What it does
The reply — and any artifact commissioned while the mode holds — in Polish. A mode: it stays until changed or cleared with lang:off.
The registry's own words: Answer in Polish: replies — and artifacts commissioned while this mode is active — are delivered in Polish until another `lang:` directive replaces it or `lang:off` clears it back to the conversation's own language. A launch-pack language (pl).
Fire it — usage examples
“Explain the deposit rules.
lang:pol”→ the explanation arrives in Polish, and the mode is confirmed like any mode.
language:polski on— from here on, everything in Polish.→ every reply, and every artifact made meanwhile, in Polish, until
lang:off.
Said aloud: “Lingo, language Polish — the two quotes, compared.”
→ the comparison arrives in Polish; the name is spoken in the language you are already speaking, never in the target tongue.
Spoken. Inside a marked span opened by the wake word “Lingo”, the spoken form is “language Polish”. Dictated directives fire deliberately, never by accident.
What the agent actually does
The agent sets its output language to Polish for the reply and for any artifact commissioned while the mode holds, and records the mode like any mode state — written in the turn it is set, confirmed, read back at session start. Register within Polish remains style:'s work.
The baseline procedure, its edge cases, and this directive's full guide live in the implementation guide: implementation/IMPLEMENTATION.md#cmd-lang-polski ↗.
When the host can't
No Polish on this host: say so plainly in the reply, answer in the conversation's language, and never fake fluency the host does not have or silently substitute a different language. Still record the preference when the user sets one, disclosing that it cannot be executed here.
Conformance — “done when”
The reply (and any artifact in it) is in Polish, or the host's gap is disclosed — fluency is never faked.
Persistence class: mode-state. Execution report in the reply: required. A user can test any of this by hand — fire the directive, then check the result against the store, the schedule, or the reply itself.
