How to Translate UI Text with OpenClaw

Translate application UI strings with OpenClaw and ToolRouter. App localization made simple.

OpenClaw handles translation as a batch localization pipeline designed for production-scale multilingual operations. Submit entire content sets -- locale files, product catalogs, documentation -- across multiple target languages and receive consistently formatted translations ready for direct import into your CMS, app bundles, or documentation system. The structured output eliminates manual reformatting and integrates cleanly into CI/CD localization workflows where translations need to be generated, validated, and deployed without human intervention at each step.

Connect ToolRouter to OpenClaw

1Install the CLI

npm install -g toolrouter-mcp

2Call tools directly from OpenClaw

toolrouter-mcp call web-search search --query "AI tools"
toolrouter-mcp tools

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Translate tool:

Ask OpenClaw: "Translate these UI strings to Thai using the translate tool"
OpenClaw returns translated strings with placeholders preserved
Request: "Check for any strings where the translation might not fit in a button or label"
Integrate the translations into your locale files

Example Prompt

Try this with OpenClaw using the Translate tool

Translate our web app UI strings to Thai and Vietnamese. Keep all {count} and {name} placeholders unchanged.

Tips

Use list_languages first to confirm all target languages are supported
Ask OpenClaw to group translations by UI component type for easier review
Prioritize user-facing strings (buttons, headers) over developer-facing ones (logs)
