Medical Translation - Precise Medical Terminology Translation

When to Use

• - Use this skill when the task needs Use medical translation for academic writing workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
• Use this skill for academic writing tasks that require explicit assumptions, bounded scope, and a reproducible output format.
• Use this skill when you need a documented fallback path for missing inputs, execution errors, or partial evidence.

Key Features

• - Scope-focused workflow aligned to: Use medical translation for academic writing workflows that need structured execution, explicit assumptions, and clear output boundaries.
• Packaged executable path(s): scripts/main.py plus 1 additional script(s).
• Reference material available in references/ for task-specific guidance.
• Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable.

Dependencies

See ## Prerequisites above for related details.

• - Python: 3.10+. Repository baseline for current packaged skills.
• INLINECODE5: not explicitly version-pinned in this skill package. Add pinned versions if this skill needs stricter environment control.

Example Usage

See ## Usage above for related details.

CODEBLOCK0

Example run plan:

1. 1. Confirm the user input, output path, and any required config values.
2. Edit the in-file CONFIG block or documented parameters if the script uses fixed settings.
3. Run python scripts/main.py with the validated inputs.
4. Review the generated output and return the final artifact with any assumptions called out.

Implementation Details

See ## Workflow above for related details.

• - Execution model: validate the request, choose the packaged workflow, and produce a bounded deliverable.
• Input controls: confirm the source files, scope limits, output format, and acceptance criteria before running any script.
• Primary implementation surface: scripts/main.py with additional helper scripts under scripts/.
• Reference guidance: references/ contains supporting rules, prompts, or checklists.
• Parameters to clarify first: input path, output path, scope filters, thresholds, and any domain-specific constraints.
• Output discipline: keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly, and avoid undocumented side effects.

Quick Check

Use this command to verify that the packaged script entry point can be parsed before deeper execution.

CODEBLOCK1

Audit-Ready Commands

Use these concrete commands for validation. They are intentionally self-contained and avoid placeholder paths.

CODEBLOCK2

Workflow

1. 1. Confirm the user objective, required inputs, and non-negotiable constraints before doing detailed work.
2. Validate that the request matches the documented scope and stop early if the task would require unsupported assumptions.
3. Use the packaged script path or the documented reasoning path with only the inputs that are actually available.
4. Return a structured result that separates assumptions, deliverables, risks, and unresolved items.
5. If execution fails or inputs are incomplete, switch to the fallback path and state exactly what blocked full completion.

Audit Note

The main script expects positional translation arguments and returns a non-zero status for argument-only help calls. Audit validation therefore uses scripts/smoke_test.py as the deterministic fallback command for structural verification.

Description

Focuses on precise translation of medical terminology (such as Chinese-English translation, Spanish-English translation), rather than general translation. Ensures accurate communication of medical concepts across different languages.

Usage

Provide medical terms or paragraphs, specify source and target languages, and obtain professional-grade medical translation.

Parameters

• - term: Medical term or text to be translated
• sourcelang: Source language (e.g., Chinese, English)
• targetlang: Target language (e.g., English, Chinese)
• context: Optional, provide context for more accurate translation

Example

Input:

• - term: "Acute Myeloid Leukemia"
• sourcelang: English
• targetlang: Chinese

Output: "Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)"

Risk Assessment

Risk Indicator	Assessment	Level
Code Execution	Python/R scripts executed locally	Medium
Network Access

No external API calls | Low | | File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium | | Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low | | Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |

Security Checklist

• - [ ] No hardcoded credentials or API keys
• [ ] No unauthorized file system access (../)
• [ ] Output does not expose sensitive information
• [ ] Prompt injection protections in place
• [ ] Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
• [ ] Output directory restricted to workspace
• [ ] Script execution in sandboxed environment
• [ ] Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
• [ ] Dependencies audited

Prerequisites

No additional Python packages required.

Evaluation Criteria

Success Metrics

• - [ ] Successfully executes main functionality
• [ ] Output meets quality standards
• [ ] Handles edge cases gracefully
• [ ] Performance is acceptable

Test Cases

1. 1. Basic Functionality: Standard input → Expected output
2. Edge Case: Invalid input → Graceful error handling
3. Performance: Large dataset → Acceptable processing time

Lifecycle Status

• - Current Stage: Draft
• Next Review Date: 2026-03-06
• Known Issues: None
• Planned Improvements:

- Performance optimization - Additional feature support

Output Requirements

Every final response should make these items explicit when they are relevant:

• - Objective or requested deliverable
• Inputs used and assumptions introduced
• Workflow or decision path
• Core result, recommendation, or artifact
• Constraints, risks, caveats, or validation needs
• Unresolved items and next-step checks

Error Handling

• - If required inputs are missing, state exactly which fields are missing and request only the minimum additional information.
• If the task goes outside the documented scope, stop instead of guessing or silently widening the assignment.
• If scripts/main.py fails, report the failure point, summarize what still can be completed safely, and provide a manual fallback.
• Do not fabricate files, citations, data, search results, or execution outcomes.

Input Validation

This skill accepts requests that match the documented purpose of medical-translation and include enough context to complete the workflow safely.

Do not continue the workflow when the request is out of scope, missing a critical input, or would require unsupported assumptions. Instead respond:

INLINECODE17 only handles its documented workflow. Please provide the missing required inputs or switch to a more suitable skill.

Response Template

Use the following fixed structure for non-trivial requests:

1. 1. Objective
2. Inputs Received
3. Assumptions
4. Workflow
5. Deliverable
6. Risks and Limits
7. Next Checks

If the request is simple, you may compress the structure, but still keep assumptions and limits explicit when they affect correctness.
