Hand the Crowdin files to a companion
A companion works the 3 operations your Crowdin account exposes. It can add a file to project and create a project, and every one of those waits on an approval card showing the file before it changes.
Open the file. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Crowdin afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a file until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Crowdin exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, 1 read and 2 writes. In practice that means it can add a file to project and create a project, and work across the files, projects and via machine translations.
The Crowdin API stops at Crowdin. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Where do the files come from?
1 of the 3 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can translate a via machine translation, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Crowdin's documentation.
The files are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the projects. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Crowdin admin becomes a queue you review.

Which files wait for your approval?
All 2 write operations wait for you.
A companion can add a file to project and create a project, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the file, the field and the new value before it lands in Crowdin.
Nothing in Crowdin is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the file exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Add File to Project
- Create Project
What does the recurring files pass look like?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Crowdin files pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The product and engineering playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the engineering admin, the Crowdin files sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
