Hi @deptno 👋

Thanks for your contribution 🔥, well done! I have some comments for you:

• There is already an open PR with papago search Add Papago extension #888 started by @wooogle – it would make sense to use one of the extension as a base and both contribute.

Some feedback for your extension

• At the moment, Raycast doesn't support localization and only supports US English.
• The name of the command needs to be understandable, check Naming convention
• Do I need to register for a key before “history” and does that make any sense?
• We do already have Google Translate so it makes sense to make the Papago translater and focus on that?

Let me know your thoughts

Hi @pernielsentikaer

Thank you for your feedback. I reflected them in this extension.

• At the moment, Raycast doesn't support localization and only supports US English.
  • I removed code related i18n.
• The name of the command needs to be understandable, check Naming convention
  • I changed the name of the command to Translator.
• Do I need to register for a key before “history” and does that make any sense?
  • No. You don't need to register for a key to use History. It isn't related.
• We do already have Google Translate so it makes sense to make the Papago translater and focus on that?
  • Translation services are not accurate. so, It usually need to compare multiple services for better understanding.

Hi @deptno 👋

Thanks for the update 💪

I have some suggestions and comments for you to address:

• I'm not sure how the history works, tried a lot of searches but seems like nothing ends in the history?
• Are you in Slack, would love to have an API key for 15 minutes to test it fully out.

Request a new review when you are ready, feel free to contact me here or at Slack if you have any questions.

Thank you for your feedbacks.

1. Purpose of the extension is to serve multiple translated texts from multiple providers(Google, Papago, etc) at once.

So, "Papago" can't be name of the extension.

2. History doesn't work automatically, It is triggered by user action(cmd + enter or ActionPanel) and I'll changed confusing titles.

3. check slack DM!

Hi @deptno 👋

1. Makes sense 😄
2. Ah, seems like a section title caused the confusion

I have some suggestions for you:

1. I would move the credentials to preferences instead, would fit how the rest of Raycast is working.
2. After adding the key, then it seems like it's not happy fetching the result 😄

3. Icon is missing in the ActionPanel here:
