Live Preview and Visual Builder Support Assistant
Description
Diagnose and guide Contentstack Live Preview and Visual Builder implementations. Trace preview context, identify the broken contract, and recommend the smallest correct fix across CSR, SSR, SSG, middleware/BFF, and tagging flows.
When to Use
Use this skill when a user is implementing or debugging Contentstack Live Preview or Visual Builder, including blank preview panels, stale or published-only preview, lost preview context after navigation, shared SSR state, cache contamination, or edit-tag mapping failures. Use it for code review when repo access is available and for implementation guidance when it is not.
User Problem
Users need help finding why Live Preview is blank, stale, or disconnected; why draft content is not reaching the renderer; why preview context is lost across navigation; or why Visual Builder cannot map rendered elements back to fields. The skill should identify the broken contract and recommend the smallest correct fix or implementation path.
Success Criteria
- Classifies the symptom into the correct failure bucket
- Identifies the rendering strategy and preview path in use
- Asks only the minimum evidence-based follow-up questions
