Unverified: 1 category
A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

Provenance No attestation
The registry publishes no build provenance for this version, so there is nothing to verify.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
cancel_job Cancel a job ~45
Stop a queued or running job. A cancelled job is not charged; one that had already finished is left as it is.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| job_id | string | yes | The job to stop. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
check_job Check a job ~114
Look a job up by id and, if it has finished, save its results. Use after a tool answered before its job was done.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| job_id | string | yes | The job_id an earlier call answered with. |
| output_dir | string | – | Directory for the results. Defaults to beside a local source. A URL source has no "beside": without this the answer carries temporary links. |
| wait_seconds | number | – | Seconds to keep waiting if it is still running (default 0, at most 240). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
estimate_cost Estimate what a file will cost ~93
Upload a local file without starting anything, and answer with the most a job on it can cost in credits. Free. Pass the returned file_id to translate_file or transcribe_recording so the file is not uploaded twice; kept_until says how long it is held. A recording is charged for the speech actually heard, usually less than the estimate.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| path | string | yes | Absolute path to the file on this machine. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_credit_balance Check the credit balance ~38
How many credits the account has. Credits are bought at https://equalang.com/pricing; the same balance serves the website and this server.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_languages List the languages ~92
The language codes Equalang takes, with their names, read from the live API. Needs no key. Use it to turn a language's name into its code.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| kind | string | – | file (default): the languages translate_file takes; text: the wider set translate_text takes. |
| matching | string | – | Only languages whose name or code contains this, e.g. "chinese" or "pt". |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
transcribe_recording Transcribe a recording ~288
Write down what is said in an audio or video file (mp3, m4a, wav, flac, ogg, aac, opus, mp4, mov, webm, mkv) as timed text, in the language spoken, and save it. For a translation of the recording use translate_file instead. Charged for the speech actually heard: silence and music are not. COSTS THE USER'S CREDITS: say what it will cost and get their agreement first -- estimate_cost gives the number for a file.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| file_id | string | – | A file already uploaded by estimate_cost, instead of source: starts the job without uploading again. |
| output_dir | string | – | Directory for the results. Defaults to beside a local source. A URL source has no "beside": without this the answer carries temporary links. |
| output_formats | array | – | The formats to write (default srt). txt is plain text without times. |
| source | string | – | The file: an absolute path on this machine, or a public http(s) URL (fetched by Equalang, not downloaded here). Omit when passing file_id. |
| source_language | string | – | Language spoken; omit to detect it. |
| wait_seconds | number | – | Seconds to wait before answering with a job_id instead (default 50, at most 240). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
translate_file Translate a file ~386
Translate a whole file into another language and save the result, keeping its layout, tables, images and formulas. Documents (pdf, docx, pptx, xlsx, epub, html, txt), subtitles (srt, vtt), pictures (jpg, png, webp, bmp), and recordings (mp3, m4a, wav, flac, ogg, aac, opus, mp4, mov, webm, mkv), which come back as translated subtitles. Answers with the paths written, never the contents. COSTS THE USER'S CREDITS: say what it will cost and get their agreement first -- estimate_cost gives the number for a file.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| bilingual | boolean | – | Subtitles and recordings only: keep the original line above each translated one. |
| file_id | string | – | A file already uploaded by estimate_cost, instead of source: starts the job without uploading again. |
| output_dir | string | – | Directory for the results. Defaults to beside a local source. A URL source has no "beside": without this the answer carries temporary links. |
| output_formats | array | – | Recordings only: the formats to write (default srt). |
| source | string | – | The file: an absolute path on this machine, or a public http(s) URL (fetched by Equalang, not downloaded here). Omit when passing file_id. |
| source_language | string | – | Language of the file; omit to detect it. |
| target_language | string | yes | Language to translate into. A language code such as en, zh-CN, zh-TW, ja, ko, es, fr, de. list_languages has the codes: fewer for files than for text. |
| wait_seconds | number | – | Seconds to wait before answering with a job_id instead (default 50, at most 240). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
translate_text Translate text ~233
Translate plain text and answer with the translation. Pass texts for separate strings -- labels, messages: each translated on its own, answered in order, at most 50 texts of 5,000 characters, 20,000 characters per call. Pass text for one long text -- an article, a chapter, up to 100,000 characters: it is cut at sentences by Equalang, so do not split it yourself. For anything that is a file, use translate_file, which keeps its formatting. Charged by length, a small amount; the answer says how much.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| source_language | string | – | Language of the text; omit to detect it. |
| target_language | string | yes | Language to translate into. A language code such as en, zh-CN, zh-TW, ja, ko, es, fr, de. list_languages has the codes: fewer for files than for text. |
| text | string | – | One whole text, paragraphs and line breaks included, instead of texts. |
| texts | array | – | Separate strings, each translated on its own. Omit when passing text. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
