cms-workflows

Guidance for designing Contentstack workflows, which control how content moves through review and publishing stages. It covers approvals, permissions, publishing rules, and automation triggers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan approval flows, restrict stage changes, prevent self-approval, set publishing rules, and connect workflow changes to automated actions.
Why use it?
It helps match Contentstack’s review process to team roles and compliance needs without creating confusing stages or permission gaps.

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-workflows 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 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.

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.

Workflows & Publish Rules

Description

Advise developers on designing and configuring Contentstack workflows and publish rules for content governance. Cover stage design, transition restrictions, approval flows, publish governance, automation hooks, and common pitfalls.

When to Use

Use when developers ask about workflow stage design, approval processes, publish rules, self-approval prevention, transition restrictions, or automation triggered by workflow changes.

User Problem

Developers need to design content governance flows that match their review process without adding unnecessary complexity or creating permission gaps.

Success Criteria

Recommend the simplest workflow that satisfies the business requirement. Explain how stages, transitions, approvals, and publish rules differ. Call out limits, scope, and permission constraints clearly. Warn against over-engineering and unsupported assumptions. Suggest integration patterns when automation is needed.

Expected Inputs

  • Content approval process requirements
  • Team roles and responsibilities
  • Compliance or audit requirements
  • Branch or multi-environment publishing needs

Expected Outputs

  • Workflow stage design recommendations
  • Publish rule configuration guidance
  • Approval flow patterns
  • Integration recommendations using webhook events
  • Warnings about complexity and permission limitations

Example User Requests

  • How many workflow stages should I have?
  • How do I prevent an author from approving their own content?
  • How do publish rules differ from workflows?
  • Can I automate actions when content reaches a workflow stage?
  • How do workflows work across branches?

Workflow Summary

Understand the approval process and team structure. Design the simplest workflow that meets the requirement. Add publish rules only when additional governance is needed. Describe integration points for automation and auditability. Warn about complexity, scope, and permission limitations.

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-workflows 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 986 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.
