+- review each translation on its own, then run a cross-language parity pass.

+Do not append generic prose beneath Repository Pulse. Its SVG already labels
+the metric window, snapshot date, and refresh behavior. Add surrounding prose
+only when the repository has a project-specific caveat the chart cannot show.

+## Multilingual quality gate
+
+A translated README must work as an independent product page for a native
+reader. Do not accept a literal, sentence-by-sentence translation merely
+because every English paragraph has a counterpart.
+
+For each maintained language:
+
+1. preserve the canonical section order, capability matrix, commands, example
+   outputs, links, maturity, costs, and trust boundaries;
+2. rewrite headings and prose in natural target-language syntax and established
+   technical terminology;
+3. keep the shortest useful explanation and move exhaustive implementation
+   detail to shared reference docs;
+4. remove maintainer-only machine context, duplicated setup guidance, and stale
+   hard-coded versions;
+5. render the document, validate code fences/tables/links, and compare it with
+   the canonical README for semantic—not necessarily line-for-line—parity.
+
+For Simplified Chinese, prefer direct Chinese developer prose over translated
+English noun stacks or mixed-language headings. Keep product and protocol names
+in English only when that is the familiar ecosystem term.
+
+Repository Pulse is self-describing. By default, place only the linked SVG in
+the activity section; do not generate a generic English or Chinese paragraph
+about Traffic windows, automatic refresh, or whether clones prove adoption.
