## What it does

\`bat-submit` handles new or updated AI tool listings for BAT AI Tools through the `bat-cli` command-line tool. Its workflow runs in sequence: extract site data, translate `en.json`, then validate, package, and submit the result. It does not pause for confirmation between stages.

The extraction step creates `base.json`, `en.json`, and a website screenshot when capture succeeds. The translation step localizes the English file into 27 languages in batches of 2–4. The last step merges the files, performs final checks, packs assets, and posts the submission.

Install `bat-cli` first with `npm install -g @bataitools/bat-cli@latest` or `bun add -g @bataitools/bat-cli@latest`. The default API endpoint is `https://api.bataitools.com`; `BAT_API_URL` or `--api` can override it. The submission cannot run without `bat-cli`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add bataitools/bat-skills --skill bat-submit -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/bat-submit/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add bataitools/bat-skills --skill bat-submit -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add bataitools/bat-skills --skill bat-submit -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install bataitools/bat-skills bat-submit
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add bataitools/bat-skills --skill bat-submit -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/bataitools/bat-skills --path skills/bat-submit
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add bataitools/bat-skills --skill bat-submit -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/bataitools/bat-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/bat-submit/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- extract AI tool details from a website
- localize the listing in batches
- assemble translated files into a submission bundle
- send or update a listing with `bat-cli`

## Example prompts
- Submit my AI tool to the directory through `bat-cli`.
- Extract the site data, translate the listing, and send it in one workflow.
- Update the tool listing with `bat-cli submit`.

# BAT AI Tools — Submit Skill

Submit or update an AI tool listing on [bataitools.com](https://bataitools.com) using the `bat-cli` command-line tool. The workflow always runs in **3 sequential steps** without pausing for user confirmation between them.

## Prerequisites

1. **Install bat-cli (Ensure latest version):**
    ```bash
    npm install -g @bataitools/bat-cli@latest
    # or
    bun add -g @bataitools/bat-cli@latest
    ```
2. API endpoint default: `https://api.bataitools.com` (override via `BAT_API_URL` env or `--api` flag).

## Core Rule: Never generate all languages in one step

Large single-file JSON causes truncation and validation failures. Always run the 3 steps back-to-back:

| Step | What happens | Key output files |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **1. Extract**   | Crawl site, fill base.json (with logo URL) + en.json + capture screenshot | base.json, en.json, website-screenshot.webp (or .png) |
| **2. Translate** | Translate `en.json` into 27 other languages (batches)     | `i18n/zh.json`, `i18n/ja.json`, … (28 total) |
| **3. Submit**    | Merge, final validate, pack (uploads assets), POST submit | `submit.bundle.json`, submission confirmed   |

Logo is extracted as a direct remote URL in `base.json`. Website screenshots are optionally captured locally (via browser subagent or CLI); if omitted or failed, the server automatically enriches missing assets asynchronously after publication (fail-soft).

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **[Mandatory AI Identity Declaration]**
> When generating `base.json` (Step 1) and `submit.bundle.json` (Step 3), the AI Agent **MUST** include the `"llmModel"` field specifying its own active AI model identity name (e.g., `"gemini-3.6-flash"`, `"claude-3-5-sonnet"`, `"gpt-4o"`, `"deepseek-v3"`, etc.).


> [!WARNING]
> **[Strict Hard Constraint] You are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from translating more than 4 languages in a single Prompt! Running scripts (such as Python scripts) to batch-request or process more than 4 languages at once is also strictly prohibited.**
> You are only allowed to translate 2 to 4 languages at a time. You must strictly process them in batches, and you must verify that the current batch is successfully written to local files before proceeding to the next batch.

## Per-site directory isolation (mandatory)

Every website gets its own directory keyed by URL hostname (lowercased only — no stripping `www`).
