Integration

SimpleLocalize integration

SimpleLocalize is a translation management platform for software localization. Manage a project's translation keys (single and bulk create, update, delete, screenshots), read and update translations, import and export translation files in 20 formats, start machine or AI auto-translation jobs and translate a single text, manage languages, tags, per-customer translations, glossary entries, suggestions and hosting environments, publish translations to the CDN, and read project activity. Authentication is the project's API key in the X-SimpleLocalize-Token header (Settings, Credentials, API Key), so each credential reaches one project. Routes that need a personal access token instead (listing and creating projects, project contributors, project access, comments) and the custom hosting route that stores cloud storage secrets are not exposed. Rate limits: 60 requests per minute per IP and 300 per project; publication 10 per minute per project.

Ask it in chat

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in SimpleLocalize.Built from the 50 SimpleLocalize tools below, on the connection you add once.

What you can do with SimpleLocalize

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.

Use SimpleLocalize from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

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

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
