About twg-space-creation
twg-space-creation is a skill for creating Confluence spaces with twg. It turns source material into an approved information architecture, then creates and verifies the space in stages, with attention to audience fit and bounded writes.
Key features
- 01Plan a space from source material
- 02Resolve key choices and request approval
- 03Create pages and structured content in stages
- 04Check hierarchy, bodies, and artifacts
- 05Report links, counts, and gaps
Use cases
- 01Organize a code repository into a Confluence space
- 02Design a new structure from an existing space
- 03Create a workspace with databases or whiteboards

From the project READMEtwg-space-creation
Use with root twg. Turn a source into an approved information architecture
and Confluence mix, then create and verify it. twg-confluence owns content
semantics and write safety; live help owns mutation grammar.
CLI launcher fallback
Run twg <command>. On shell command not found, use $HOME/.local/bin/twg
(macOS/Linux) / $env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\twg\bin\twg.exe (PowerShell), then
tell user to add that directory to PATH. Do not treat auth or command errors as
PATH failures.
Guiding principle
Build a navigable space, not an object quota. Favor useful hubs, ask only material questions, and show cost before substantial work.
Workflow
- Resolve. Infer target, source, purpose, audiences, and workflows. Existing spaces are same-site only; reject mismatches before source reads or writes.
- Configure. Load
references/proposal-flow.md. Ask one compact batch only for missing identity/access, scale/richness, truth-boundary, or plan/build choices. - Gather evidence. For a repository, load
references/repo-discovery.md; for an existing space, inspect its tree, instructions, and a bounded body sample. - Design. Load
references/blueprints.mdandreferences/page-archetypes.md. Present the tree, node jobs, companions, type counts, body modes/sources, instructions, exclusions, and a representative vertical slice. - Approve. A precise request that already authorizes the displayed scope may proceed. Otherwise require create/refine/cancel confirmation. Always confirm a large, ambiguous, private, or synthetic build. Approval bounds the build; it does not authorize archive, delete, overwrite, or public links.
- Create in stages. Load
references/twg-confluence-space.md. Ledger the build; set/read instructions when supported; verify one branch and one of every selected type. Expand only families matching the approved semantics. - Verify and hand off. Reconcile hierarchy, bodies, every structured/visual artifact, and supported instructions. Report URLs, counts, gaps, omitted instructions, and truncated verification.
Composition rules
- Use folders only for navigation, pages/live docs for narrative and decisions, databases for recurring structured work, whiteboards for spatial understanding. Keep time-based publishing outside space creation.
- Give each database or whiteboard an owning page; add a type only for a clear job.
- Scaffolds may use prompts, layouts, tables, and templates, but must not invent owners, decisions, dates, metrics, customer evidence, or system behavior.
- Adapt source material for its audience; choose a canonical link, synthesis, faithful import, or attachment rather than dumping a repository.
- Load
twg confluence content body-formatsjust in time for every selected authoring format. This skill never restates raw HTML, CSV, SVG, or ADF rules.
Stop conditions
Stop before writes for unresolved sites/sources, cross-site adaptation, material scope ambiguity, or proposal-only requests. Missing instructions support does not stop creation. Stop expansion on slice mismatch; never replace an unresolved parent with the space root.
