kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 d194b77f76 fix(i18n): name the engine that produced each translation
The gateway routes every request on its own, so a catalog holds the work of several engines, while the mark apply() wrote was the constant translated-by: libretranslate and attributed all of it to one backend. The catalogs on disk show the drift: 1021537 entries carry that constant and 13 carry ollama, written once the gateway began answering from more than one place.

The constant becomes machine_translation(engine), which names what the gateway reported and writes unnamed where it reported nothing, plus is_machine_translation(), which recognises any of them by prefix so every mark already on disk keeps matching. Outcome carries an engines tuple aligned with its values, merge pads it, and _reask returns the name alongside the text: a successful re-ask records the engine that answered, not the one whose rejection it replaced, because the catalog does not carry that rejected text.

apply() now strips an earlier mark before stamping the current one. clear() removes only refusal prefixes, so an entry re-translated after i18n-prune would otherwise accumulate one mark per engine and the record would be ambiguous again, which is the defect this change exists to remove.

This is the half that makes the attribution true. Recording latency in the decider history is the other half; together they let the router weigh quality against speed per engine, which a catalog claiming one engine everywhere cannot support.

Shared Utilities (utils/)

This directory contains shared Python helpers used by custom modules and plugins.

Purpose

Use utils/ for reusable code that should not be duplicated across:

  • library/ modules,
  • plugins/action/,
  • plugins/filter/,
  • plugins/lookup/.

Typical shared utilities:

  • API clients,
  • validation/conversion helpers,
  • path and configuration helpers,
  • cross-plugin/module domain logic.
  • Shared HTTP(S) connection handler for multiple modules.
  • Common validation or transformation functions for user input.
  • Utility functions for interacting with Docker, LDAP, etc.
  • Grouped helper packages such as utils/domains/ for related domain logic.

Design Guidelines

  • Keep helpers focused and composable.
  • Avoid side effects during import.
  • Prefer explicit function/class APIs over implicit globals.
  • Keep dependencies minimal so modules/plugins stay lightweight.

Example Import

from utils.domains.primary_domain import get_primary_domain

What Does Not Belong Here

  • Standalone executable modules (put in library/).
  • Ansible plugin entrypoints (put in plugins/*).
