Wix Headless
This skill connects Wix business services to a Wix Headless frontend. Its core job is to configure the Wix backend: infer the needed capabilities, install the Wix apps, seed the backend content, and produce an SDK-integration guide describing how to call Wix from the frontend.
What happens with the frontend depends on the project type and operation:
- Backend-only (self-managed, stripe, or a managed "just set up the backend" run) — the skill emits the SDK guide as its final output; the host owns the frontend, build, and hosting.
- Managed create / connect — the skill also owns the frontend: it scaffolds a new project (create) or attaches Wix to an existing one (connect), wires it to the backend using that same guide, builds, and releases to Wix. (There is no Designer or template library — the frontend is built ad-hoc to intent.)
On a backend-only run the skill does not own the project scaffolding. When the work needs a frontend, scaffold it according to user intent — framework and structure follow the prompt; the skill's job is the Wix backend plus the emitted SDK guide describing how to call Wix from whatever frontend exists, not choosing or generating the app. This is the norm for a stripe run: the project is provisioned via Stripe Projects (credentials land in
.env— seestripe/AUTHENTICATION.md), the skill configures the backend and emits the guide, and the live site is finalized perstripe/DEPLOYMENT.md— while the frontend is scaffolded and wired to intent, by the host.
Project types
The skill behaves identically across project types except for authentication and deployment, which are isolated in a per-type folder under references/:
| Project type | Hosting | Authentication & deployment live in |
|---|---|---|
managed |
Wix infrastructure (maintained by Wix) | references/managed/ |
self-managed |
the user's own host (TBD) | references/self-managed/ |
stripe |
the user's own host, provisioned via Stripe Projects | references/stripe/ |
