rp-setup-discovery
Determine the Wix-side setup required before import can run safely.
Purpose
This skill analyzes the approved mapping plan and derives environment prerequisites such as installed apps, SMC collections, extended-fields schemas, references, permissions, and any other target-system configuration dependencies.
Required inputs
migrations/<project>/mapping-plan.md
migrations/<project>/mapping-summary.md
- any Wix environment constraints or destination account details provided by the user
Workflow
- Confirm the mapping review checkpoint has been accepted, then read the mapping plan and
mapping summary and identify every non-native requirement.
- Determine which Wix apps must be installed or enabled.
- Determine which SMC collections must exist.
- Determine which extended-fields schemas, references, enums, or validation rules must exist.
- Capture dependency ordering where setup steps depend on each other.
- Write a setup artifact that downstream execution can verify.
Artifact to create or update
migrations/<project>/setup-requirements.md
Treat mapping-summary.md as the user-facing statement of intent and mapping-plan.md as
the detailed contract. If they materially disagree, halt and send the workflow back to
rp-mapper to correct them before deriving setup requirements.
Minimum contents
- required Wix apps
- canonical crosswalk requirement name when native Wix entities need resume/dedupe
- required collections and schemas
- required field definitions
- permissions or access prerequisites
- setup order
- manual steps vs. steps that can be automated
- verification criteria for each requirement
Optional source reachability setup for media
If the mapping imports media by URL and the source profile shows localhost,
127.0.0.1, or another private-only source URL, add an optional setup note for media
reachability. This is not a blocker for non-media entities and should not be framed as
a required Wix-side app/setup item. As far as we know today, it only affects Wix Media
import because Wix's import-from-URL API fetches files from Wix servers.
Offer two options in setup-requirements.md:
- Expose the local source through a public HTTPS tunnel before live media import.
- Skip/defer media import for the first live run and continue non-media entities.
For ngrok, include:
brew install ngrok
ngrok config add-authtoken "<YOUR_AUTHTOKEN>"
ngrok http 8090
export WP_BASE_URL=https://<id>.ngrok-free.app
Tell the user to use the HTTPS forwarding URL as WP_BASE_URL / SOURCE_URL, or ensure
generated code rewrites source media URLs from the local base URL to the tunnel base URL.
Verifying Wix APIs
Confirm that the apps, collections, field types, and references you require actually
exist in Wix with the names/types you state — never invent them.
- When the Wix MCP is available, verification is mandatory, not optional — verify at
the moment you write the requirement, don't defer it. Verify enum values, not just
names: confirm each
Field.type against the Create Data Collection schema. (Common
trap: there is no SLUG type — a Wix slug is a TEXT field.)
- When the Wix MCP is expected but missing, treat that as a missing prerequisite first.
Before falling back to docs, first try to ensure the Wix MCP is installed/connected in
the current runtime. If the environment supports connector/plugin install flows, use
them. Otherwise halt to needs-user with exact install/connect instructions for the Wix
MCP and resume once it is available.
unverified is reserved for when the MCP is genuinely unavailable — not a way to
pass an unchecked internal-catalog name downstream while the MCP is right there.
- Fallback when no Wix MCP is available is degraded mode, not the default path.
Use it only when the user explicitly asks for a provisional setup draft without the Wix
MCP, or when an upstream orchestrator explicitly routed this step in provisional mode.
In that mode, rely on published Wix REST/SDK documentation and conservative, known-good
names, and mark the requirement
unverified so a human confirms it before
rp-execute-setup runs.
Crosswalk naming
When setup requirements include a durable sourceId -> targetId side table for native
Wix entities, the canonical collection name is ImportCrosswalk. If the mapping plan
uses older prose such as MigrationRefs, normalize it here and call out the rename in the
artifact so downstream setup/codegen share one contract.
Classifying manual vs. automatable
Do not assert "manual" / "cannot self-provision" by assumption — check the API surface.
- Enabling a Wix app (Blog, Members, etc.) is automatable via the App Installation
API; classify it automatable and cite the method. (Common trap: do not mark Blog or
Members "cannot self-provision" — both are installable via the API.)
- Creating CMS collections is automatable; enabling Wix Data itself is automatable by
installing the Wix Data app
appDefId e593b0bd-b783-45b8-97c2-873d42aacaf4 via the
App Installation API, after which POST /wix-data/v2/collections creates NATIVE
collections with no WDE0110 (verified live 2026-06-10; see rp-execute-setup).
- Only storage-plan upgrades, external-system credentials, and account billing are
genuinely manual. Mark something manual only after confirming no API covers it.
Runtime policy
Verify names and enums against the Wix MCP rather than emitting unverified by default.
Classify automatability by checking the API surface (see above), not by assumption. If the
MCP is genuinely unavailable, use the documented fallback only for an explicitly
provisional artifact and mark the requirement unverified so downstream steps surface it
before execution.
Guardrails
- Separate required setup from optional optimizations.
- Avoid embedding import logic here; this file is about prerequisites.
- Be explicit about which requirements come from which mapping decision.
- Do not produce a docs-only setup artifact as the normal path when the Wix MCP
prerequisite is missing. That mode must be explicitly marked provisional.
