content-driven-development

content-driven-development is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from adobe/skills. It costs 57 tokens per session (3,434 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A development workflow for building and changing Adobe Experience Manager Edge Delivery Services websites. It requires working from real test content and a clear authoring model before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create blocks, modify site behavior, fix bugs, and validate JavaScript, CSS, and author-facing content structures.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of writing code that does not match how authors create content. It adds validation throughout development.

About the project

Adobe Skills is a collection of skills, plugins, agents, and MCP servers that extend AI coding agents with workflows for Adobe products and other tasks. Developers use it to help coding agents work with Adobe analytics and application-building tools. The catalogue entries are the repository’s own skills, plugins, agents, and MCP integrations.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

content-driven-development scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 450 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Content Driven Development (CDD)

Orchestrate the Content Driven Development workflow for AEM Edge Delivery Services. This workflow ensures code is built against real content with author-friendly content models.

CRITICAL: Never start writing or modifying code without first identifying or creating the content you will use to test your changes.

When to Use This Skill

Use CDD for ALL AEM development tasks:

  • ✅ Creating new blocks
  • ✅ Modifying existing blocks (structural or functional changes)
  • ✅ Changes to core decoration functionality
  • ✅ Bug fixes that require validation
  • ✅ Any code that affects how authors create or structure content

Do NOT use for:

  • Documentation-only changes
  • Configuration changes that don't affect authoring
  • Research tasks that don't require making any code changes yet

Philosophy

Content Driven Development prioritizes creating or identifying test content before writing code. This ensures:

  • Code is built against real content
  • Author-friendly content models
  • Validation throughout development

Optional: Understanding CDD Principles

Read references/cdd-philosophy.md if:

  • User asks "why" questions about content-first approach
  • You need to understand reasoning behind CDD decisions
  • You're unsure whether to prioritize author vs developer experience

Otherwise: Follow the workflow steps below

Step 0: Create TodoList

FIRST STEP: Use the TodoWrite tool to create a todo list with the following 8 tasks:

  1. Start dev server (if not running)

  2. Analyze & plan

    • Success: Clear understanding documented + acceptance criteria defined
  3. Design content model

    • Success: Content structure documented and validated
  4. Identify/create test content

    • Success: Test content accessible covering all scenarios
  5. Implement

    • Success: Functionality works across all viewports
  6. Lint & test

    • Success: All checks pass

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
