Good morning to team !

we are translating lots of skills from en-us to cs-cz. I found some “errors” few days back in intents. For example stock skill.

In file StockPriceKeyword.voc we have a:

akcie
cena akcií
cena akcie
tržní cena

for first 3 intents Mycroft don’t understand. But the last works :slight_smile:

few debugs:

1. ERROR

Poor mans debuging is to insert a lot of log calls (self.log.info or debug) and then watch the log for those.
You could also enable remote debug adaptor and connect to that from your IDE - I made a skill that helps dooing that

It works from VSCode or the THEIA IDE which I also made a skil for

I need debug “only” a voice intent translated from en-us to cs-cz without editing or changing source code of .py. Self.log solution is useless in this point :slight_smile: I need to know why Mycroft don’t accept (means why don’t run stock skill) first 3 words in intent file and accept only last one.

BTW any of installed skills does not containt word “akcie” except StockPriceKeyword.voc.
