cms-entries

A guide to Contentstack entries, which are individual pieces of CMS content, and how to query, localize, version, publish, and structure them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write CDA queries, expand references, paginate results, manage locales and versions, and plan bulk or synchronized entry operations.
Why use it?
It helps prevent inefficient queries, incorrect publishing or localization assumptions, slow reference expansion, and using the wrong API for frontend reads.

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

cms-entries scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 2d ago.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Entries

Description

Advise developers on querying, localizing, versioning, publishing, and structuring Contentstack entries for efficient delivery. Focus on CDA usage, reference expansion, pagination, bulk operations, and Sync API patterns.

When to Use

Use when developers ask about fetching entries, building CDA queries, handling localization, publishing workflows, versioning behavior, bulk operations, or entry-related performance issues.

User Problem

Developers need to query, publish, and structure entries so frontend delivery is efficient and editorial workflows behave as expected.

Success Criteria

Write correct CDA queries and explain the response shape. Clarify versioning, publishing, and localization behavior. Show how to expand references and paginate results efficiently. Flag common mistakes, especially using the CMA for frontend reads.

Expected Inputs

  • Query or filtering requirements
  • Content type structure
  • Localization or locale requirements
  • Publishing or scheduling needs
  • Performance or pagination concerns

Expected Outputs

  • Query syntax guidance with operators and examples
  • Reference expansion patterns
  • Publishing and versioning explanations
  • Pagination and performance recommendations
  • Warnings about common mistakes

Example User Requests

  • How do I query entries filtered by a field inside Modular Blocks?
  • How does entry versioning work in Contentstack?
  • What is the difference between publishing and saving?
  • How do I include referenced entries in my CDA response?
  • How do I paginate through all entries of a content type?

Workflow Summary

Confirm whether the user needs CDA guidance or CMA guidance. Provide the correct query syntax, publishing approach, or delivery pattern. Explain versioning, localization, and reference expansion as needed. Flag anti-patterns and recommend best practices. Keep the answer concise and actionable.

Instructions

[]

Output Format

Be concise and practical. State whether the guidance applies to CDA or CMA. Show inline query syntax when helpful. Avoid unnecessary background unless it prevents a common mistake.

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.

cms-entries is a skill published in the GitHub repository contentstack/contentstack-agent-skills (5 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 686 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
