Approve Blog

Approve Blog Post Skill

Approves a blog post draft for publishing by removing draft: true from the frontmatter.

When to Use

Activate when users:

• Say they're done editing a blog draft
• Want to approve or publish a blog post
• Ask to remove the draft flag from a blog post

Usage

/approve-blog <slug>

Where <slug> is the URL-friendly identifier of the blog post (e.g., my-post-title).

Process

Step 1: Verify the Draft Exists

Check that a draft review file exists:

cat .agents/drafts/blog-{{slug}}.review.json

If not found, list available drafts:

bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts drafts --type blog

Step 2: Approve the Draft

Run the approve command:

bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts approve --type blog --slug {{slug}}

This will:

1. Read the draft review file at .agents/drafts/blog-{{slug}}.review.json
2. Find the content file at the stored bundle path
3. Replace draft: true with draft: false in the frontmatter
4. Update the review file status to approved

Step 3: Confirm Approval

Show the user:

• Confirmation that the draft was approved
• The bundle path of the approved content
• Next steps (e.g., commit and deploy)

Example

User: /approve-blog my-experience-with-claude-code

Assistant: Approving the blog post...

bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts approve --type blog --slug my-experience-with-claude-code

Your blog post has been approved and is ready for publishing:

• Bundle path: content/blog/posts/2026-01-26-my-experience-with-claude-code/index.md
• The draft: true flag has been removed

To publish, commit and deploy your changes:

git add content/blog/posts/2026-01-26-my-experience-with-claude-code/
git commit -m "Publish: My Experience with Claude Code"
git push
