summary: Build ICU skeletons
description: Returns ICU skeletons for multiple locale codes based on a source content.
description: |
Generates ICU (International Components for Unicode) message format skeletons for a given source string across one or more locales. An ICU skeleton strips the literal text from a pluralized or select message while preserving its structural rules — argument names, plural categories, select cases, and ordinal forms — adjusted to the pluralization rules of each requested locale.

Use this endpoint to normalize translation templates before importing them into locale files, or to validate that a source string carries the plural forms required by a target language.

Either `content` or `id` must be provided — supplying both or neither returns 400. When `id` is used and the referenced translation does not exist, the endpoint returns 404. When the source string is not valid ICU message format syntax, the endpoint returns 422 with an `error` field describing the parse failure.
