Summary

config init --new --lang en rendered its whole flow in Chinese, so users who
picked English in the npm install wizard still saw a Chinese QR-scan screen.
The display language was driven only by the interactive picker, which --new
skips; neither --lang nor a stored preference could reach it. This restores
the resolution chain --lang > stored preference > picker, so the language a
run renders in is always the preference that same run persists.

This is a regression fix, not a design change: building the commit before #1132
(3b770558^) and current main from the same command shows English before and
Chinese after. Everything else that PR introduced — strict --lang validation,
the typed 14-locale catalog, persisting the preference — is kept.

Changes

  • Add i18n.UsesEnglishUI and route getInitMsg / getBindMsg / getLoginMsg
    / brandDisplay through it. Only zh_cn (and values expressing no
    preference) render Chinese; the other 13 locales render English instead of
    falling back to Chinese. brandDisplay shares the rule because the brand name
    is embedded in the bundle's own sentences — a different rule there produced
    The 飞书 app (bot) identity is ready.
  • Resolve the config init display language from --lang and the target
    profile's stored preference before anything renders, reusing the existing
    preferredLang so the rendered and persisted languages cannot diverge.
  • Split config bind's finalizeSource into detectSource (never prompts) and
    finalizeSource, so the language can be settled before the first prompt. Once
    the workspace is final, reresolveBindUILang reads that workspace's stored
    preference — previously unreachable when the source came from the TUI picker,
    which left the success banner in a different language than the persisted
    value.
  • Keep the language picker reachable and pre-select the preference already in
    effect, so Enter keeps it. Locales the two-option picker cannot express skip
    it instead, so a bare Enter can never silently rewrite them; unrecognized
    values keep asking, matching how UsesEnglishUI reads them.
  • List short codes in --lang errors and mark the values case-sensitive, via
    i18n.CodesWithShort. --lang EN used to be rejected against a list that
    showed neither en nor any hint about case.
  • Document in --name help that a new profile inherits no language preference,
    so config init --new --name <new> rendering Chinese explains itself.
  • Drop i18n.IsEnglish and i18n.Codes, both left without production callers.

Test Plan

  • Unit tests pass (cmd/config, cmd/auth, cmd/profile,
    internal/i18n, internal/cmdutil); new tests cover the resolution
    chain, the picker gate, bundle selection and the catalog table
  • go build ./..., go vet ./..., full unit and integration suites, the
    convention guard and the security tests all pass
  • Manual local verification confirms lark-cli config init --new --lang en
    renders English, and that lark-cli config bind renders in the stored
    preference of the workspace it binds
  • Interactive paths verified against a real TTY through a pty driver: the
    picker appears with the stored preference pre-selected, and locales it
    cannot express are left untouched
  • Behaviour compared A/B against a binary built before this change, with
    the same config data, to confirm each screen switched language

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Improved language selection for configuration setup and login flows.
    • English is now used for recognized non-Chinese locales, while Chinese remains the default for unset or unknown preferences.
    • config init and config bind preserve stored language preferences and avoid unnecessary prompts.
    • Language prompts reflect existing preferences and command-line choices.
    • Help text and validation errors clarify supported, case-sensitive language codes, including short codes.

brandDisplay still decided the brand name with IsEnglish while getBindMsg
picks the bundle with UsesEnglishUI. For the 12 locales that have no bundle
of their own (ja_jp, ko_kr, fr_fr, ...) the two disagreed, producing mixed
output such as "Bound app cli_x to Hermes. The 飞书 app (bot) identity ...".
The brand is substituted into the bundle's own sentences, so it must follow
the same rule that selected that bundle.

Also lock down and clarify the surrounding language-resolution code:
- note that resolveBindUILang sets the process workspace before reading the
  stored preference, and that the later set in configBindRunWithRecovery is
  the same value
- drop the stale "cobra default zh" note on bindMsg.LangPreferenceSet
- TestResolveBindUILang_FlagMode uses the package's saveWorkspace helper
  instead of hardcoding a restore to the local workspace
- TestPrintLangPreferenceConfirmation no longer pins Lang=en_us against a
  Chinese UILang, a combination resolveInitUILang cannot produce
- new TestBrandDisplay_FollowsBundleSelection asserts the brand and the
  bundle stay one decision across locales
- new TestInitLangChain_ResolveToBundle runs resolve -> prompt gate ->
  bundle lookup as one chain, and the bind envelope test now also asserts
  the stderr banner matches the JSON message language
Rejected --lang values listed only the 14 canonical locales, but short codes
are accepted too and --help recommends them, so a user who typed "EN" saw no
"en" in the list, concluded short codes were unsupported, and retried "en_US"
which fails again on case. The listing now renders "zh_cn (zh), en_us (en), ..."
from the same catalog and states the match is case-sensitive.

Also note on --name that a new profile inherits no language preference from
existing profiles, which is why its display language falls back to Chinese
unless --lang is passed, and remove i18n.Lang.IsEnglish(): its last product
caller moved to UsesEnglishUI(), leaving only its own test behind.
…reference

Skipping the picker whenever a preference existed removed the only
interactive way to change the language. Restore the pre-#1132 behaviour:
still ask, with the preference already in effect pre-selected, so Enter
keeps it. Locales the two-option picker cannot express skip it instead,
so a bare Enter can never rewrite them.
An unrecognized stored lang was skipping the picker while the bundle
choice read it as no preference and rendered Chinese, locking the user
into Chinese with no interactive way out. Both sides now read such a
value the same way: no usable preference, so keep asking.
…inal

When the source came from the TUI picker, resolveBindUILang ran before
any workspace existed, so that workspace's stored preference was never
read: the success banner rendered in a different language than the
preference the same run persisted. Add a second, non-prompting pass
after the workspace is settled.

Also correct comments that asserted invariants this path violated, and
replace a tautological catalog-coverage test with a hand-written table.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change standardizes English and Chinese UI bundle selection, expands locale validation output, and resolves language preferences during config init and config bind. Language pickers now use effective preferences, and bind re-resolves language after workspace selection.

Bind source and language orchestration

Bind separates source detection from finalization, resolves language before prompts, and re-resolves it after workspace selection. Messages and branding follow the resolved language.
Authentication message selection

Login messages use the shared locale bundle rule and test Chinese fallback with English selection for other recognized locales.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 97c28

Interactive binding may still overwrite a workspace’s stored language preference with the picker default, causing the UI language and persisted preference to diverge; this should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

- Around line 146-167: Update the bind flow around detectSource,
resolveBindUILang, and finalizeSource so an unknown source is finalized before
opening the language picker, allowing the selected workspace’s stored preference
to preselect the language while preserving explicit --lang during source
selection. Ensure the later reresolveBindUILang call cannot let the picker’s
default overwrite that stored preference on Enter, and add a nearby regression
test covering no-source TUI bind selecting a workspace with stored en_us.

The picker has to run before the workspace is known when the source comes
from the TUI, so its answer outranks that workspace's stored preference
and a bare Enter persists zh_cn over it. Record that as an explicit
tripwire: closing the boundary means reordering the prompts, which would
leave the source-selection screen with no language of its own.
