🎯 What Does This Do?

Are you tired of seeing random plugin names and descriptions in a foreign language when you open ChatGPT or Codex? This tool simply replaces the text on the plugin store page inside your desktop app with a version you can actually understand. It works like magic — no need to edit any files inside the app, no special technical skills.

It’s a local-first app that runs directly on your computer. It translates the plugin store interface and plugin descriptions into a language you choose. It supports 15 different languages including Chinese, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, German, Korean, and more.

🖥️ Works on Mac, and Windows (experimental)

If you use a Mac (macOS), you are fully supported. If you use Windows, there is experimental support — it’s mostly working, but a few rare edge cases might occur. Still, you can try it out, and the basic translation will work perfectly on most setups.

💡 Note: This tool works directly with the ChatGPT desktop app and the Codex desktop app. It does not attempt to change your system language or modify the core app files. Simply open your app and enjoy a familiar interface.

⚡ Features That Make You Smile

🗣️ 15 Languages Supported

From Chinese (Simplified & Traditional) to Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and more. The plugin store instantly adapts to what you know.

🔒 No App Patching

Usually, localizing an app requires modifying its core files (which is risky!). This tool cleverly changes the text in real-time as the store loads, leaving the original app untouched.

🚫 No Debugging Port

There’s no need to open a TCP port or mess with developer debugging settings. Everything stays clean, safe, and simple.

🔄 Local-First Design

Your translations are applied instantly on your device. No cloud syncing, no waiting, no privacy concerns.

    🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

    "Is it safe?" Yes. It doesn't modify your apps or your system. It only changes text that you see on the screen. It’s like wearing reading glasses — everything is just clearer.

    "Will it slow down my computer?" No, the app uses very little memory and only works when you open the plugin store.

    "Which app does it work for?" It works for both ChatGPT (chat.openai.com desktop app) and Codex (the new coding tool from OpenAI).

    "I’m on Windows, will it crash?" It’s marked “experimental,” so the translation might not be 100% perfect, and there could be occasional hiccups. But it’s safe — worst case, you close the app and reopen it. You can still try it.

    ✨ Razor-Sharp Tips

    Tip 1: Always download the latest version of the localizer from the link above to get bug fixes and new languages.
    Tip 2: If the translation seems off or out-of-date, quit both the localizer and ChatGPT/Codex,
