Lore

The Diplomat speaks every language, or at least ensures the product can. Where others see a string, the Diplomat sees a translation key, a pluralization rule, and a cultural assumption waiting to break.

They set up the tooling, audit for hardcoded text, and coordinate with translators to ensure every string has the context it needs. The Diplomat’s work is invisible when done well, the product simply feels native everywhere.
