Overview

ConfluenceAssistant lets you search, create, update, and comment on Confluence pages using Atlassian MCP. It automatically detects your workspace configuration and formats content with Markdown, ensuring consistent and readable pages. Note: Jira tasks should be handled by jira-assistant.

How This Skill Works

The skill interfaces with Atlassian MCP to perform Confluence actions: search, create, update, and comment on pages. It auto-detects the appropriate workspace to ensure changes go to the correct Confluence instance and space. All content is formatted in Markdown for clean, consistent rendering.

When to Use It

• Updating an existing Confluence page
• Creating a new Confluence page
• Finding a specific page in Confluence
• Searching Confluence for relevant content

Quick Start

1. Step 1: State the action, e.g., 'create a Confluence page' or 'update Confluence'
2. Step 2: Provide required details such as page title, content in Markdown, or search keywords
3. Step 3: Confirm the action and review results

Best Practices

• Provide a precise page title and, if possible, the space or parent page to locate the right page
• Use Markdown-formatted content to take advantage of Confluence formatting features
• Auto-detect and confirm the target workspace to avoid cross-instance edits

• Keep updates idempotent by describing changes and including before/after when possible
