# classical-history-zh-Hans

> classical-history-zh-Hans is an Agent Skill for documents published in the SaberOnGo/public-domain-books-translation repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.

Use this profile after a language-pair EPUB template when translating ancient historical, chronicle, biography, diplomacy, warfare, ritual, or name-heavy works into Simplified Chinese.

## SKILL.md

# 古代历史简体中文 EPUB 控制流程 / Classical History EPUB Control Workflow

## 何时使用 / When to Use

当一本书具有以下任一特征时，使用本 profile：

- 春秋战国、秦汉或其他古代历史叙事。
- 人物、国名、地名、官名、爵位、宗族、使节、战争或外交关系密集。
- 年代、事件顺序、会盟、朝聘、游说、策反、礼制背景会影响理解。
- 注释密度明显高于普通文学翻译。

Use this profile for ancient historical prose where people, states, chronology, institutions, diplomacy, warfare, and annotation control are publication blockers.

## 必须叠加的目录 / Required Overlay

```text
common -> {language-pair-template} -> profiles/classical-history-zh-Hans -> books/zh-Hans/{number}_{目标语言书名}_{目标语言作者名}/
```

## 执行步骤 / Workflow

在语言方向模板的主流程中插入：

1. `prompts/00_profile_integration_zh_Hans.md`
2. `prompts/04a_historical_context_zh_Hans.md`
3. `prompts/06a_named_entity_lock_zh_Hans.md`
4. `prompts/08b_chapter_historical_audit_zh_Hans.md`
5. `prompts/16b_history_random_spotcheck_zh_Hans.md`

## 必要记录 / Required Records

- `metadata/historical_context.md`
- `glossary/historical_terms.csv`
- `glossary/people_places.csv`
- `qa/historical/event_timeline.md`
- `qa/historical/state_relations_matrix.csv`
- `qa/historical/{chapter}.historical_audit.md`
- `reviews/scorecards/_TEMPLATE_history_scorecard.md`

## PASS 标准 / Pass Standard

- 核心人物、国家、官名、地名和时间线已锁定。
- 章节历史审计没有未关闭 P0/P1/P2。
- 注释既足够防误读，又没有把正文压成百科。
- 随机抽检对人物、国家关系、年代、制度和注释独立检查。

## 随机抽检同类问题全书审计 / Book-Wide Similar-Issue Audit

随机抽检一旦发现任何需要修复或可能系统性复现的问题，包括但不限于 P0/P1/P2、单项 <80、读者不可理解、事实/术语/图表/公式/注释错误，或本模板硬门禁失败，主执行 AI 不得只修被抽中的样本，也不得等到第二轮才全书检查。必须先把发现归纳为问题族，再对整本读者可见书稿执行全书同类问题审计，覆盖 `chapters/final/`、frontmatter、metadata、nav、表格、图片、公式、图注、注释和生成 EPUB 中相应 XHTML；修复所有确认命中，记录合理例外，并在该轮 `fix_log.md` 与 `closure_check.md` 中关闭该问题族后，才能使用新 seed 复抽。

若该轮发现译文质量问题族，还必须在 `fix_log.md` 填写 `translation_quality_skill_backfill: "UPDATED"` 或 `"MERGED"`、`translation_quality_skill_backfill_path: "skills/translation-quality-defect-families/SKILL.md"` 和回填摘要，并在 `closure_check.md` 填写 `translation_quality_skill_backfill_verified: true`；若仅有非译文质量问题，必须填写 `NOT_APPLICABLE` 和具体理由。

If a random sample exposes any issue that needs correction or may recur systemically, treat it as a possible systemic defect family immediately in the current round. Audit the whole reader-facing book for similar cases, fix all confirmed matches, document justified exceptions, and close the family in the same round before a new-seed resample.

## 译文质量问题族沉淀 / Translation-Quality Defect Family Backfill

凡发现可复现的译文质量问题族，包括忠实度、中文顺读、术语、标题/小标题、注释、图表文字接口、源语句法残留、过硬过直句、短句切断、比喻自撞、排比标点拖拽、代词指代不清、过度解释或加戏等，必须使用 `skills/translation-quality-defect-families/SKILL.md`。先在具体书籍工程完成证据记录、同类审计、修复和复查；再把可复用经验合并回填到该 skill，已有同族条目时更新归纳，不盲目重复追加。

When a recurring translation-quality defect family is found, use `skills/translation-quality-defect-families/SKILL.md`. Close the evidence, similar-case audit, fixes, and recheck in the book project first; then merge only reusable lessons into the skill.

## Expert Translation Quality / 专家级译文质量

Translation, chapter controls, independent review, random spot-checks, final artifact review, private-use artifact review, and reader-feedback fixes must use `skills/expert-translation-quality/SKILL.md` when expert-level prose, context-dependent word choice, or polysemy back-checking matters. Recurring concrete defects still belong in `skills/translation-quality-defect-families/SKILL.md`.

翻译、章节 control、独立审校、随机抽检、最终产物审阅、private-use 产物审阅和读者反馈修复中，只要涉及专家级译文、上下文依赖选义或多义词回看，必须使用 `skills/expert-translation-quality/SKILL.md`。具体复发坏例仍沉淀到 `skills/translation-quality-defect-families/SKILL.md`。
