Update an existing article

  1. Confirm the workspace with authoring_context.
  2. Find and read the article, including its current revision.
  3. Agree on the intended edit with the person requesting it.
  4. Submit an update proposal with that revision and a stable idempotency key.
  5. Open the returned review link in the Protodesk dashboard.
  6. A person reviews and approves or rejects the proposal.
Submission does not modify the article. Approval applies the content change. If the article is published, that approval updates its live content; if it is a draft, it remains unpublished.

Create new articles

The assistant submits candidates together as an article set. A reviewer checks each candidate’s content, collection, locale, slug, tags, and featured state. Approval creates unpublished drafts, which can then follow the team’s normal publishing process.

Resolve conflicts

If the article changed after the assistant read it, do not force the old proposal through. Read the latest revision, compare the intended change, and create a new proposal after review.

Keep the boundary clear

The assistant can prepare content and submit proposals. The adapter has no approval or publication tool. It also does not clone repositories itself: any repository context used to draft content must already be authorized in the assistant’s environment. Keep customer-facing articles free of credentials, private implementation details, and unverified feature claims. Use a review note to identify anything that still needs confirmation.
