Confluence CLI

What it does

When your agent uses it

• The user mentions Confluence
• A space key (e.g
• Unrelated requests
• Route to the nearest named specialist

Example prompts

• “/confluence-cli”

Requirements

• Python 3
• A credential in CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN
• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires CONFLUENCE_EMAIL and CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN env vars (free from id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens), Python 3.8+, and the `requests` library. Also requires CONFLUENCE_SERVER (defaults to your-domain.atlassian.net).

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Generate an API token at id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens
2. 2Set environment variables

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c545c2b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

  • id.atlassian.com
  • developer.atlassian.com

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

  • CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

• Compatibility

  Requires CONFLUENCE_EMAIL and CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN env vars (free from id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens), Python 3.8+, and the `requests` library. Also requires CONFLUENCE_SERVER (defaults to your-domain.atlassian.net).

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Confluence CLI loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 382 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~95

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

confluence-cli

description

Interact with Atlassian Confluence from the terminal: list spaces, browse pages, view page content, search with CQL, and create pages. Use when the user mentions Confluence, a space key (e.g. DEV), or asks about documentation, wiki pages, space content, or knowledge base articles. Do not use this skill for unrelated requests; route to the nearest named specialist.

compatibility

Requires CONFLUENCE_EMAIL and CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN env vars (free from id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens), Python 3.8+, and the `requests` library. Also requires CONFLUENCE_SERVER (defaults to your-domain.atlassian.net).
