What you can do with Lingva Translate

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Translation, 2 operations

GETtranslate
Translates text using Lingva's privacy-respecting Google Translate proxy. Supports 100+ languages with automatic source detection. Returns translated text plus optional metadata like pronunciation and definitions.
GETtranslate_auto_detect
Translates text to a target language while automatically detecting the source language. Returns translated text plus the detected source language code.

Audio, 1 operation

GETget_audio
Generates text-to-speech audio for text in a specified language using Lingva. Returns audio data as a number array (Uint8Array bytes) for playback.

Graphql, 1 operation

POSTgraphql_query
Executes a GraphQL query against Lingva API for translations, audio, or language lists. Allows requesting only needed fields in one call.

Language, 1 operation

GETget_languages
Lists all languages supported by Lingva Translate. Returns language codes and names for building language selectors.

Lingva Translate API rate limits

No official rate limits documented. Self-hosted instances may have custom limits.

These are the limits Lingva Translate documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Lingva Translate documentation for current values.

Use Lingva Translate from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Lingva Translate in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Lingva Translate operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.
