Full instructions & audit →Contentstack Vibe Docs
An Agent Skill that gives AI coding agents comprehensive Contentstack CMS knowledge. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Roo Code, and 25+ other tools.
AI Agents: Read
skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/SKILL.md. It contains routing rules that direct you to the 1-3 files you need. Do not read all files — this skill contains ~13,500 lines across 34 reference documents.
How It Works
This skill uses progressive disclosure to keep your agent's context window clean:
- Discovery (~100 tokens) — The agent loads the skill name and description. Just enough to know "this is relevant for Contentstack tasks."
- Activation (~3,500 tokens) — When a Contentstack task is detected, the agent reads
SKILL.mdwith its routing table, decision helpers, and inline quick-start patterns. - Execution (on-demand) — The routing table directs the agent to read only the 1-3 specific reference files it needs. It never loads all ~13,500 lines.
User: "Add live preview to my Next.js app"
→ Agent loads skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/SKILL.md (routing table)
→ Reads skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/references/live-preview/concepts.md
→ Reads skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/references/live-preview/ssr-mode.md
→ Reads skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/references/frameworks/nextjs.md
→ Implements with copy-paste ready codeWhat's Covered

Security & Guardrails
This skill includes built-in security measures and red flags that instruct agents to handle credentials safely:
- No secret leaking — Agents are explicitly told to never ask for, output, log, or hardcode API keys, tokens, or secrets. All code uses
process.env.*references. - Credential hygiene — If a developer accidentally pastes a real token in the conversation, the agent is instructed to warn them and suggest they rotate it.
- Frontend protection — Management Tokens are flagged as server-side only. Agents are told to never expose them in frontend code.
.envsafety — Agents are instructed to never commit.envfiles or credentials to version control.- Red flags checklist — A dedicated "Red Flags" section in
SKILL.mdlists specific anti-patterns agents must avoid, from hardcoding secrets to mixing SDK patterns incorrectly. - Questions before code — Agents are guided to ask about region, framework, and environment setup before writing any code, ensuring the right patterns are used from the start.

The single source of truth is skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/ (SKILL.md + references/) and rules/contentstack.mdc. Everything under codex/skills/ and cursor/rules/ is generated — do not edit those directly. After editing a source file, run:
bash scripts/build.shGenerated files are committed so GitHub / zip-download installs work without running the script locally.
Support
Install
Universal (all agents)
Install with the skills CLI:
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docsThis auto-detects your installed agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, etc.) and installs the skill for all of them.
Install for specific agents only:
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs -a claude-code
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs -a cursor
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs -a github-copilotInstall globally (available in all your projects):
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs -gClaude Code
Install as a personal skill (all projects):
claude skill add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docsOr use the skills CLI:
npx skills add contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs -a claude-code -gOnce installed, Claude Code discovers the skill automatically when you work on Contentstack tasks. You can also invoke it directly:
/contentstack-vibe-docs fetch blog posts with author references
/contentstack-vibe-docs set up live preview in Next.js
/contentstack-vibe-docs optimize images for responsive layoutsGemini CLI
gemini skills install https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs.gitInstall to workspace scope:
gemini skills install https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs.git --scope workspaceManage installed skills
npx skills list # List all installed skills
npx skills check # Check for updates
npx skills update # Update all skillsClaude Code Plugin
This repo is also a Claude Code plugin. Install it directly:
claude plugin install https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docsOr test locally during development:
claude --plugin-dir ./contentstack-vibe-docsThe plugin includes:
- Skills — the full Contentstack documentation skill with routing and references
Cursor Plugin
This repo is also a Cursor plugin. Install it directly in Cursor:
- Open Cursor Settings > Plugins
- Add this repository URL:
https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs
The plugin includes:
- Skills — the full Contentstack documentation skill with routing and references
- Rules —
rules/contentstack.mdcwith routing table, decision helpers, security guardrails, and quick patterns
Cursor (manual install)
If you prefer not to use the plugin marketplace, copy the .mdc rule file directly into your project:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs.git /tmp/cs-skills && \
mkdir -p .cursor/rules && \
cp /tmp/cs-skills/cursor/rules/*.mdc .cursor/rules/ && \
rm -rf /tmp/cs-skillsCursor auto-discovers .cursor/rules/*.mdc on project open.
Codex CLI
Codex auto-discovers AGENTS.md in your project root. Copy the prebuilt codex/ directory in:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/contentstack/contentstack-vibe-docs.git /tmp/cs-skills && \
cp -r /tmp/cs-skills/codex . && \
rm -rf /tmp/cs-skillsThis places codex/AGENTS.md and codex/skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/ in your project. Codex reads AGENTS.md, which routes it to the skill.
Any other agent (manual)
Every major agent reads at least one of: CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, skills/*/SKILL.md, or .cursor/rules/*.mdc. Point your agent at the repo root or copy skills/contentstack-vibe-docs/ into your project — the routing table in SKILL.md does the rest.
One install gets you everything — 1 skills — kept up to date together.
