Feature Request: /insights report language localization (i18n support)
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 31, 2026 by AriesOxO Closed Apr 3, 2026
Summary
The /insights command generates an excellent usage analysis report, but currently the report content is hardcoded in English only. For non-English speaking users, it would be very helpful to support localization — at minimum, respecting the user's language preference configured in CLAUDE.md or system locale.
Current Behavior
/insightsalways generates the HTML report in English- The
CLAUDE.mdlanguage instructions (e.g., "use Simplified Chinese for all output") are not respected by the insights report generation - All section titles, descriptions, analysis text, and suggestions are in English
Expected Behavior
The /insights report should support localization, possible approaches:
- Respect
CLAUDE.mdlanguage settings — if a user has configured a preferred language, generate the report in that language - Add a
--langflag — e.g.,/insights --lang zh-CNto specify the output language - Detect system locale — auto-detect from the OS locale setting
Use Case
I work on a medical health platform monorepo with a Chinese-speaking team. All our documentation, commit messages, and Claude interactions are in Simplified Chinese. The insights report being English-only creates friction when sharing with team members.
Environment
- Claude Code CLI on Windows 10
- Model: claude-opus-4-6
- Language preference: Simplified Chinese (configured in global CLAUDE.md)
