- Create a new item in a Directus collection Arguments: <collection> <field=value> [field=value...].
# Create Item
Follow the `item-operations` skill (`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/item-operations/SKILL.md`) for the query syntax, filters and batch rules; read it before the first call.
## Arguments
- `collection` (required) — Collection name
- `field=value` pairs — Field values for the new item
## Process
1. Parse collection name and field=value pairs from input
2. Call `schema` tool with `keys: ["<collection>"]` to check required fields
3. Warn if any required fields are missing from the input
4. Build data object from field=value pairs
5. Call `items` tool with:
```json
{
"action": "create",
"collection": "<collection>",
"data": [{ "field1": "value1", "field2": "value2" }]
}
```
**Remember: data is ALWAYS an array**
6. Display the created item with its ID
7. Suggest viewing the item or creating more
## Example
Input: `posts title="My New Post" status=draft content="Post content here"`
```json
{
"action": "create",
"collection": "posts",
"data": [{
"title": "My New Post",
"status": "draft",
"content": "Post content here"
}]
}
```
