • If a specific language code is provided (e.g., de, zh-CN), focus on that language
    • If all is specified, translate to all supported languages
    • If a string key is provided, locate and translate that specific string
    • If a file path is provided, work with that translation file

  2. Supported languages: ca, de, en, es, fr, hi, id, it, ja, ko, nl, pl, pt-BR, ru, tr, vi, zh-CN, zh-TW

  3. Translation locations:

    • Core Extension: src/i18n/locales/
    • WebView UI: webview-ui/src/i18n/locales/

Workflow

  1. If adding new strings:

    • Add the English string first
    • Ask for confirmation before translating to other languages
    • Use apply_diff for efficient file updates

  2. If updating existing strings:

    • Identify all affected language files
    • Update English first, then propagate changes

  3. Validate your changes:

    node scripts/find-missing-translations.js

Key Guidelines

  • Use informal speech (e.g., "du" not "Sie" in German)
  • Keep technical terms like "token", "Prompt" in English
  • Preserve all {{variable}} placeholders exactly
  • Use apply_diff instead of write_to_file for existing files

Examples

  • /roo-translate de - Focus on German translations
  • /roo-translate all welcome.title - Translate a specific key to all languages
  • /roo-translate zh-CN src/i18n/locales/zh-CN/core.json - Work on specific file
