Confluence Assistant

The central hub skill that routes Confluence requests to specialized skills.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to work with Confluence and are unsure which specific skill to use. This hub will intelligently route your request to the appropriate specialized skill based on keywords in your request.

Note: Trigger keywords are case-insensitive.

Explicit Routing Rules

Rule 1: Explicit Skill Mention Wins

If the user explicitly names a skill, route directly to it.

• "Use confluence-search to find pages" → confluence-search
• "I need confluence-page skill" → confluence-page

Rule 2: Entity Signals

Presence of identifiers suggests specific skills:

• Page ID (numeric) → likely confluence-page, confluence-comment, confluence-attachment
• Space key (uppercase) → likely confluence-space, confluence-search
• CQL query → confluence-search

Rule 3: Operation Keywords

Match verbs to skill domains:

• Create/update/delete/copy/move page → confluence-page
• Search/find/query/export → confluence-search
• Comment/reply/resolve → confluence-comment
• Upload/download/attach → confluence-attachment

Rule 4: Quantity Signals

Large-scale operations require bulk handling:

• Operations on 10+ items → confluence-bulk
• Bulk label operations → confluence-bulk
• Bulk delete/move → confluence-bulk
• "all pages in space" → confluence-bulk

Rule 5: Ambiguous Requests

When intent is unclear, ask for clarification rather than guessing.

Negative Triggers (What Each Skill Does NOT Handle)

Skill	Does NOT Handle
confluence-page	Space-level operations, search queries, permissions, comments
confluence-space	Individual page content, page CRUD, comments, attachments
confluence-search	Content creation, content modification, permission changes
confluence-comment	Page content updates, attachments, labels
confluence-attachment	Page content, comments, permissions
confluence-label	Page content, search queries, permissions
confluence-template	Direct page CRUD, search, permissions
confluence-property	Page content (body), comments, permissions
confluence-permission	Page content, search, comments
confluence-analytics	Content modification (read-only skill)
confluence-watch	Content modification, permissions
confluence-hierarchy	Page content, permissions, search
confluence-jira	Pure Confluence operations (cross-product only)
confluence-bulk	Single-item operations, read-only queries
confluence-ops	Content operations, permissions, search
confluence-admin	Page content CRUD, search queries

---

Context Awareness

Pronoun Resolution

When users say "it", "this", "that", refer to the most recently mentioned resource:

• "Get page 12345" → "Update it" = Update page 12345
• "Search in DOCS space" → "Export those results" = Export DOCS search

Space Scope

Operations default to the current space context when established:

• "List pages in DOCS" → subsequent "create a page" assumes DOCS space

Context Expiration

Context clears when:

• User explicitly changes topic
• New space or page is explicitly mentioned
• Session restarts

---

Disambiguation Examples

Example 1: Ambiguous Target

User: "Show me the page"
→ Ambiguous: Which page?
→ Ask: "Which page would you like to see? Please provide the page ID or title."

Example 2: Missing Operation

User: "Page 12345"
→ Ambiguous: What operation?
→ Ask: "What would you like to do with page 12345? (get, update, delete, etc.)"

Example 3: Skill Overlap

User: "Find the comments"
→ Ambiguous: Search for pages with comments, or list comments on a page?
→ Ask: "Would you like to search for pages containing comments, or list comments on a specific page?"

Example 4: Destructive Operation Confirmation

User: "Delete all pages in ARCHIVE"
→ Destructive operation detected
→ Ask: "This will delete all pages in ARCHIVE space. Are you sure? Please confirm with 'yes' to proceed."

Common Workflows

Workflow 1: Create and Configure a New Page

1. confluence-page - Create the page with content
2. confluence-label - Add relevant labels
3. confluence-permission - Set page restrictions if needed

Workflow 2: Content Audit

1. confluence-search - Find pages matching criteria
2. confluence-analytics - Check view counts and activity
3. confluence-label - Tag pages based on audit findings

Workflow 3: Space Migration

1. confluence-search - Find all pages in source space
2. confluence-page - Copy pages to destination space
3. confluence-attachment - Verify attachments transferred
4. confluence-hierarchy - Confirm parent-child relationships

Workflow 4: Documentation Review

1. confluence-search - Find pages by label (e.g., "needs-review")
2. confluence-comment - Add review comments
3. confluence-label - Update labels (remove "needs-review", add "reviewed")
