LibreTranslate
Provide private text translation for personal or business workflows without sending every translation to a commercial per-character API.
Workflows the agent can manage
- translate text
- detect languages
- translate through an HTTP API
- run private translation workloads
Agent operability
Editorial agent-readiness estimate: 5/5. This reflects documented interfaces and proposed workflows, not a successful installation or a support promise. Assessment date not recorded; verify upstream documentation before use.
- REST — Documented HTTP API exposes translation, language detection and supported-language operations
Evidence consulted
- Official repository documents self-hosting, Docker deployment and the HTTP translation API. [stated; https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate]
- Official project documentation describes locally hosted translation backed by open-source Argos Translate models. [stated; https://docs.libretranslate.com/]
Implementation notes
Install only the language models the user needs, expose the API through authenticated/TLS-protected workspace routing where appropriate, and benchmark the chosen workspace size before promising throughput.
Licence / edition: AGPL-3.0 Upstream also operates hosted LibreTranslate-compatible endpoints/services; self-hosting keeps inference local to the workspace.
Resources: heavy class — Translation models consume meaningful disk and memory and CPU-only inference can be slow. Required resources vary sharply by enabled languages and concurrency, so treat this as a heavier workload and limit installed models to those actually needed. (inferred)
External prerequisites: None recorded
Security: Catalogue qualification is not a security certification; inspect current advisories, supported versions and deployment guidance before setup.
