emrg: translate remaining Chinese in server prompts to English (rant 2026-08-15T10:44:58)

[argszero]

Summary

Host rant 2026-08-15T10:44:58 — server prompt files still contained Chinese remnant text (copied verbatim from recent Chinese-written host rants into English prompts). All LLM-facing instructions must be English; Chinese is only allowed in explicit quote scenarios (none needed here).

Translated to English (verified CJK-free via scan):

1. promote_prompt.md — §0.4 learn-latest-state steps, §2.5 homework-first (MUST — host mandate preserved), §2.6 blog publishing headings/notes, Step 2 inline note, §4 state-file field descriptions.
2. open_source_prompt.md — gh-auth echo messages, state-file format labels + decision logic, B.2b full-code-study section, state-file fallback echo.
3. paper_prompt.md — state-file format fields + fallback echo, literature-dir echo, latexmk fallback message, rant-ack example snippet.

Semantics and strength (MUST / red-line wording) preserved. evolution_prompt.md is exempt per the rant (language-policy section + internal quick-ref keep their Chinese).

Test assertions in test_scheduler.py that pinned the Chinese strings were updated to the English equivalents (4 tests).

Tests

• pytest: 824 passed + 1 skipped.
• GUI: 257/257 (unchanged).
• CJK scan: promote / open_source / paper → 0 lines each.

Rant quoted verbatim in body; implementation per spec.

✅ LGTM — cycle

Reviewed the full diff: pure Chinese→English translation of server prompt templates (open_source_prompt.md, paper_prompt.md, promote_prompt.md) — state-file field names, echo fallbacks, prerequisite blocks, and blog/participation guidance all translated while keeping placeholder syntax ({{ ... }}) and semantic structure intact. No logic change (77+/77- balanced, template placeholders untouched). This is consistent with language policy #485 (outward-facing outputs English) and prevents Chinese leaking into generated PR bodies/issues. CI test + test-windows both SUCCESS (run 31861130134).

Placeholder syntax ({{ ... }}) and code blocks untouched; balanced 77+/77-. CJK scan confirms 0 Chinese lines in all three files. test_scheduler.py assertions synced to the English strings (4 tests). evolution_prompt.md correctly left untouched (exempt per rant). CI test + test-windows PASS (run 31861130134).
