Finance Automation #4480: Translation Workflow with Slack + Google Sheets + Telegram

Problem

translation workflow between Slack, Google Sheets, Telegram is error-prone when finance teams reconcile billing, invoices, or ledger entries by hand.

Automating validations before writes to Google Sheets lowers reconciliation risk.
