Confluence Assistant workflow skill. Use this skill when the user needs Expert in Confluence operations using Atlassian MCP. Use when the user says "search Confluence", "create a Confluence page", "update a page", "find documentation in Confluence", "list spaces", or "add a comment to a page". Do NOT use for Jira issues, general web search, or local file creation and the operator should preserve the upstream workflow, copied support files, and provenance before merging or handing off.

This public intake copy packages packages/skills-catalog/skills/(development)/confluence-assistant from https://github.com/tech-leads-club/agent-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.
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 the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.
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

Why it matters
First-time use
metadata.json
Confirms repository, branch, commit, and imported path through the external_source block before touching the copied workflow
Provenance review
ORIGIN.md
Gives reviewers a plain-language audit trail for the imported source
Workflow execution
SKILL.md
Starts with the smallest copied file that materially changes execution
Supporting context
SKILL.md
Adds the next most relevant copied source file without loading the entire package
Handoff decision

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.
Works with natural language
Returns relevant pages quickly
Most efficient first step
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)
Imported Workflow Notes
Imported: Workflow
1. Finding Content (Always Start Here)
Use search (Rovo Search) first - it's the most efficient way:
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)
Always use Markdown in the body field — never HTML.

#### 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)

✅ DO
Always use Markdown for page body field

⚠️ 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, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.
Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review
Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.
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.

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)
