CMS Changelog Sync
Push draft release notes to Strapi (release-notes content type). Docs changelog stays full; CMS uses committed staging with popup-sized copy.
Architecture
Three separate steps — stop for human review between each:
changelog/index.mdx ← docs source of truth (full EN)
│
▼ Step 1: pnpm cms:prepare:en
staging/en/changelog/index.mdx ← simplified popup EN → **review & approve**
│
▼ Step 2: pnpm cms:prepare:locales
staging/{zh,ja,ko,fr,ru,es}/… ← translated from staging EN → **review & approve**
│
▼ Step 3: pnpm cms:preview → cms:sync (only after user confirms)
Strapi CMS (draft) → manual Publish → published-versions.json
Never edit docs zh/changelog/ for CMS. Never auto-publish in Strapi. Never use pnpm translate for CMS — that pipeline is for Mintlify docs only.
Three-step workflow (local)
| Step | Command | What it does | Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Simplify EN | pnpm cms:prepare:en -- --force v0.26.0 | docs → LLM → staging/en/ | Review EN staging |
| 2. Translate | pnpm cms:prepare:locales -- --force v0.26.0 | staging/en/ → staging/{zh,ja,ko,fr,ru,es}/ | Review locale staging |
| 3. Push CMS | pnpm cms:preview then pnpm cms:sync | staging → Strapi drafts | Strapi review → cms:publish |
pnpm cms:prepare without --en-only / --translate-only prints help and exits — use the step-specific scripts above.
Translation workflow (CMS staging)
Step 2 only. Input = simplified EN staging, not docs changelog.
staging/en/changelog/index.mdx ← input (Step 1 output, human-approved)
│
▼ pnpm cms:prepare:locales -- v0.26.0
staging/zh|ja|ko|fr|ru|es/changelog/… ← output (popup copy per locale, ready to sync)
│
▼ pnpm cms:sync (Step 3, after user confirms)
Strapi release-notes (draft)
Mintlify docs (pnpm translate) | CMS popup (pnpm cms:prepare:locales) | |
|---|---|---|
| English source | changelog/index.mdx (full docs) | staging/en/changelog/index.mdx (simplified popup) |
| Output path | zh/changelog/index.mdx, etc. | staging/zh/changelog/index.mdx, etc. |
| Purpose | Docs site | Strapi in-app notification |
| Mix pipelines? | No | No |
Key points:
cms:prepare:localesdoes not re-simplify English — it reads existingstaging/en/only- If staging EN is missing the version, translate fails — run
cms:prepare:enfirst - Target locales: zh, ja, ko, fr, ru, es (see
cms-config.json) --forcere-translates existing locale blocks (common after manual EN edits)
Environment (.env.local)
| Variable | Used by | Notes |
|---|---|---|
TRANSLATE_API_KEY | prepare | Same as pnpm translate |
TRANSLATE_API_BASE_URL | prepare | e.g. https://api.deepseek.com |
TRANSLATE_API_MODEL | prepare | e.g. deepseek-v4-pro |
CMS_BASE_URL | sync, delete-drafts | e.g. https://cms.comfy.org |
CMS_API_TOKEN | sync, delete-drafts | Strapi API token |
CMS_PROJECT | optional | Default comfyui; also --project cloud on CLI |
CI: CMS_BASE_URL / TRANSLATE_API_BASE_URL → GitHub Variables; tokens → Secrets.
Simplification rules (EN popup)
Prompt: .github/scripts/cms/cms-simplify-prompt.ts
Config: .github/scripts/cms/cms-config.json → simplify
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Total bullets per version | up to 10 (max_bullets_total: 10) |
| Section headings max | 3 (max_sections: 3) |
| Section order | New Open-Source Model Support → New Node Updates → Partner Node Updates |
| Words per version | ~60–120 |
| Bullet format | [**Name**](pr_url): 6–12 words with one key trait |
| PR links | Keep when source has them; never invent URLs |
| New Node Updates | Include meaningful entries from source New Nodes section (workflows, sockets, multimodal nodes) |
| Drop | Bug fixes, performance, pure Load3D plumbing, internal refactors, ComfyUI-WIKI dependency bumps (see below) |
Style: principle-only prompt in cms-simplify-prompt.ts (no concrete version examples — avoids LLM contamination).
ComfyUI-WIKI commits (omit from changelog)
When curating changelog/index.mdx from ComfyUI git history, do not add bullets for commits routinely opened by ComfyUI-WIKI — they are dependency/content syncs, not core release features:
| Skip | Typical commit / PR pattern |
|---|---|
| Embedded docs | chore: update embedded docs to v…, comfyui-embedded-docs in requirements.txt |
| Workflow templates | chore: update workflow templates to v…, comfyui-workflow-templates in requirements.txt |
| Model blueprints | Add new model blueprints, blueprint starter workflows in template library |
Also omit standalone frontend package semver bumps unless tied to a user-visible fix worth its own bullet. CMS simplify must never promote WIKI-only items into popup copy even if they appear in the full docs block.
Example staging shape (placeholders only):
**New Open-Source Model Support**
* [**Model Name**](source_url): Short description with 1–2 traits from the release data
**New Node Updates**
* [**Node Name**](source_url): What the node does and why it matters
**Partner Node Updates**
* [**Partner Node**](source_url): Partner scope and capability from the release data
Sync adds header: # ComfyUI vX.Y.Z via format-cms-content.ts.
Projects (comfyui + cloud)
cms:prepare may generate both projects so staging stays mirrored. For cms:sync and cms:publish, agents must treat comfyui as the default project and pass --project comfyui. Only sync or publish cloud after the user explicitly confirms cloud, using --project cloud.
Same changelog content; Strapi project field and CMS header differ (# ComfyUI vs # Cloud).
| Project | Staging path | CMS header |
|---|---|---|
comfyui | staging/{locale}/… | # ComfyUI vX.Y.Z |
cloud | staging/cloud/{locale}/… | # Cloud vX.Y.Z |
Prepare runs LLM once on comfyui, then copies staging to cloud. Sync/publish must be project-scoped by agents: --project comfyui first, then --project cloud only after explicit cloud approval.
Single project: --project comfyui, --project cloud, or CMS_PROJECT=<project>.
Mark a version high attention:
pnpm cms:set-attention -- cloud v0.24.0 high --save
Commands
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
pnpm cms:prepare:en | Step 1 — LLM simplify docs EN → staging/en/ (no translation) |
pnpm cms:prepare:locales | Step 2 — translate staging/en/ → staging/{zh,ja,ko,fr,ru,es}/ (does not re-simplify EN) |
pnpm cms:preview -- v0.25.1 | Step 3a — Dry-run Strapi push |
pnpm cms:sync -- v0.25.1 | Step 3b — Push/update drafts (run only after user confirms staging) |
pnpm cms:publish -- v0.25.1 | Publish + refresh published-versions.json |
pnpm cms:prepare | Prints three-step help and exits when no mode flag is passed |
pnpm cms:set-attention -- cloud v0.24.0 high | Set attention low/high in Strapi |
pnpm cms:delete-drafts --preview | List deletable Strapi drafts |
pnpm cms:delete-drafts | Delete drafts (keeps published) |
Flags (after --):
--force— re-simplify/re-translate even if staging has the version; on sync, update already-published CMS entries (default skips published)--preview/--dry-run— no API writes--project cloud— single project only (default = both)v0.25.1— explicit version(s)
Env:
CMS_SYNC_ALL=1— include already-published versions (backfill)- Without it, local default = all unpublished EN versions per
published-versions.json
Requires Bun. Loads .env.local automatically.
Standard workflow
New release version
-
Add full
<Update>block tochangelog/index.mdx(docs quality — unchanged). -
Step 1 — Simplify EN — review before translating:
pnpm cms:prepare:en -- --force v0.25.1Inspect:
.github/scripts/cms/staging/en/changelog/index.mdx→ stop until approved -
Step 2 — Translate — from approved staging EN only:
pnpm cms:prepare:locales -- v0.25.1 # first translate pnpm cms:prepare:locales -- --force v0.25.1 # re-translate after EN editsInspect:
.github/scripts/cms/staging/zh/changelog/index.mdx(and other locales) → stop until approved -
Step 3 — Push ComfyUI drafts (only after user confirms staging):
pnpm cms:preview -- --project comfyui v0.25.1 pnpm cms:sync -- --project comfyui v0.25.1 -
Publish ComfyUI after Strapi review:
pnpm cms:publish --preview -- --project comfyui v0.25.1 pnpm cms:publish -- --project comfyui v0.25.1 -
Cloud is separate: run cloud preview/sync/publish only after the user explicitly confirms cloud, using
--project cloud. -
Commit
.github/scripts/cms/staging/and.github/scripts/cms/published-versions.jsonafter publish.
Catch up all unpublished versions locally
pnpm cms:prepare:en -- --force # Step 1: all unpublished EN
pnpm cms:prepare:locales -- --force # Step 2: all locales
pnpm cms:preview
pnpm cms:sync # Step 3: after review
After prompt or config changes
Re-run with --force. Staging without --force skips existing <Update> blocks.
Version selection logic
| Context | Versions processed |
|---|---|
| Local, no args | EN not in published-versions.json (≥ min_version 0.21.0) |
Local + CMS_SYNC_ALL=1 | All ≥ min_version |
Explicit v0.25.1 | That version only |
CI (CMS_SYNC_BEFORE / CMS_SYNC_AFTER) | New/changed <Update> blocks in git diff only |
cms:sync skips locales already published per registry. Published EN in CMS is never overwritten.
Key files
| Path | Role |
|---|---|
changelog/index.mdx | Full docs EN changelog |
.github/scripts/cms/staging/ | CMS popup content generated by prepare; review and commit |
.github/scripts/cms/cms-config.json | Locales, min version, simplify limits |
.github/scripts/cms/published-versions.json | Published registry (commit after Strapi publish) |
.github/scripts/cms/prepare-cms-changelog.ts | Prepare pipeline |
.github/scripts/cms/sync-to-strapi.ts | Strapi draft sync |
.github/scripts/cms/publish-cms-drafts.ts | Draft → published |
.github/scripts/cms/delete-cms-drafts.ts | Clean bad drafts |
.github/workflows/cms-changelog-sync.yml | CI: prepare → preview → sync on main (changelog paths only) |
Agent checklist
When user asks to update CMS release notes:
- Confirm
changelog/index.mdxhas the new<Update>block - Omit ComfyUI-WIKI items (embedded docs, workflow templates, model blueprints) unless user explicitly asks
- Run
pnpm cms:prepare:en; show staging EN → wait for user approval - Run
pnpm cms:prepare:locales(notcms:prepare:en) → wait for user approval - Run
pnpm cms:preview -- --project comfyui ...thenpnpm cms:sync -- --project comfyui ...only after user confirms staging - Run cloud
cms:sync/cms:publishonly after separate explicit cloud confirmation - Remind: Strapi publish is manual; then
--writeon published-versions - Commit
.github/scripts/cms/staging/together withpublished-versions.jsonafter publish - Do not shorten docs changelog for CMS — staging is separate
- Do not run bulk
CMS_SYNC_ALLprepare/sync without user consent (many API calls)
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Fix |
|---|---|
| Only one version simplified | Old behavior was latest-only; now defaults to unpublished. Use CMS_SYNC_ALL=1 for all. |
| Staging skipped | Version already exists — add --force |
Strapi VERSION shows - | Bulk sync bug: version field null; delete drafts and re-sync |
| Delete draft 500 | Use pnpm cms:delete-drafts (locale-only DELETE, not status=draft) |
English base draft missing on locale sync | Ensure EN draft exists first; sync creates EN before other locales |
| Background prepare still running | pkill -f prepare-cms-changelog.ts |
