Review fixes: reword flags, gender cross-check vs Czech mod, catch 12 more leaks

- Reword per review: "an eye or four" -> Maj oko, aj štyri; fishing rhyme 1567
  -> ...návnadička (keeps rhyme + "bait is wrong").
- Gender: cross-checked every gendered self-reference against shippy/
  outer-wilds-czech. Only 3 disagreements file-wide -> Arkose (feminine),
  Porphy (feminine), and the hide-and-seek kid at 1627 (feminine) corrected;
  Filix kept feminine (EN "her note" beats Czech's masculine). All other
  Hearthians confirmed masculine.
- Definitive leak detection: quote-normalized suffix-of-key test caught 12 more
  untranslated values the heuristics missed (curly/straight-quote drift) -
  duplicate Eye-shrine walls (1167-1170), Nomai locator, traveler arrival,
  hide-and-seek + ghost-matter kid lines. Now 0 English leaks in the flat list.
- Consistency: "The Good Stuff" standardized to Tá Dobrota.
- glossary.md + review-notes.md updated with the gender findings. Build OK.

+# CLAUDE.md — Outer Wilds SK Translation Mod
+
+Working context for Claude Code (and human contributors) in this repository.
+
+## What this repo is
+
+An **unofficial Slovak (slovenčina) translation mod for *Outer Wilds*** — base
+game **and** the *Echoes of the Eye* DLC. It is primarily a **data/translation
+project**, not a conventional codebase: the bulk of the work is one large XML file
+of translated strings, wrapped in a thin C# mod shell.
+
+- **Not affiliated with Mobius Digital / Annapurna.** Game text is © Mobius
+  Digital, used under their Fan Content Policy. This project's own code and
+  translation are MIT (see [`LICENSE`](LICENSE) and [`README.md`](README.md)).
+- Roadmap and phase status live in [`PLAN.md`](PLAN.md). Update it as phases land.
+
+## How the mod works
+
+It is an [OWML](https://github.com/ow-mods/owml) mod that depends on **xen-42's
+Localization Utility / Interplanetary Polyglot** (`xen.LocalizationUtility`, MIT).
+The utility does all the heavy lifting; this mod just:
+
+1. Declares the dependency in `manifest.json`:
+   `"dependencies": ["xen.LocalizationUtility"]`.
+2. In its `ModBehaviour.Start()`, grabs the API and registers a new language:
+   ```csharp
+   var api = ModHelper.Interaction.TryGetModApi<ILocalizationAPI>("xen.LocalizationUtility");
+   api.RegisterLanguage(this, "Slovenčina", "assets/Translation.xml");
+   ```
+3. Ships the translated strings in `assets/Translation.xml`.
+
+**No game files are needed to build the mod.** The English source
+`Translation.xml` is published by the utility repo and used as the template.
+
+Slovak is a Latin-script language, so **no `AddLanguageFixer`** (that's for RTL
+scripts) is needed. A custom font via `AddLanguageFont` (Unity **2019.4.27f1**
+asset bundle) is only required if the stock game font is missing Slovak glyphs —
+to be verified during in-game testing (Phase 6/7).
+

+
+Model the C#/manifest scaffold on the community Czech mod
+([`shippy/outer-wilds-czech`](https://github.com/shippy/outer-wilds-czech)).
+
+## Translation conventions (important)
+
+`Translation.xml` is a **flat** `<TranslationTable_XML>` of repeated `<entry>`
+blocks, each with a `<key>` and a `<value>`. Rules:
+
+- **Never edit `<key>`.** It is the exact English source string the game matches
+  on — changing it silently breaks that string's translation.
+- **Translate only `<value>`.** Start from a copy of the English file (key == value)
+  and replace each value with Slovak.
+- **Preserve inline markup verbatim**, including XML-escaped tags:
+  `&lt;color=orange&gt;…&lt;/color&gt;`, `&lt;i&gt;…&lt;/i&gt;`, `&lt;/color&gt;`,
+  and raw entities `&lt; &gt; &amp;`. Translate the words, keep the tags.
+- **Keep speaker prefixes** (e.g. `POKE:`, `CLARY:`) and any leading labels.
+- **Use the glossary** (`docs/glossary.md`) for proper nouns and recurring terms so
+  Nomai / the Eye / Ash Twin Project / etc. render identically everywhere.
+- Watch text length: Nomai text walls and UI have limited space — prefer concise
+  phrasings where the English is terse.
+
+**Translation production:** machine-assisted first pass (clean-room, no third-party
+text) followed by a Slovak-speaking review pass. Phase by category for shippable
+increments: **UI/menus → dialogue/text walls → ship log**.
+
+## Build & test
+
+- Toolchain present locally: `dotnet 6.0.400`, `git`. **The game and the Outer
+  Wilds Mod Manager are NOT installed on this machine** — in-game testing (Phase 7)
+  requires installing *Outer Wilds* + Mod Manager + OWML first.
+- Build: `dotnet build` (the `.csproj` references OWML/game DLLs — see the Czech
+  mod for the exact reference setup).
+- Test: load via the Mod Manager, select **Slovenčina**, and verify menus,
+  dialogue, and the ship log render correctly (including diacritics
+  á ä č ď é í ĺ ľ ň ó ô ŕ š ť ú ý ž).
+
+## Repo / process notes
+
+- This is a **standalone project repo** (Gitea `Homer/Outer-Wilds-SK-Translation-Mod`),
+  independent of `~/Agent/Systems`. Changes here do **not** require a system
+  changelog entry — unless we install system tooling (game, Mod Manager, a Unity
+  version) to support it, in which case record that in `~/Agent` docs as usual.
+- Commit as the Gitea identity (Homer <admin@ecoposta.sk>). Don't commit/push
+  unless asked.

+# PLAN.md — Slovak translation of Outer Wilds
+
+Roadmap for building the mod. Status markers: ✅ done · 🚧 in progress · ⬜ todo.
+
+## Goal
+
+Add **Slovenčina** as a fully selectable language to *Outer Wilds*, covering the
+**base game and the *Echoes of the Eye* DLC**, distributed as an Outer Wilds Mod
+Manager mod. Quality target: natural, consistent Slovak — not literal machine
+output.
+
+## Approach
+
+- Built on **xen-42's Localization Utility / Interplanetary Polyglot**
+  (`xen.LocalizationUtility`) — register a new language from one `Translation.xml`.
+  No game files needed to build.
+- **Translation:** machine-assisted first pass (clean-room, no third-party
+  translation text reused), then a **Slovak-speaking human review pass**. Phased by
+  category so partial releases are usable: **UI/menus → dialogue/text walls →
+  ship log**.
+- **Scope:** the single ~896 KB `Translation.xml` already contains base game + DLC
+  strings together, so scope is "everything," sequenced internally by category.
+
+## Phases
+
+### Phase 1 — Repo scaffold & docs ✅
+`README.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, `PLAN.md`, and MIT `LICENSE` in place.
+
+### Phase 2 — Mod skeleton ✅
+Created the OWML mod shell, modelled on
+[`shippy/outer-wilds-czech`](https://github.com/shippy/outer-wilds-czech):
+
+- `manifest.json` — `author: Homer`, `uniqueName: Homer.SlovakTranslation`,
+  `name`, `version`, `owmlVersion`, `dependencies: ["xen.LocalizationUtility"]`.
+- `ILocalizationAPI.cs` — interface copied from the utility.
+- `SlovakTranslation.cs` — `ModBehaviour` calling
+  `api.RegisterLanguage(this, "Slovenčina", "assets/Translation.xml")`.
+- `SlovakTranslation.csproj` / `.sln`, `.gitignore`, empty `assets/`.
+- Optional: GitHub/Gitea release workflow.
+
+### Phase 3 — Import English source ✅
+Imported the base English `Translation.xml` (896 KB, 2424 entries, keys == values)
+from the utility repo into `assets/`. This is the file to translate.
+
+> Build verified: `dotnet build -c Release` compiles against the `OWML` /
+> `OuterWildsGameLibs` NuGet packages (no game install needed) and stages a
+> loadable mod folder (`SlovakTranslation.dll` + `manifest.json` +
+> `default-config.json` + `assets/Translation.xml`) in `bin/`.
+
+### Phase 4 — Glossary 🚧
+First draft of `docs/glossary.md` in place: tone/register locked (informal *ty*),
+and SK renderings proposed for the proper nouns and recurring terms below. Rows
+marked `❓ review` still need the Slovak-speaking review pass to finalize.
+
+Write `docs/glossary.md` fixing SK renderings (or keep-in-English decisions) for
+proper nouns and recurring terms, e.g.: Nomai, Hearthian, the Eye / Eye of the
+Universe, Ash Twin Project, Vessel, Black Hole Forge, Quantum Moon, Sun Station,
+ship log, Nomai statue, Ember Twin, Ash Twin, Timber Hearth, Brittle Hollow,
+Giant's Deep, Dark Bramble, Interloper, Stranger (DLC), Owlk/"Owlks" (DLC).
+Decide tone/register (informal *ty* vs. formal) and lock it here.
+
+### Phase 5 — Translate `<value>` entries ✅ (machine-assisted pass complete; human review pending)
+Machine-assisted pass → human review, by category (UI/menus → dialogue → ship log),
+base + DLC. Preserve all `&lt;color=…&gt;`/`&lt;i&gt;` markup, entities, and speaker
+prefixes. Track progress and any hard-to-translate lines here or in issues.
+
+**All three categories now have a complete first-pass translation** (UI 814,
+ship log 483, dialogue 2423). Whole-file English-leak scan: 0. Remaining work is
+the **Slovak-speaking human review pass** (puns, register, Nomai text-wall length,
+the review-flagged lines noted per batch).
+
+Progress by category (source has 3 sections — the flat `<entry>` list = dialogue/
+text walls, `<table_shipLog>` = ship log, `<table_ui>` = UI/menus):
+
+- **UI/menus (`<table_ui>`, 814 entries) — ✅ machine-assisted first pass done,
+  place-name terms reviewed & locked.** All values translated; integer `<key>`
+  IDs untouched; `\n`, `&lt;!&gt;` input-prompt tokens, `&lt;Profile Name&gt;`
+  placeholder, and color/italic markup preserved; XML re-verified well-formed.
+  Casing mirrors the source (ALL-CAPS button labels stay caps). A consistency
+  re-pass applied the locked glossary terms (Scout → *Skaut*, Signalscope →
+  *Signáloskop*, Timber Hearth → *Drevený kozub*, Ash/Ember Twin → *Dvojča
+  Popolu / Dvojča Uhlíka*, etc.). Remaining: a general Slovak review of the
+  non-proper-noun phrasings.
+- **Ship log (`<table_shipLog>`, 483 entries) — ✅ machine-assisted first pass done.**
+  All values translated (location names + rumor/fact entries); string `<key>`
+  lookups untouched; plain text (no markup). Narrator voice locked to masculine;
+  ship-log place names locked in the glossary (§3, §5b). XML re-verified
+  well-formed; mod builds. **Still needs the Slovak review pass.**
+- **Dialogue / text walls (flat `<entry>` list, 2423 entries) — ✅ COMPLETE.**
+  Every `<value>` is translated; the only remaining `value==key` entries are
+  proper names (kept in English), the panic-scream onomatopoeia, sick-noises,
+  Kickstarter backer credits, and the ASCII-art easter eggs — all intentional.
+  A whole-file English-leak heuristic (English function-words present, no Slovak
+  diacritics/markers) reports **0** leaks in the flat list, ship log, and UI.
+  Batched by **content type** (not planet — the flat list is asset-ID ordered):
+  Nomai lore/wall-text (by speaker) → Hearthian villagers → travelers →
+  player/system/DLC. Preserve `&lt;color=…&gt;`/`&lt;i&gt;`/`&lt;size=…&gt;` markup,
+  template tokens (`&lt;Pause/&gt;`, `&lt;TimeMinutes&gt;`, `&lt;NbTimeloops&gt;`,
+  `&lt;…SinceRedGiant&gt;`), `\n`, speaker prefixes, and per-entry whitespace.
+  - **Batch 1 — Solanum (70 lines) ✅** — Quantum Moon pilgrim: astronomy-museum
+    walls, Tower of Quantum Knowledge / Quantum Shrine, Eye philosophy. Feminine
+    voice. Applied by key; XML re-verified; builds.
+  - **Batch 2 — Vessel / warp-core debate (29 lines) ✅** — the Nomai clan
+    debating how to obtain the advanced warp core for the Ash Twin Project
+    (Oeno, Clary, Poke, Idaea, Avens, Cassava, Spire, Mitis) + Poke's personal
+    reflections + the Vessel's escape-pod launch / crash computer log. Poke &
+    Clary feminine, Annona masculine.
+  - **Batch 3 — Orbital Probe Cannon (50 lines) ✅** — Construction Yard cyclones
+    (Conoy, Spire, Cassava), building/firing the cannon (Cassava, Daz, Mallow,
+    Privet, Avens, Yarrow), the "let's send a probe" decision, and the cannon's
+    damage-report / launch-log system text. Avens masc, Ramie fem. Preserved
+    `&lt;TimeMinutes&gt;`/`&lt;TimeSeconds&gt;` tokens and the "on the other
+    appendage" Nomai joke.
+  - **Batch 4 — Ash Twin Project warp mechanism (53 lines) ✅** — warp-tower
+    alignment lore, White Hole Station tutorial, tower designs, ore/shell
+    construction, warp-core-source debate (Yarrow, Clary, Poke, Root, Phlox,
+    Oeno, Cycad, Annona, Ramie, Ilex). Pye fem, Plume masc. (Sun Station debate,
+    firing, failure + memory statues still to come.)
+  - **Batch 5 — Sun Station + memory statues (61 lines) ✅** — the Sun Station
+    build debate (Idaea/Pye/Ramie/Poke), Pye's supernova/"gas" humor, the firing
+    orders, the failure aftermath, and the memory statues + masks (Phlox, Daz,
+    Yarrow, Ramie, Oeno, Root). Idaea masc. Preserved the 1304 countdown tokens
+    (`&lt;RemainingMinutes&gt;`…) + `\n` and `&lt;TimeMinutes&gt;`/`&lt;TimeSeconds&gt;`.
+  - **Batch 6 — High Energy Lab (42 lines) ✅** — the negative-time-interval
+    experiments (Pye & Ramie), the white/black-hole-core setup, the 22-minute
+    hypothesis, and the High Energy Lab / Sunless City labels + distance markers.
+    Kept Pye/Ramie's "gas / aeriform" state-of-matter puns (flagged for review)
+    and Conoy's "lose his head" joke.
+  - **Batch 7 — Quantum caves (48 lines) ✅** — the quantum shard, the Quantum
+    Moon locator, the wandering-rock / quantum-travel experiments, Coleus's
+    disappearance and the search for him, and the Ember Twin shelter-path
+    directions (Coleus, Melorae, Bur, Annona, Thatch, Plume). Coleus/Melorae
+    masc. Kept the pre-discovery moon names (*putujúci / prízračný mesiac*) and
+    Melorae's "my sedimentary friend" geologist humor.
+  - **Batch 8 — Interloper shuttle + warp-tower scroll-wall (43 lines) ✅** — the
+    comet crew discovering the exotic/ghost matter in the ruptured stone (Pye,
+    Poke, Clary — all feminine; Poke & Clary are sisters), plus the leftover
+    White Hole Station / warp-tower scroll-wall lines that finish the batch-4
+    conversations (Clary/Poke/Root/Yarrow, incl. the Clary–Yarrow romance).
+  - **Batch 9 — Brittle Hollow / Escape Pod 1 clan saga (94 lines) ✅** — the
+    crash, the volcanic-moon danger, quantum-grove wandering trees/shard, the
+    Eye-signal locator, the migration to the northern glacier, and the loss of
+    loved ones (Plume, Thatch, Filix, Lami, Annona, Rhus, Ilex, Spire, Coleus,
+    Cassava, Kousa). Filix & Melorae revealed **feminine** ("her note", "Aunt
+    Melorae") — corrected batch 7's Melorae lines to feminine here.
+  - **Batch 11 — final Nomai batch (113 lines) ✅ — ALL NOMAI DIALOGUE DONE.**
+    The warp-window details, mining-sites/native-life (Coleus/Cycad/Oeno), the
+    new-Vessel debate (Ilex), the memory-statue philosophy (Phlox/Daz/Cassava),
+    the probe-cannon-origin / Eye-search debate (Avens/Cassava/Plume), the
+    Sun Station "mission" humor (Idaea), the anglerfish-fossil study
+    (Melorae/Coleus), and scattered scroll-wall leftovers. Privet revealed
+    **feminine** ("her brother") — corrected her one masculine line in batch 3.
+    **Every speaker-prefixed Nomai line is now translated.**
+  - **Batch 10 — Bells scrolls + kids' game + Escall's clan history (87 lines) ✅**
+    — the Tower of Quantum Knowledge pilgrimage scrolls (Bells), the Fossil Fish
+    Cave anglerfish blindfold game (Laevi/Taget/Ilex/Lami), and the ancient
+    "Disappearance of Escall" myth + Escape Pod 3 / Secca–Din (Canna, Bromi,
+    Clem, Hyssop, Neem, Escall, Filix, Din). Distant place names translated
+    (*Súmračná galaxia*, *Čierna skala*, *Jasná iskra*) and flagged.
+  - **Nomai dialogue: ✅ complete.** Remaining dialogue is the ~1725
+    Hearthian/player lines (villagers, the travelers, player-facing/system text).
+  - **Hearthian villagers — 🚧 started.**
+    - **Batch 12 — Museum + Slate (100 lines) ✅** — the museum signs/exhibits
+      and Slate the shipbuilder's whole launch-day conversation (ship, launch
+      codes, ship-log markers, marshmallows, his jabs). First use of **mláďa**
+      (Hatchling). Player addressed as *ty*; "Stars above" → *Hviezdy nad nami*;
+      Hearthian names kept (Slate, Hornfels, Gossan, Hal, Mica).
+    - **Batch 13 — Hal + Gossan + Hornfels (204 lines) ✅** — the rest of launch
+      day: Hal (translator inventor, the new Nomai statue), Gossan (flight coach,
+      zero-g training), and Hornfels (curator, launch codes, the travelers'
+      whereabouts, Feldspar, and his redshift "Observations" exhibit on the
+      expanding universe). "Stars above" → *Hviezdy nad nami*; translator tool →
+      *prekladač*; preserved `&lt;Pause&gt;`/`&lt;Pause/&gt;`/`&lt;color=grey&gt;` and `\n\n`.
+      The village kids (Tephra, Galena, Marl, Rutile…) and other NPCs remain.
+  - **⚠️ Scope correction (batch 17):** the earlier line-counts under-counted.
+    A proper scan (a value is untranslated iff it's a suffix of its ID-prefixed
+    key — e.g. key `MeetGabbro3F…` / value `…`) shows **~1090 dialogue lines
+    still untranslated**, not the ~730 previously estimated. Remaining blocks
+    (asset-ID ranges): player-self/duplicate convo (169–308, 140), **Gabbro
+    366–575 ✅**, Feldspar/Chert HUD signs (800–842, 1329–1380, 1822–1840),
+    village kids (1459–1752, ~260), Chert campsite (1975–2283, 308), Signalscope
+    kid + misc (2360–2421, 59), plus generic traveler responses interleaved.
+  - **The travelers — 🚧 started** (Gabbro, Riebeck, Feldspar, Esker, Chert; each a
+    big campsite conversation).
+    - **Batch 17 — Gabbro (204 lines) ✅** — the laid-back "time buddy" on
+      Giant's Deep (*Obrova hlbina*): his surfer-philosopher patter about the
+      time loop, the memory statues, Statue Island (*Ostrov sôch*, his coinage),
+      the Orbital Probe Cannon breaking, his quantum poem/art, the meditation
+      mini-lesson, and the deep-space-satellite ("Ol' Spacey" → **Vesmírko**)
+      inspection log. Masculine; player as *ty*; Hornfels masculine (per existing
+      SK). Preserved `&lt;i&gt;`/`&lt;Pause&gt;` markup and the many repeated
+      menu blocks. **Flag for review:** the "Ol'"-is-affectionate line (465)
+      references old-ness while the nickname *Vesmírko* carries affection via
+      diminutive instead — minor disconnect. Remaining travelers: Chert (308),
+      Esker, Riebeck/Feldspar leftovers.
+  - **Player / self dialogue — 🚧 started.**
+    - **Batch 18 — the "two of you" black-hole duplicate convo (125 lines) ✅**
+      — the meeting between the two copies of the player created by the
+      black-hole/white-hole jump (Ash Twin Project): the confused-memories
+      banter, the dating jokes (Gossan/Slate, "Gossan's eye"), the "are you a
+      figment of my imagination" bit, the *"we are the Feldspar of weird time
+      stuff"* line, the panic-attack screaming sequence, and the post-intro
+      bragging menu (first solo trip, Sun-Station landing, "even Riebeck
+      survived their first launch"). Both speakers are the player → **masculine**;
+      they address each other as *ty*. The 15 pure-scream onomatopoeia lines
+      (AAAH, with `&lt;b&gt;`/`&lt;size=50&gt;` markup) left verbatim as
+      language-neutral. Preserved `&lt;i&gt;`/`&lt;b&gt;`/`&lt;Pause/&gt;`/`&lt;pause&gt;`
+      markup and `\\n\\n`.
+  - **Final dialogue sweep (batches 19–22) — ✅ done in parallel (subagents +
+    main), 770 + 22 lines.** The rest of the flat list, produced by three
+    translator subagents (each writing a JSON of translations, applied
+    race-free in the main thread) plus a large main-thread block:
+    - **Batch 19 — Hearthian village kids / villagers (271 lines) ✅** — Marl,
+      Tephra, Galena, Rutile, Tuff (the sick miner), Spinel, Arkose, Gneiss,
+      Porphy (sap-wine maker), Mica, the model-rocket kid, hide-and-seek, mayor
+      Rutile, the ghost-matter kids. Player as *mláďa*; casual kid register.
+    - **Batch 20 — Chert + Esker + Feldspar's jellyfish journal + Gabbro extras
+      (359 lines) ✅** — Chert the jittery astronomer on the *Presýpacie
+      dvojčatá* (star charts, supernovae, his end-of-universe breakdown, the
+      stargazing campfire finale), **Esker**'s lonely *Mesačná základňa* on the
+      *Skalka*, Feldspar's jellyfish tasting notes, and Gabbro's statue/"I died"
+      variant conversations + band-reunion ending. Also the Ember-Twin research
+      signs, Esker's Signáloskop log, and Gneiss the instrument-maker.
+    - **Batch 21 — signs, Signalscope kid, endgame + Nomai-writing signs (138
+      lines) ✅** — Giant's-Deep HUD/observation signs, the Signalscope-kid
+      endgame scene, the credits/epitaph signs (backer names kept), and the
+      museum Nomai-writing exhibit signs. ASCII-art easter eggs left as art
+      (only embedded words like LOADING→*NAČÍTAVA SA* translated).
+    - **Batch 22 — straggler sweep + consistency (22 lines) ✅** — a whole-file
+      English-heuristic scan caught 22 lines the *suffix-of-key* detector missed
+      (curly-vs-straight-quote drift between key and value: Gabbro "bright flash"
+      variants, the sap-wine labels, the ghost-matter kids' Signáloskop game, two
+      museum signs, the ATP **masks data-readout** at idx 1964, Tektite's scout
+      note). **Detection lesson:** "value is a suffix of its ID-prefixed key" is
+      necessary but not sufficient — always follow up with an English-word / no-
+      Slovak-diacritic heuristic to catch copied-but-drifted values.
+    - **Consistency fixes this pass:** Hollow's Lantern → **Lampáš** (not
+      *Dutinin lampáš*; glossary note added), ghost matter → **prízračná hmota**
+      (was one *duchová hmota*), Hanging City → **Visuté mesto** (was *Visiace*).
+  - **Toolchain:** installed `dotnet-sdk` (10.0.110) locally; `dotnet build -c
+    Release` now **succeeds** (0 warnings/errors) and stages the loadable mod
+    folder in `bin/Release/` (DLL + manifest + config + assets/Translation.xml).
+  - **Batch 14 — Feldspar (120 lines) ✅** — the boastful crashed ace in Dark
+      Bramble (his crash tale, the anglerfish skeleton camp, the "space is
+      bigger inside the seeds" theory). Masculine; heavy on *mláďa*; kept his
+      swagger. Remaining travelers: Gabbro (~213), Riebeck (~125), Chert (~150),
+      Esker (~160).
+    - **Batch 15 — Riebeck (69 lines) ✅** — the anxious, stammering archaeologist
+      on Brittle Hollow: loves the Nomai ruins (the Hanging City), terrified of
+      the "you-know-what" (black hole). Masculine; timid *ehm/uf* voice; kept the
+      `&lt;size=20&gt;` shrinking-text asides. (His planet's HUD labels + the museum
+      star/skeleton exhibits interleaved in this range are deferred to their own
+      batches.) Remaining travelers: Gabbro (~213), Chert (~150), Esker (~160).
+  - **Batch 16 — Nomai shrines + system/HUD text & location signs (98 lines) ✅**
+    — a sweep of the player-facing/system and Nomai-shrine text interleaved
+    through the flat list that earlier speaker-based batches skipped: the
+    **Eye Shrine** and **Quantum Shrine** wall-text (the *Oko vesmíru* signal
+    philosophy Q&A), the **Tower of Quantum Knowledge** trial/pilgrimage lines
+    ("Seek the wandering arch", quantum-imaging congratulations), the Brittle
+    Hollow **location signs** (districts + directional `\\n(sever/juh/…​ N m)`
+    markers — *Visuté mesto*, *Kováreň čiernych dier*, *Veža kvantového
+    poznania*, etc.), the **Escape Pod 2/3 flightlogs** + cannon/probe/Sun-tower
+    system readouts (`&lt;NbTimeloops&gt;`, `&lt;TimeMinutes&gt;`,
+    `&lt;MinutesSinceRedGiant&gt;` tokens preserved), and scattered UI labels
+    (RECORDING → *NAHRÁVANIE*, warnings/verdicts, "the Prisoner" → *Väzeň*).
+    Directions localized (north→sever, below→dole, left→vľavo…); "281,042" →
+    *281 042*. Left the two ASCII-art easter eggs (LOADING/QR) unchanged. XML
+    re-verified well-formed. **Only remaining key==value entries are the 22
+    Hearthian/Nomai character names (kept in English) + those 2 art blocks.**
+
+Terminology change (applied file-wide): **Black Hole Forge → Kováreň čiernych
+dier** (was *Zlieváreň čiernej diery*) — 15 occurrences across ship log + dialogue.
+
+### Phase 6 — Diacritic / font check ⬜
+Verify the stock game font renders all Slovak glyphs
+(á ä č ď é í ĺ ľ ň ó ô ŕ š ť ú ý ž). Only if any are missing: build a font asset
+bundle in **Unity 2019.4.27f1** and wire `api.AddLanguageFont(...)`.
+
+### Phase 7 — Build & in-game test ⬜
+**Prerequisite:** install *Outer Wilds* + Outer Wilds Mod Manager + OWML (none are
+on this machine yet). Then `dotnet build`, load via the Mod Manager, select
+Slovenčina, and verify menus, dialogue, and ship log render correctly.
+
+### Phase 8 — Release ⬜
+Tag a Gitea release; optionally submit to the Outer Wilds mod database so the mod
+appears in the Mod Manager for everyone.
+
+## Open items / risks
+
+- **Font coverage** for Slovak-specific glyphs (ľ ĺ ŕ ô ä) is unverified until
+  in-game testing (Phase 6/7).
+- **Translation volume is the real cost** — ~896 KB of source text. A
+  Slovak-speaking review pass is essential, especially for DLC/dialogue nuance,
+  puns, and Nomai text-wall length constraints.
+- **In-game testing is blocked** until the game + Mod Manager are installed locally.
+- Confirm the tone/register decision (Phase 4) early — reworking it later is costly.

-# Outer-Wilds-SK-Translation-Mod
+# Outer Wilds — Slovenský preklad / Slovak Translation Mod
 
+> **Neoficiálny slovenský preklad hry Outer Wilds** (základná hra + rozšírenie
+> *Echoes of the Eye*). Pridáva do hry jazyk **Slovenčina**.
+>
+> *An unofficial Slovak (slovenčina) translation mod for Outer Wilds, covering
+> the base game and the Echoes of the Eye DLC.*
+
+**Stav / Status:** 🚧 **Work in progress** — the mod scaffold and translation are
+being built. See [`PLAN.md`](PLAN.md) for the roadmap.
+
+Outer Wilds officially ships in 12 languages; Slovak is not one of them. This mod
+adds it as a new selectable language using the community localization framework —
+no changes to the game's own files are required.
+
+---
+
+## How it works
+
+The mod is a small [OWML](https://github.com/ow-mods/owml) mod that registers a
+new language through **[Interplanetary Polyglot / Localization Utility](https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/interplanetarypolyglot/)**
+(`xen.LocalizationUtility`). All translated text lives in a single
+`assets/Translation.xml`; the utility swaps the game's strings for the Slovak ones
+at runtime.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Install the **[Outer Wilds Mod Manager](https://outerwildsmods.com/mod-manager/)**.
+2. Install this mod through the Mod Manager. Its dependency **Interplanetary
+   Polyglot** (`xen.LocalizationUtility`) will be pulled in automatically.
+3. Launch the game via the Mod Manager.
+4. In **Settings → Language**, choose **Slovenčina**.
+   - Tip: the optional [Language Swap](https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/languageswap/)
+     mod lets you switch language in-game with `Ctrl+L`.
+
+> Until the first release is published, the mod is not yet in the Mod Manager
+> database — see [`PLAN.md`](PLAN.md) for how to build it from source.
+
+## Contributing / Prispievanie
+
+Translation fixes are very welcome — the goal is natural, consistent Slovak.
+
+- **Report** mistranslations or awkward phrasing as an issue.
+- **Edit** only the `<value>` of each entry in `assets/Translation.xml`.
+  **Never change the `<key>`** — it is the English identifier the game matches on.
+- Preserve all inline formatting exactly, e.g. `&lt;color=orange&gt;…&lt;/color&gt;`,
+  `&lt;i&gt;`, and speaker prefixes like `POKE:`.
+- Follow the terminology in `docs/glossary.md` so names (Nomai, the Eye, Ash Twin
+  Project, …) stay consistent across the whole game.
+
+See [`CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md) for the full conventions and repo layout.

+# Glossary / Slovník — Outer Wilds SK
+
+Fixed Slovak renderings for proper nouns and recurring terms, so names stay
+**identical everywhere** in `assets/Translation.xml`. Follow this file when
+translating; propose changes here (not ad-hoc in the XML).
+
+> **Status:** place names & proper nouns reviewed and **locked** (2026-07-20,
+> the "go risky" pass — planet names are translated, not kept in English). Rows
+> still marked `❓ review` need the Slovak-speaking review pass before they are
+> final; `🔒 locked` rows are settled unless there's a strong reason. The UI/menus
+> translation in `Translation.xml` has been re-passed to match the locked terms.
+
+---
+
+## 0. Tone & register (locked)
+
+- **Address the player informally — *ty*, not *vy*.** Outer Wilds has a warm,
+  around-the-campfire tone; the Hearthians are your friends. Use *ty* / informal
+  imperatives (e.g. *"Pozri sa"*, not *"Pozrite sa"*) throughout menus, prompts,
+  and dialogue.
+- **UI casing mirrors the source.** The game bakes capitalization into the
+  strings (many buttons are ALL-CAPS in the data), so ALL-CAPS English → ALL-CAPS
+  Slovak; otherwise sentence case. Fixed proper names (Skaut, Signáloskop, Dvojča
+  Popolu, …) keep the capitalization given in this glossary.
+- **Keep the source's voice per speaker.** Nomai text is formal and precise;
+  Hearthian dialogue is casual. Register can shift by *speaker*, but the
+  player is always addressed as *ty*.
+- **Diacritics always** — á ä č ď é í ĺ ľ ň ó ô ŕ š ť ú ý ž. Never strip them.
+- **Narrator gender (locked):** the player-character is canonically genderless, but
+  Slovak past tense forces a gender. Use **masculine** for the player's first-person
+  log/dialogue voice (*Našiel som*, *Videl som*, *Vypustil som*). Named characters
+  take their English gender where given (**Solanum** = feminine; **Coleus** =
+  masculine); the singular-*they* travelers (Riebeck, Feldspar, Gabbro, Esker,
+  Chert) default to **masculine**.
+
+## 1. General rules
+
+- **Never edit `<key>`.** Translate only `<value>`. (See `CLAUDE.md`.)
+- **Preserve inline markup verbatim:** `&lt;color=…&gt;…&lt;/color&gt;`,
+  `&lt;i&gt;…&lt;/i&gt;`, entities `&lt; &gt; &amp;`. Translate the words, keep
+  the tags and the exact color names (`lightblue`, `orange`, …).
+- **Keep speaker prefixes verbatim:** `POKE:`, `CLARY:`, `SOLANUM:`, etc. — do
+  not translate or reorder the label.
+- **Declension:** Slovak inflects. A glossary entry gives the base (nominative)
+  form; decline it naturally in context (*na Drevenom kozube*, *z Temného tŕnia*,
+  *do Krehkej dutiny*). Keep the **stem/spelling** from this table so
+  search-and-replace stays reliable. **Nomai** is the one exception — see below.
+- **Brand / title names stay in English (verbatim):** the game title **Outer
+  Wilds**, the space program **Outer Wilds Ventures**, and "the Outer Wilds" on
+  the *Planetary Chart* poster. They're the actual named brand in the game (like
+  a company name — you wouldn't translate "SpaceX"). Inflect the *surrounding*
+  Slovak, not the name: *v hre Outer Wilds*, *podporuješ Outer Wilds Ventures*.
+- **Character names are kept in English** (they're geology terms — Hornfels,
+  Slate, Gabbro, Riebeck, Feldspar, Chert, Esker, Hal, Gossan, Marl, Tuff,
+  Tephra, Galena, Moraine, Rutile, Spinel, Mica, Porphy, Arkose…). Decline
+  where natural: *Gabbrovi*, *s Riebeckom*, *Hala*.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Peoples & beings
+
+| English | Slovak | Status | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Nomai (species & individual) | **Nomai** | 🔒 | **Indeclinable** — keep spelling *Nomai* in every case (sg. = pl.). It's an alien species name; leave it as-is. |
+| Hearthian(s) | **Kozubčan** (sg.), **Kozubčania** (pl.) | 🔒 | From *kozub* (→ Drevený kozub). Adj. *kozubčiansky*. |
+| the Owlks *(DLC, fan term)* | **Soví človek** (sg.), **Soví ľudia** (pl.) | 🔒 | The game never names them; "owl-people". |
+| Hatchling *(the player; a young Hearthian)* | **mláďa** (neuter) | 🔒 | Affectionate address from other Hearthians *and* a common noun. Neuter → **gender-neutral** (fits the genderless protagonist). Pl. *mláďatá* (*odkedy sme boli mláďatá*); address *"Jasné, mláďa!"*. |
+
+## 3. Celestial bodies & places
+
+Decision (locked, "go risky"): **place names are translated**, including the home
+planet and moons — not kept in English.

+| The Attlerock (moon) | **Skalka** | 🔒 | Diminutive of *skala* — mirrors the "a little rock" pun. |
+| Brittle Hollow | **Krehká dutina** | 🔒 | |
+| Hollow's Lantern (moon) | **Lampáš** | 🔒 | Just **Lampáš** — do **not** form a possessive from *Krehká dutina* (never *Dutinin lampáš*). Decline the noun itself: *na Lampáši*, *k Lampášu*. |
+| Hourglass Twins | **Presýpacie dvojčatá** | 🔒 | Ember + Ash together. |
+| Ember Twin | **Dvojča Uhlíka** | 🔒 | Matched pair with *Dvojča Popolu* (uhlík ↔ popol). |
+| Ash Twin | **Dvojča Popolu** | 🔒 | Drives *Projekt Dvojčaťa Popolu* (§4). |
+| Giant's Deep | **Obrova hlbina** | 🔒 | |
+| Dark Bramble | **Temné tŕnie** | 🔒 | *bramble* = tŕnie. |
+| The Interloper (comet) | **Votrelec** | 🔒 | |
+| Quantum Moon | **Kvantový mesiac** | 🔒 | |
+| White Hole / Black Hole | **biela diera / čierna diera** | 🔒 | Lowercase (common noun). |
+| Black Hole Forge | **Kováreň čiernych dier** | 🔒 | Forge/smithy of the black holes. Note the **plural** *čiernych dier*. Decline: gen *Kovárne*, loc *Kovárni*. (Superseded earlier *Zlieváreň čiernej diery*.) |
+| The Stranger *(DLC)* | **Cudzinec** | 🔒 | |
+| Echoes of the Eye *(DLC title)* | **Ozveny Oka** | ❓ | Translate in prose; may keep English as a store/product title. |

+| Eye Signal | **signál Oka** | 🔒 | |
+| Ash Twin Project | **Projekt Dvojčaťa Popolu** | 🔒 | Matches *Dvojča Popolu* (§3). |

+
+Named places and recurring terms from the ship log. Descriptive location names not
+listed here are translated literally (River Lowlands → *Riečne nížiny*, Northern
+Glacier → *Severný ľadovec*, Fire Chamber → *Ohňová komora*, …).
+
+| English | Slovak | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| The Hanging City | **Visuté mesto** | Brittle Hollow's Nomai city. |
+| The Sunless City | **Bezslnečné mesto** | Ember Twin's Nomai city. |
+| Orbital Probe Cannon | **Orbitálne delo sondy** | Modules: *Riadiaci / Štartovací modul*, *Modul sledovania sondy*. |
+| Cinder Isles *(DLC)* | **Vyhorené ostrovy** | |

+| Nomai character names | *kept in English* | Solanum, Poke, Clary, Coleus, Melorae, Cassava, Yarrow, Pye, Conoy, Bells, … Decline the surrounding Slovak, not the name. |
+
+**Character genders** (from English pronoun cues; drives Slovak verb/possessive
+gender): **feminine** — Solanum, Poke, Clary (Poke's sister), Ramie, Pye, Filix
+("her note"), Melorae ("Aunt Melorae"), Privet ("her brother"). **masculine** —
+Annona, Coleus, Avens (Daz's brother), Plume (has a brother). Everyone else defaults to **masculine**
+until an English cue says otherwise.
+
+**Hearthian genders (cross-checked against the Czech mod, 2026-07-20).** Outer
+Wilds uses *they/them* for all Hearthians, so we defaulted **masculine** and
+verified against `shippy/outer-wilds-czech` (Czech is also grammatically
+gendered). Confirmed **masculine**: Chert, Esker, Gabbro, Riebeck, Feldspar,
+Gneiss, Marl, Mica, Spinel, Tektite, Tuff, Hornfels, Hal, Gossan, Slate.
+Corrected to **feminine** (Czech + English cues): **Arkose** (the ghost-matter
+kid — *"Slyšela jsem"*), **Porphy** (the sap-wine maker — *"dolila… dávku"*),
+and the **hide-and-seek kid** at idx 1627 (*"Chtěla jsem… otravná"*). **Filix**
+stays **feminine** (English "her note") even though the Czech mod rendered her
+masculine — English canon wins. Undetermined (no gendered self-reference either
+side; left masculine): Galena, Rutile, Tephra, Moraine. (Possessive of names in *-a*: *Annonov/-a/-o*,
+*Cassavov/-a/-o*, e.g. *Cassavovo Stavenisko*.) **Note:** Melorae was initially
+translated masculine in batch 7, then corrected to feminine once "Aunt Melorae"
+surfaced.
+
+**Nomai voice tics:** "My gratitude" (their formal thanks) → **Moja vďaka**;
+"on the other appendage" (a hand-joke — Nomai have appendages, not hands) →
+**Na druhej končatine**. Keep this dry, precise, courteous register for Nomai.
+
+## 6. Resolved decisions (2026-07-20 review)
+
+1. **Planet names → translated** (not kept in English). ✅
+2. **Nomai → indeclinable**, kept as-is (alien species name). ✅
+3. **UI length** — not a concern: the text display supports variable lengths. ✅
+4. **DLC titles** — translate in prose (*Ozveny Oka*, *Cudzinec*); keep English
+   only where a string functions as a store/product title. ✅ (`Echoes of the Eye`
+   the DLC title still `❓` in §3 for that reason.)
+
+## 7. Still open
+
+- **`Twilight Twin`** (Nomai dialogue, warp-tower lines) — rendered provisionally as
+  *Súmračné dvojča*. Unusual term; confirm meaning/rendering in review.
+- **`Echoes of the Eye`** as a product/menu title — translate everywhere, or keep
+  English on title/store strings? (Prose already uses *Ozveny Oka*.)
+- Terms that will surface in the **dialogue** and **ship log** phases and aren't
+  fixed yet: the Vessel interior locations, the Hanging City, the Sunless City,
+  the High Energy Lab, the Quantum Shrine, DLC props (Slide Reel → *Kotúč
+  diapozitívov*, Vision Torch → *Fakľa vízií*, the Artifact → *Artefakt*), etc.
+  I'll raise these as we hit each category.

+# Review notes — things to check in the Slovak human review pass
+
+Consolidated list of wordplay, coined terms, gender guesses, and register calls
+that the machine-assisted first pass flagged. Work through these with a
+Slovak-speaking eye. Grouped by type; `idx` = position in the flat `<entry>`
+list where useful. See [`glossary.md`](glossary.md) and [`../PLAN.md`](../PLAN.md)
+for the locked terms and per-batch context.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Puns & wordplay (hardest to get right)
+
+| Where | English | Current SK | Note |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Gabbro, satellite (idx ~460–466) | "Ol' Spacey" (the deep-space satellite; "Ol'" = affectionate "old") | **Vesmírko** | Nickname folded to a diminutive that carries affection via form, not oldness. Line 465 ("'Ol'' is more a term of affection") therefore explains *starký/old* while the name is *Vesmírko* — mild disconnect. Consider a nickname that keeps the "old" beat, e.g. *Starký* / *Vesmírko starký*. |
+| Gabbro (idx 1353) | "you just got **Feldsparred**" | *...práve ťa **Feldsparovalo*** | Invented verb from a name; keep or rework. |
+| Gabbro (idx 399 etc.) | "**Statue Island** ...Get it?" (it's the *island* with the *statue*) | **Ostrov sôch** ...Chápeš? | The "get it?" gag barely lands in SK since the wordplay is thin even in EN. OK, but confirm. |
+| Chert (idx 1979) | "Keep **an eye or four** on the stars" (Hearthians have >2 eyes) | *Maj oko, aj štyri, na hviezdach* | ✅ reworded per review (was *Maj oči — pokojne aj štyri —*). |
+| Player self (idx 252) | "we are the **Feldspar** of weird time stuff" | *sme **Feldsparom** čudných časových vecí* | Idiom "the X of Y"; fine but review. |
+| Ghost-matter kid (idx 1702) | "All **pew pew pew**!" | *Také **pyu pyu pyu**!* | Onomatopoeia choice. |
+| Feldspar note (idx 1350) | "Hornfels, **ya burnt marshmallow**" (insult) | *Hornfels, ty **pripálený marshmallow*** | Insult + the kept loanword *marshmallow* (see §2). |
+| Porphy, sap wine (idx 1476, 1478, 1490) | "**The Good Stuff**"; bottles labeled "structural collapse" / "house fire" | **Tá Dobrota** (standardized; was mixed *To Pravé*/*Tá Dobrota*); „zrútenie konštrukcie" / „požiar domu" | Bar/booze humor; Porphy is **feminine** (§3). |
+| Chert (idx 1994) | "On a **scale of one to dead**, I'd give it a seven or eight" | *Na škále **od jeden po smrť**...* | Keep the deadpan. |
+| Feldspar jellyfish journal (idx 2181) | "Boring crashes: 0 (a personal best!)" / "entry #... 'not 1'" | translated literally | Feldspar's swagger; check voice. |
+| Fishing rhymes (idx 1540, 1567, 1576) | fishing rhyme/song/tune couplets (the 3rd deliberately fails to rhyme) | rendered **loosely to keep a rhyme** | ✅ 1567 reworked to *…ech, asi mi nesedí táto **návnadička*** (rhymes *pesnička/návnadička*, keeps "bait is wrong"). 1576 intentionally drops the rhyme (matches the EN joke). |
+| Nomai, Pye/Ramie (batch 5–6) | "gas / aeriform" state-of-matter puns; Pye's supernova/"gas" humor | flagged in batch notes | Physics/gas double meaning — verify it survives. |
+| Nomai, Conoy (batch 6) | "lose his head" joke | flagged | Idiom. |
+| Nomai, Melorae (batch 7) | "my **sedimentary** friend" (geologist pun) | flagged | Rock pun on "sedentary". |
+| Nomai idiom (glossary) | "on the other **appendage**" (hand-joke; Nomai have appendages) | **Na druhej končatine** | Locked, but re-read in context. |
+| Idaea (batch 11) | Sun Station "mission" humor | flagged | Deadpan Nomai humor. |
+
+**Character names are themselves geology/rock puns** (Slate, Feldspar, Gabbro,
+Chert, Gneiss, Tuff, Tephra, Porphy, Arkose, Mica, Moraine, Hornfels, …) — kept
+in English by design (see glossary §1). No action unless we ever localize names.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Coined / provisional terms (no prior canon — confirm rendering)
+
+| English | Current SK | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| Ol' Spacey | **Vesmírko** | provisional (see §1) |
+| Statue Island (Gabbro's coinage) | **Ostrov sôch** | provisional |
+| Lunar Outpost (Esker's, on the Attlerock) | **Mesačná základňa** | provisional |
+| Youngbark Crater | **Kráter Mladej kôry** | provisional (blockC) |
+| Quantum Grove Crater | **Kráter Kvantového hája** | provisional (blockC) |
+| The Good Stuff (sap wine) | **Tá Dobrota** | standardized this pass |
+| marshmallow | **marshmallow** (kept) | decide: keep loanword or *sladká pena*? Be consistent. |
+| Twilight Twin (Nomai warp-tower lines) | **Súmračné dvojča** | ❓ unusual term — confirm meaning/rendering |
+| Echoes of the Eye (DLC title) | **Ozveny Oka** in prose | ❓ keep EN on store/menu title strings? |
+| Distant Nomai places (batch 10) | **Súmračná galaxia**, **Čierna skala**, **Jasná iskra** | flagged |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Gender — cross-checked against the Czech mod ✅
+
+Outer Wilds uses **they/them for all Hearthians**; Slovak forces a gender, so the
+first pass **defaulted masculine**. We then cross-checked every gendered
+self-reference against `shippy/outer-wilds-czech` (Czech is also grammatically
+gendered) — only **3** disagreements surfaced across the whole file, now resolved:
+
+- **Arkose** (ghost-matter kid) → **corrected to feminine** (*Slyšela jsem*).
+- **Porphy** (sap-wine maker) → **corrected to feminine** (*dolila dávku*).
+- **Filix** — Czech has her masculine, but English says *"her note"*, so she
+  **stays feminine** (English canon wins).
+- Also flipped the **hide-and-seek kid** at idx 1627 to feminine (*Chtěla
+  jsem… otravná*).
+
+**Confirmed masculine** (Czech agrees): Chert, Esker, Gabbro, Riebeck, Feldspar,
+Gneiss, Marl, Mica, Spinel, Tektite, Tuff, Hornfels, Hal, Gossan, Slate.
+**Undetermined** (no gendered self-reference either side; left masculine): Galena,
+Rutile, Tephra, Moraine — worth a glance in-game but low-risk.
+**Locked female (EN cues):** Solanum, Poke, Clary, Ramie, Pye, Filix, Melorae,
+Privet. **Locked male:** Annona, Coleus, Avens, Plume, Idaea.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Register & length
+
+- **Nomai text walls** — keep the formal, precise, courteous voice; watch length
+  vs. the in-game panels (utility supports variable length, but very long walls
+  should stay tight).
+- **Chert's panic stammer** (idx 2029–2031, 2076–2077) — rendered as
+  *a-a-ale / d-d-dúfam / m-možno*. Check it reads as anxious, not broken.
+- **Kids' register** — playful, casual *ty*; player often *mláďa*. Make sure the
+  kid voices don't sound adult.
+- **Player self-talk** (the "two of you" convo, idx 169–308) — both speakers are
+  the player, masculine, mutual *ty*; screams left verbatim.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Left verbatim on purpose (not for translation)
+
+Panic-scream onomatopoeia (idx 174, 267–286), sick-noises (*Hurgh…*, idx
+1666/1685), shy-kid silences (`…`), Kickstarter backer credit **names** (idx
+2408–2415), and the ASCII-art easter eggs (idx 2416–2418, only embedded words
+like LOADING → *NAČÍTAVA SA* were translated). Leave these as-is.
