Why

The Open a pull request card, its GitHub sign-in, and the errors main sends it were plain English in a translated window. This is the #625 batch of #622, which needed the catalog in main from #634.

What changes

  • The card (pull-request-destination.jsx) wraps every string. Sentences with a link or code in them use createInterpolateElement, with logins, branches and repository names passed in as elements so they are never read as markup. The failure messages are a function instead of a module-level constant.
  • Per-project text in project-type.cjs (cards.*) is getters, read when the card renders. Main's refusal with nothing linked used to splice the work item's label into a sentence; it is now cards.prNeedsWorkItem, one sentence per project type.
  • Main process: the sign-in errors in github-auth.cjs and the pull request errors in github-pr.cjs are wrapped, including the step labels passed to failure(), which the issue did not list. The "Trunk has moved" message uses _n, and a GitHub failure is composed with %1$s: %2$s%3$s so a translator can change the punctuation. GitHub's own reason and the bracketed diagnostic for GitHub support stay as they are.

Not wrapped, per #622: the pull request body and the default pull request title, because they leave the app.

How to test this

The new journeys cover the card in the pseudo-locale on both projects. Run them from the repository root on either platform:

npx playwright test --project=journeys tests/e2e/journeys/i18n.spec.js -g "pull request card"

Both fail without this change. The Core journey walks every state #625 lists: signed out, "Not now" and "Show this again", the device code, signed in with the form and its fold, a rate-limited failure, a dry run, and a pull request opened from a checkout behind trunk. The Gutenberg one walks signed out, signed in with the fold open, and the opened pull request, checking the words that are Gutenberg's own.

What the journeys cannot reach is a real GitHub. They stub every github:* handler, so the main-process errors never reach the screen in them. Unit tests in github-auth, github-pr and pr-stage cover those strings in the pseudo-locale instead. To see one on screen by hand (either platform, current head):

  1. From the repository root, run npx electron . --lang=en-XA.
  2. Open a Core site with a linked ticket and an edit, and click Review & submit changes.
  3. In Open a pull request, click Sign in with GitHub and finish in the browser.
    • Expected: every line of the card is accented and in brackets, apart from your login, your fork's name, the code and the branch.

What must not have happened: no English an English speaker sees has changed. The English journeys in open-pull-request.spec.js, review-changes.spec.js and pr-checkout.spec.js still pass with their exact strings.

Fixes #625. Part of #622. Follows #634.


Design decisions and alternatives considered
Review outcome (required — see AGENTS.md)

2 [fix here] · 1 [follow-up]. Both [fix here] findings are fixed; the follow-up is deferred (see Risks).

  • 🟡 The Gutenberg journey linked no issue, so it never showed the form, the fold or the loop-back. Fixed: it links one in the record and walks those states.

  • 🔵 No test showed the main-process strings or the stage labels come out translated. Fixed: pseudo-locale unit tests for the scope refusal, a composed failure(), the plural stale message and prStageLabel.

  • Style: three dead entries in the journey's THEIRS filter were removed.

  • Review: completed. Fresh agent context, head 11ef362 / base c34aa45. npm run lint clean, npm test 2002 pass / 0 fail, i18n and PR journeys 25 pass.

  • Since review: 11ef362 → ef457fd. The only change is the test fixes above, checked by the authoring session, not re-reviewed by a fresh context. src and tests lint clean, unit suite 2005 pass / 0 fail, i18n journeys 12 pass. The review did not run the journeys itself; it was read-only.

  • After Translate the Review & submit dialog #635 merged: ef457fd → 9559a1f (trunk merged from GitHub) → 012fca8 (trunk at e94f507 merged; i18n.spec.js resolved as trunk's file plus this PR's two tests, nothing else changed). Checked by the authoring session, not re-reviewed: src and tests lint clean, unit suite 2036 pass / 0 fail, i18n, open-pull-request, review-changes and pr-checkout journeys 31 pass.

Screenshots or recording

None. Nothing changes on screen in English, and the pseudo-locale journeys are the check for the translated state.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Wraps the Open a pull request card, its sign-in, the stage labels, the
per-project card text and the GitHub errors main sends it. The card text
in project-type.cjs becomes getters, and main's refusal with nothing
linked is one sentence per project type. Adds @wordpress/element for
createInterpolateElement, and a pseudo-locale journey for each state
of the card on Core and Gutenberg.
…s in the pseudo-locale

The Gutenberg journey had no issue linked, so it never showed the form,
the fold or the loop-back. It now links one in the record and walks
signed out, signed in with the fold open, and the opened pull request.
Unit tests pin the stage labels, the scope refusal, a composed GitHub
failure and the plural stale message in the pseudo-locale.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull-request flow now uses WordPress i18n helpers for GitHub authentication and pull-request messages, project-specific guidance, stage labels, and interface text. The changes add interpolation and singular/plural formatting while preserving the described outcomes and control flow. Unit tests and end-to-end journeys check pseudo-localized text across pull-request states.

Assessment against linked issues

Objective Addressed Explanation
Translate the pull-request destination, GitHub sign-in, and pull-request flow messages [#625] ✅
Make the listed project-specific cards.* fields translation getters [#625] ❓ The summaries confirm getters for pull-request copy, including prHow and prNeedsWorkItem, but do not identify whether every listed field is a getter.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 012fc

13-21: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Architecture, 🔵 low, [follow-up]: prFailureMessage has branching logic in .jsx.

The function selects one of four messages by reason. The review standard says decisions with more than one branch belong in testable src/renderer/*.cjs modules, and the unit suite cannot reach .jsx. The PR description already defers this. Move it to a .cjs module with a unit test in a follow-up.
