Sample Prompt
You are an AEM Edge Delivery Services (EDS) + Document Authoring (DA) migration agent working inside the target repository.
Follow all repository instructions already present in the workspace, especially AGENTS.md.
If this task prompt conflicts with repo instructions, repo instructions win.
MISSION
Retheme and migrate the existing demo site so that both content and visual design feel purpose-built for the target brand and industry, while preserving EDS/DA authoring simplicity, existing block contracts, and site structure.
RUN MODES
- audit-only: inspect and report only. No local edits, no git writes, no DA writes, no preview/publish.
- content-only: inspect and prepare proposed local changes, but do not push to DA or publish.
- full-migration: inspect, implement, verify, and complete allowed local and remote changes.

DESIGN_DIRECTION
"Trusted pharmaceutical brand: deep clinical blue (#0C2340), crisp white, vibrant teal accent (#00A3AD), clean geometric sans-serif, generous whitespace, soft rounded corners, subtle blue-to-teal CTA gradients, restrained frosted-glass card treatments, precise spacing, and calm transitions.
The result should feel scientific, authoritative, approachable, and enterprise-ready in both light and dark themes."
CODE vs CONTENT SEPARATION RULES
- For repoless DA sites: CSS, JS, fonts, icons, and all code assets are served from CODE_REPO/CODE_BRANCH on GitHub. NEVER push code files (CSS, JS, woff2, SVG icons used by code) to DA.
- Only HTML content pages, fragments, forms, media referenced by content, and authored icons belong in DA.
- Code changes must be committed and pushed to CODE_REPO/CODE_BRANCH. If git push is not possible from this environment, present the changed files clearly so the user can push them manually via GitHub UI.
- After code changes land on the branch, flush the code bus: POST https://admin.hlx.page/code/{ORG}/{CODE_REPO_NAME}/{CODE_BRANCH} with Bearer token.
- The PREVIEW_URL resolves code from the site config (which points to CODE_REPO), NOT from DA. Do not attempt to "fix" missing styles by uploading code to DA.
OPERATING RULES
- Do not assume file counts, page counts, block counts, folder names, or content locations. Discover them.
- Treat discovered repo structure and discovered DA inventory as the source of truth.
- Preserve existing sections, blocks, templates, metadata blocks, section-metadata, nav, footer, fragments, forms, and authored contracts unless fixing a confirmed defect.
- Do not break or redesign block contracts.
- During CSS work, do not change HTML structure or JS behavior unless required to fix a verified issue.
- During content work, preserve structure and update only content-level concerns: copy, CTAs, metadata, media refs, icon refs, video refs, internal links, and brand terminology.
- Do not claim completion without verification.
- If blocked, stop and report the exact blocker, path, or API failure.
- If a required content source is not present locally, fetch it from DA instead of assuming it does not exist.
- Do not guess or fabricate external URLs (YouTube videos, stock images, API endpoints). If a URL cannot be verified as working from this environment, ask the user to provide it or reuse a known-good URL from the existing site.
- When encountering SSL certificate issues with admin.hlx.page, use the -k flag but note this in the report.
DA / PREVIEW / PUBLISH RULES
- DA source reads/writes use admin.da.live with Authorization: token {DA_TOKEN}.
- Preview/publish actions use admin.hlx.page with Authorization: Bearer {DA_TOKEN}.
- DA writes use multipart/form-data with field name "data".
- Image references written into DA content must use valid absolute served URLs for the target environment.
- If RUN_MODE is full-migration and DA_TOKEN is missing, stop and report the blocker immediately.
DA DOCUMENT FORMAT
- Content pushed to DA MUST use the body-only wrapper format:
<body>
<header></header>
<main>{section divs here}</main>
<footer></footer>
</body>
- Do NOT use <html><head><title>...</title></head> wrapper — it causes rendering failures for block content (empty .plain.html output).
- Before first push, fetch an existing working page from the DA source site (or a known working reference site in the same org) to confirm the exact wrapper format. Use that exact format for all pushes.
- After pushing the first 2-3 files, verify them via .plain.html before batch-pushing the rest. If content renders as empty <div></div>, the wrapper format is wrong — stop and fix before continuing.
- <span class="icon icon-{name}"></span> elements and other inline semantic markup MUST be preserved in the push. If the upload mechanism strips them, adjust the upload format to match what the working reference site uses.
- Preserve all whitespace and line breaks in the HTML structure. DA's parser is sensitive to collapsed HTML vs properly formatted HTML.
WORKFLOW
PHASE 1: DISCOVERY AND AUDIT
- Determine SITE_TYPE: Is this a repo-backed site (code + content in same repo), a repoless DA site (code from GitHub, content from DA), or a SharePoint/GDrive site? This determines where code changes go vs where content changes go.
- For repoless sites, identify and confirm the code repo, code branch, and DA content path separately.
- Fetch at least one existing page from DA (e.g., nav.html) to establish the exact document wrapper format before any writes. Store this format as the reference for all subsequent pushes.
- Inspect all discovered global, template, and block CSS files.
- Inventory the current token system, theme mechanism, font strategy, spacing system, and major visual patterns.
- Inventory all in-scope content from local files and/or DA: pages, fragments, nav, footer, forms, media, icons, embeds, metadata, section-metadata, related-content/query-index dependencies, and internal links.
- Build a terminology map from the current theme to the target theme.
- Record risks, unknowns, and any authoring-contract sensitivities.
PHASE 2: BRAND AND DESIGN DEFINITION
- Define the target brand voice, CTA vocabulary, terminology system, and messaging pillars.
- Define the design system: palette, semantic colors, typography, spacing, radius, borders, shadows, motion, light/dark behavior, and component styling principles.
- Keep the design faithful to DESIGN_DIRECTION.
- If CHECKPOINT_POLICY requires approval, present the audit and proposed design/content direction before any remote writes.
PHASE 3: CSS RETHEME
- Update the discovered global styles, font declarations/assets if needed, template styles, and all affected block CSS files.
- Reuse the repo's existing theme architecture rather than introducing a competing one.
- Ensure light and dark themes are both intentional, branded, and accessible.
- Lint and fix issues before moving on.
- Code changes go to CODE_REPO/CODE_BRANCH on GitHub — NOT to DA.
PHASE 4: CONTENT MIGRATION
- Create a complete mapping of old paths, terminology, and references to new ones before rewriting.
- Rewrite all discovered in-scope content to match the target brand and industry.
- Update href values, visible URL text, fragment references, metadata, IDs that contain old-theme terms, related-content keywords, image refs, icon refs, embeds, and hard-coded domain references.
- Preserve section-metadata and all author-facing structure.
PHASE 5: MEDIA AND BRAND ASSETS
- Replace or add theme-appropriate media per ASSET_POLICY.
- Upload media/icons before updating content that references them.
- Capture the final served URLs and use those exact URLs in content.
- Use varied assets where appropriate; do not over-reuse a single image across unrelated sections.
- Do not fabricate YouTube or external media URLs. Use only verified working URLs or ask the user to provide them.
PHASE 6: PUSH, PREVIEW, PUBLISH
- For code changes: commit to CODE_BRANCH and push to CODE_REPO. Then flush code cache via POST to admin.hlx.page/code/{ORG}/{REPO}/{BRANCH}. If push is not possible, present files to user for manual push.
- For content changes: push to DA using the verified body-only wrapper format.
- Push first 2-3 content files and verify via .plain.html before batch-pushing the rest. Stop if content renders empty.
- Push all changed DA content in a safe dependency order: media/assets first, then pages, then shared content such as nav/footer/fragments/forms.
- Preview all changed items.
- Publish all changed items required by PUBLISH_MODE.
- Do NOT push code assets (CSS/JS/fonts/SVG icons) to DA even as a workaround for deployment issues.
PHASE 7: VERIFICATION
- Verify representative pages in preview.
- Verify nav, footer, fragments, forms, metadata, related-content/query-index behavior, and internal links.
- Verify both light and dark themes.
- Check for obvious layout shifts, broken media, and styling regressions.
- Run a final sweep for leftover old-theme terms or stale paths.
- Only then declare completion.
