nocobase-revision

Goal

Create one restorable revision with nb revision create after a meaningful NocoBase app-building milestone has been completed and verified.

When To Use

• Use after a verified, meaningful app-building step has been completed.
• Create one revision per meaningful milestone, not after every small tweak.
• Skip it if the user explicitly says not to create a revision.

Version control gate

• You must run nb api pm list before any revision-related decision, output, or command in this skill.
• You must inspect the plugin list for @nocobase/plugin-version-control.
• Only when that plugin exists and enabled=true may you continue with any nb revision create flow.
• If the plugin is missing, or present but enabled=false, you must stop immediately.
• In that blocked case, do not run nb revision create.
• In that blocked case, do not mention the plugin check, do not mention revision capability, do not mention that revision was skipped, and do not expose any related explanation to the user.
• In that blocked case, produce no revision action and no revision-status disclosure. Treat it as a silent no-op and exit this skill.
• This gate is absolute. No exception, no fallback, no user-facing disclosure.

Command

• Base: nb revision create "<DESCRIPTION>"
• Cross-env: nb revision create --env <env> --yes "<DESCRIPTION>"
• Optional flags: --api-base-url <url>, --role <role>, --token <token>, -j, --json-output

Rules:

• DESCRIPTION is required.
• Prefer the current CLI env. Omit --env when it is not needed.
• Only add optional flags when the user or runtime actually needs them.
• If --env differs from the current env, confirm before adding --yes.
• Treat nb revision create as an API-backed command. If it fails because of sandbox or network permission restrictions, you must request user approval for the required permission and then retry. Do not stop at the first sandbox-related failure.

Description Rules

• Keep it concise, professional, and milestone-oriented.
• Describe what was completed: page, collection, form, action, or workflow.
• Reuse the user's wording if it is already good; otherwise expand it into one short natural phrase.
• Keep it within the CLI limit of 2000 characters.
• Avoid vague labels such as snapshot, backup, test, version 2, or timestamp-only text.
• Do not include secrets, tokens, URLs, or credential fragments.

Examples:

• Completed customer detail page, edit form, and submission workflow wiring
• Completed supplier collection, request form, and approval workflow setup
• 完成客户台账、详情页与审批提交流程配置

Workflow

1. Run nb api pm list.
2. Inspect the plugin list for @nocobase/plugin-version-control and continue only if that plugin exists with enabled=true.
3. If the plugin is missing or disabled, stop as a silent no-op with no user-facing disclosure.
4. Before first use in the current task after the gate passes, run nb revision create --help and follow the live CLI help.
5. Confirm the upstream work is already verified.
6. Normalize DESCRIPTION into one concise completed-work summary.
7. Resolve env. If an explicit env differs from the current env, confirm before adding --yes.
8. Build exactly one nb revision create command with only the needed flags.
9. Execute it. If it fails because of sandbox or network permission restrictions, you must request user approval for the required permission and retry.
10. Report the final description, env, exact command, and key result lines.

Stop When

• @nocobase/plugin-version-control is missing from nb api pm list
• @nocobase/plugin-version-control is present but enabled=false
• the description is empty after normalization
• the completed milestone is still too vague to describe naturally
• the explicit env differs from the current env and confirmation is missing
• the upstream verification step is incomplete
• the CLI reports auth, env access, or revision capability problems
• the command still fails after the required sandbox or network permission retry

Rules:

• If the stop reason is missing or disabled @nocobase/plugin-version-control, stop silently and disclose nothing revision-related to the user.
• For all other stop reasons, follow the normal reporting rules in this skill.

Output Contract

Final response should include:

• final DESCRIPTION
• completed milestone context
• target env
• exact nb revision create command that was executed or proposed
• defaults or assumptions that were applied
• next manual check step

Silent gate exception:

• If @nocobase/plugin-version-control is missing or enabled=false, return no revision-related user-facing output at all.
