Confluence Assistant

Overview

This public intake copy packages

packages/skills-catalog/skills/(development)/confluence-assistant

https://github.com/tech-leads-club/agent-skills

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Confluence Assistant You are an expert in using Atlassian MCP tools to interact with Confluence.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Configuration, Output Format, Sections, Key Points, Important Notes.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• Search for Confluence pages or documentation
• Create new Confluence pages
• Update existing Confluence pages
• Navigate or list Confluence spaces
• Add comments to pages
• Get details about specific pages

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Works with natural language
2. Returns relevant pages quickly
3. Most efficient first step
4. If you have ARI (Atlassian Resource Identifier): fetch(ari)
5. If you have page ID: getConfluencePage(cloudId, pageId)
6. To list spaces: getConfluenceSpaces(cloudId, keys=["SPACE_KEY"])
7. For pages in a space: getPagesInConfluenceSpace(cloudId, spaceId)

Imported Workflow Notes

Imported: Workflow

1. Finding Content (Always Start Here)

Use

search

search("natural language query about the content")

• Works with natural language
• Returns relevant pages quickly
• Most efficient first step

2. Getting Page Details

Depending on what you have:

• If you have ARI (Atlassian Resource Identifier):

  fetch(ari)

• If you have page ID:

  getConfluencePage(cloudId, pageId)

• To list spaces:

  getConfluenceSpaces(cloudId, keys=["SPACE_KEY"])

• For pages in a space:

  getPagesInConfluenceSpace(cloudId, spaceId)

3. Creating Pages

createConfluencePage(
  cloudId,
  spaceId="123456",
  title="Page Title",
  body="# Markdown Content\n\n## Section\nContent here..."
)

Always use Markdown in the

body

4. Updating Pages

updateConfluencePage(
  cloudId,
  pageId="123456",
  title="Updated Title",
  body="# Updated Markdown Content\n\n..."
)

Always use Markdown in the

body

#### Imported: Introduction

Brief overview of the topic.

#### Imported: Configuration

**Project Detection Strategy (Automatic):**

1. **Check conversation context first**: Look for Cloud ID or Confluence URL already mentioned
2. **If not found**: Ask the user to provide their Cloud ID or Confluence site URL
3. **Use detected values** for all Confluence operations in this conversation

### Configuration Detection Workflow

When you activate this skill:

1. Check if Cloud ID or Confluence URL is already available in the conversation context
2. If not found, ask: "Which Confluence site should I use? Please provide a Cloud ID (UUID) or site URL (e.g. `https://example.atlassian.net/`)"
3. Use the provided value for all operations in this conversation

**Cloud ID format:**

- Can be a site URL (e.g., `https://example.atlassian.net/`)
- Can be a UUID from `getAccessibleAtlassianResources`

## Examples

### Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

```text
Use @confluence-assistant to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @confluence-assistant against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @confluence-assistant for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @confluence-assistant using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Imported Usage Notes

Imported: Examples

Example 1: Search and Update a Page

User: "Find the API documentation page and add a new section"

1. search("API documentation")
2. getConfluencePage(cloudId, pageId="found-id")
3. updateConfluencePage(
     cloudId,
     pageId="found-id",
     title="API Documentation",
     body="# API Documentation\n\n## Existing Content\n...\n\n## New Section\nNew content here..."
   )

Example 2: Create a New Page in a Space

User: "Create a new architecture decision record"

1. getConfluenceSpaces(cloudId, keys=["TECH"])
2. createConfluencePage(
     cloudId,
     spaceId="space-id-from-step-1",
     title="ADR-001: Use Microservices Architecture",
     body="# ADR-001: Use Microservices Architecture\n\n## Status\nAccepted\n\n## Context\n...\n\n## Decision\n...\n\n## Consequences\n..."
   )

Example 3: Find and Read Page Content

User: "What's in our onboarding documentation?"

1. search("onboarding documentation")
2. getConfluencePage(cloudId, pageId="id-from-results")
3. Summarize the content for the user

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Always use Markdown for page body field
• Use search first before other lookup methods
• Use natural language in search queries
• Validate space exists before creating pages
• Include clear structure in page content (headings, lists, etc.)
• Don't confuse:
• Page ID (numeric) vs Space Key (string)

Imported Operating Notes

Imported: Best Practices

✅ DO

• Always use Markdown for page

  body

  field
• Use

  search

  first before other lookup methods
• Use natural language in search queries
• Validate space exists before creating pages
• Include clear structure in page content (headings, lists, etc.)

⚠️ IMPORTANT

• Don't confuse:
  • Page ID (numeric) vs Space Key (string)
  • Space ID (numeric) vs Space Key (CAPS_STRING)
• CloudId can be URL or UUID - both work
• Use detected configuration - Check conversation context or ask user for Cloud ID / URL
• ARI format:

  ari:cloud:confluence:site-id:page/page-id

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in

packages/skills-catalog/skills/(development)/confluence-assistant

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated

SKILL.md

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported Reference Notes

Imported: Output Format

When creating or updating pages, use well-structured Markdown:

# Main Title

#### Imported: Sections

Organize content logically with:

- Clear headings (##, ###)
- Bullet points for lists
- Code blocks for examples
- Tables when appropriate

#### Imported: Key Points

- Point 1
- Point 2
- Point 3

#### Imported: Important Notes

- **Markdown is mandatory** — never use HTML or other formats in `body`
- **Search first** — most efficient way to find content
- **Validate IDs** — ensure space/page IDs exist before operations
- **Natural language** — Rovo Search understands intent, not just keywords
- **ID types** — don't confuse page ID (numeric) vs space key (string) vs space ID (numeric)
