Talking to Claude Code
Every non-trivial operation on an agntcms site happens through a conversation with Claude Code. This page is about how to phrase tasks so the agent gets them on the first try.
Principle#
No skill names, no command names. You state the task; the agent picks the skill, asks for missing pieces, and does the work.
The main rule: if you are not sure whether a request is allowed, ask. The worst case is that operation does not exist, talk to a developer. In most cases the answer is got it and the work is done.
What Claude Code can do#
Create a page from scratch.
create /contact — heading 'Get in touch', a form with name, email, and message, and our address below.The agent picks the right sections, fills the copy, opens the draft in preview.
Build a page from a free-form brief.
make a team page — three staff cards with photo, name, role, short bio. A short heading on top, a join-us call to action at the bottom.
The agent decides which sections to use (TeamGrid, Hero, CTA) and assembles the page.
Rewrite a section or a whole page.
rewrite the hero on the home page — focus on speed, not price.
make /about shorter and friendlier — the tone is too formal.Replace one section with another.
remove the pricing block on the home page and put a five-question FAQ about shipping in its place.
Reorder sections.
move testimonials above pricing on /pricing.Publish and roll back.
publish the team page draft.
roll /pricing back to before today's edits.Unpublish.
take /old-promo off the site but do not delete it — we might need it later.How to phrase well#
- Name the page. On the home page,
/pricing, the team page — any of these works. Do not say that page. - State a concrete result. Cut to two paragraphs beats improve. Switch to second person, drop the word 'client' beats make it warmer.
- If you are editing existing copy, say what is wrong. Too long, too formal, no call to action at the end.
- Do not be afraid of big tasks. The agent handles create a blog section with three posts about X, Y, Z as easily as fix a typo.
What the agent does on its own#
- Creates or updates a draft. The published version is not touched without your command.
- Snapshots the previous version before publishing — rollback is always available.
- Asks for confirmation before deleting a page or making a sweeping change.
- Tells you if the request is not one of the known operations.
What the agent will not do#
- Change the design. Colours, fonts, and section layout are a developer's job. If a whole section looks wrong, that is a developer ticket.
- Invent new section types silently. If the task needs a section type that does not exist in the project (for example, you have no video block), the agent says so.
- Touch the live site directly. The agent works with drafts and published files in the project. Changes reach visitors only after deploy — see Publishing and deploy.
If something goes wrong#
Every publish stores a snapshot of the previous version. Say: roll
/name back to the previous version. The agent shows the snapshot list and asks which one to restore.If you dislike an edit before publishing, it is still just a draft. Say undo the last changes on
/name or return the hero to what it was before your edit.
