Issue for this PR

None (new language support)

Type of change

  • New feature
  • Bug fix
  • Refactor / code improvement
  • Documentation

What does this PR do?

This PR adds comprehensive Hebrew (he) language support to OpenCode across all packages. The changes include:

  • Hebrew added to locale arrays in translate-app.ts, app/context/language.tsx, console/app/src/lib/language.ts, web/src/i18n/locales.ts, and web/astro.config.mjs
  • Created Hebrew translation files for app, ui, desktop, console, stats, and web packages
  • Added RTL support with dir=rtl for Hebrew in app and desktop packages
  • Created Hebrew glossary file with RTL guidance and plural form handling
  • Updated sidebar translations in astro.config.mjs for Hebrew
  • Translated 434 critical strings manually from English to Hebrew
  • 74 technical strings kept in English (key names, brand names, placeholders, URLs) as per professional standards

The changes work by:

  1. Adding Hebrew to all the necessary locale configuration files
  2. Creating comprehensive translation dictionaries for each package
  3. Implementing RTL support for proper Hebrew text direction
  4. Following the existing translation patterns used by other languages in the project

How did you verify your code works?

  • Manually tested that Hebrew appears in the language selection
  • Verified RTL support is properly configured
  • Checked that translation files follow the same structure as other languages
  • Confirmed no syntax errors in translation files
  • Verified 1052 strings are translated with 74 technical strings remaining in English (standard practice)

Screenshots / recordings

N/A (language support feature, no UI screenshots needed)

Hi! Thanks for starting this — Hebrew support is really important to the community, and I opened #42447 for it as well.

I noticed this PR currently has merge conflicts against dev — the codebase has moved on since it was opened. language.tsx now reads from desktop-native.ts (DESKTOP_NATIVE_LOCALES/LABELS/TAGS), there's an RTL_LOCALES set that drives dir, and the project added an official RTL development skill (#40543).

I'd be happy to help get this merged:

  • Rebase and adapt it to the current i18n architecture, including registering he in desktop-native.ts, adding it to RTL_LOCALES, and covering it in the parity test (packages/app/src/i18n/parity.test.ts).
  • Supply a complete, tested Hebrew dictionary — I maintain the opencode-hebrew-rtl package (a community Hebrew/RTL pack for OpenCode Desktop), so I can provide and review all translations.
  • Follow the RTL guidelines from the new skill instead of the separate rtl.css with !important overrides.

Would you prefer to update this PR, or should I open a follow-up with these changes? Happy to help either way.

תודה על העבודה — עברית חשובה לקהילה! 🇮🇱
