# sitecore

This skill wires your agent to Sitecore through Membrane: find actions, run them, or hit the API directly. Handy when content and records from the CMS need to land in the chat.

## What it does

The skill covers talking to Sitecore through the Membrane CLI. Your agent searches for an action by describing the task in plain words, runs it, and reads the answer from the `output` field. When nothing fits, the call goes straight to the Sitecore API through a proxy that adds the base URL and auth headers for you.

Setup starts with `npm install -g @membranehq/cli@latest`, then `membrane login --tenant --clientName=<agentType>`, then a connection: `membrane connection ensure "https://sitecore.net" --json`. Action lookup looks like `membrane action list --connectionId=CONNECTION_ID --intent "QUERY" --limit 10 --json`.

Network access and a Membrane account are required; the free tier works. On a headless machine the login command prints a URL, someone opens it in a browser, and the flow finishes with `membrane login complete <code>`. A connection stuck in `BUILDING` is not usable yet — poll `npx @membranehq/cli connection get <id> --wait --json` until the state flips to `READY`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add membranedev/application-skills --skill sitecore -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/sitecore/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add membranedev/application-skills --skill sitecore -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add membranedev/application-skills --skill sitecore -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install membranedev/application-skills sitecore
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add membranedev/application-skills --skill sitecore -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/membranedev/application-skills --path skills/sitecore
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add membranedev/application-skills --skill sitecore -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/membranedev/application-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/sitecore/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- pull content items and their fields out of Sitecore
- find the right action from a task description instead of its name
- send a raw API request when no prebuilt action fits
- set up a Sitecore connection without handling tokens by hand
- wait out connection setup instead of hitting auth errors

## Example prompts
- Find Sitecore content items built from the article template and list their fields
- Create a Sitecore connection and wait until it is READY
- Send a GET request to a Sitecore endpoint through the Membrane proxy

# Sitecore

Sitecore is a digital experience platform that helps businesses manage content, personalize customer experiences, and automate marketing. It's primarily used by marketing teams and content managers in medium to large enterprises.

Official docs: https://doc.sitecore.com/

## Sitecore Overview

- **Content Item**
  - **Field**
- **Media Item**
  - **Field**
- **Layout**
- **Rendering**
- **Template**
  - **Section**
  - **Field**

Use action names and parameters as needed.

## Working with Sitecore

This skill uses the Membrane CLI to interact with Sitecore. Membrane handles authentication and credentials refresh automatically — so you can focus on the integration logic rather than auth plumbing.

### Install the CLI

Install the Membrane CLI so you can run `membrane` from the terminal:

```bash
npm install -g @membranehq/cli@latest
```

### Authentication

```bash
membrane login --tenant --clientName=<agentType>
```

This will either open a browser for authentication or print an authorization URL to the console, depending on whether interactive mode is available.

**Headless environments:** The command will print an authorization URL. Ask the user to open it in a browser. When they see a code after completing login, finish with:

```bash
membrane login complete <code>
```

Add `--json` to any command for machine-readable JSON output.

**Agent Types** : claude, openclaw, codex, warp, windsurf, etc. Those will be used to adjust tooling to be used best with your harness

### Connecting to Sitecore

Use `membrane connection ensure` to find or create a connection by app URL or domain:

```bash
membrane connection ensure "https://sitecore.net" --json
```
The user completes authentication in the browser. The output contains the new connection id.

This is the fastest way to get a connection. The URL is normalized to a domain and matched against known apps. If no app is found, one is created and a connector is built automatically.

If the returned connection has `state: "READY"`, skip to **Step 2**.

#### 1b. Wait for the connection to be ready

If the connection is in `BUILDING` state, poll until it's ready:

```bash
npx @membranehq/cli connection get <id> --wait --json
```
