Code Overview to Confluence

This skill runs a progressive-disclosure code overview with the core han-coding:code-overview skill, lets the user review the resulting overview, and then publishes it to a Confluence location that the user must specify. It is a thin orchestrator: the overview work belongs to han-coding:code-overview, and the publishing work belongs to han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence. This skill only validates its inputs, runs the overview to a scratch file, gets the user's review and publish choice, and hands the file to the publisher.

han-coding:code-overview produces a single scratch file (the overview: what the code does, how it flows, where to start, and — in PR mode — what changed and what to watch when reviewing). It does not produce companion artifacts, so this skill publishes that one file as a single Confluence page — the single-page sibling of han-atlassian:investigate-to-confluence and han-atlassian:project-documentation-to-confluence, not the parent-plus-children tree of han-atlassian:plan-a-feature-to-confluence.

The five steps below are the whole skill. It does not resolve Confluence pages or call the Confluence MCP create/update tools itself; han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence owns all of that.

Step 1: Validate Inputs

Confirm the skill has everything it needs before spending effort on an overview:

1. Atlassian MCP reachable (hard requirement). Call mcp__claude_ai_Atlassian__getAccessibleAtlassianResources to confirm the server is connected and retrieve the cloud ID(s). If the tool is not available, the call errors, or it returns no accessible resources (typically an authentication or configuration problem), stop immediately. Tell the user this skill requires the Atlassian MCP server to be installed, configured, and authenticated, and that they can re-run it once it is connected. Do not fall back to a local-only run; for a local-only overview, point them at han-coding:code-overview. This preflight runs first so a missing server fails before any overview work begins.
2. A target to overview (optional). The target may be a file, directory, symbol, or pull request reference, and an optional size (small, medium, or large). All of this — together with the relevant conversation context — is forwarded to han-coding:code-overview verbatim in Step 2. A target is not required: with none given, han-coding:code-overview defaults to the current branch's changes. Do not resolve or classify the target here; that is han-coding:code-overview's job.
3. A Confluence destination. Confirm the request provides a target location: a Confluence page URL (to update that page, or create a child under it), or a space (key or name) plus an optional parent page. If none was provided, ask for one with AskUserQuestion, explaining plainly that the skill needs an exact destination because it does not search Confluence. Do not resolve the page tree here — only confirm a location was given. Carry it through to Step 5; han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence resolves it.

Step 2: Produce the Overview to a Scratch File

Invoke the han-coding:code-overview skill with the Skill tool, forwarding all provided context verbatim: the target (file, directory, symbol, or PR reference, or none for the current branch's changes), any size the user gave, and the relevant conversation context. Do not summarize, trim, or reinterpret the user's context; pass it through so han-coding:code-overview runs exactly as it would on its own (target resolution, mode and size selection, parallel codebase-explorer exploration, synthesis, and the readability-review pass).

han-coding:code-overview already writes its overview to a scratch file outside the repository and changes no code, so this skill adds no behavioral instructions — it only needs the resulting file. Capture the exact scratch-file path it wrote (for example ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/code-overview-<slug>.md). That markdown file is the source content for Confluence. Proceed to Step 3 once it finishes.

Step 3: Show the File for Review

Tell the user the exact scratch-file path of the generated overview so they can open and review it before deciding whether to publish. State plainly that the content has not been published anywhere yet, and that no code was changed.

Step 4: Confirm the Publish Choice

Publishing to Confluence puts the content where other people can see it, so require an explicit choice before posting. Ask with AskUserQuestion, restating the scratch-file path and the Confluence destination the user provided. Offer three options, listing the draft option first as the recommended default:

• "Yes, save it as a draft to edit later (recommended)" — published as an unpublished Confluence draft for the user to review, edit, and publish themselves. This is the default. (Publish mode: draft.)
• "Yes, publish it live now" — the page goes live immediately. (Publish mode: live.)
• "No, keep it local only" — nothing is published.

If the user keeps it local only, stop. Report the scratch-file path and state clearly that nothing was published to Confluence. Otherwise, record the chosen publish mode (draft or live) for Step 5.

Step 5: Publish with markdown-to-confluence

Invoke the han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence skill with the Skill tool, forwarding:

• the scratch-file markdown path captured in Step 2,
• the Confluence destination the user provided in Step 1 (the page URL, or the space plus optional parent page), passed through verbatim, and
• the publish mode the user chose in Step 4 (draft or live), stated explicitly so han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence does not re-ask.

han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence resolves the location, reads the file, creates or updates the page in the chosen mode, handles Mermaid diagrams, and reports the resulting page URL. Relay its result to the user: the created or updated page's URL and whether it went live or was saved as a draft. If publishing fails, report the error and confirm the scratch-file markdown is unchanged and intact.

Verification

1. Inputs validated: the Atlassian server was reachable and a Confluence location was provided — or the skill stopped before doing any work.
2. Overview produced to a scratch file: han-coding:code-overview ran with the full forwarded context, wrote the overview to a scratch file whose path was captured, and changed no code.
3. User reviewed: the scratch-file path was shown to the user before any publish.
4. Explicit choice obtained: the user chose draft, live, or local-only.
5. Publish delegated and reported: when the user chose to publish, han-atlassian:markdown-to-confluence created or updated the page in the chosen mode and its URL was relayed; when the user declined, only the scratch file exists.
