confluence-cf

Confluence CLI built for AI agents — pure JSON output, semantic exit codes, 200+ auto-generated commands, and built-in jq filtering.

Give your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or custom bots) reliable, token-efficient access to Confluence Cloud.

Install

npm install -g confluence-cf

Why cf?

# Full Confluence response: ~8,000 tokens
cf pages get --id 12345

# With cf's filtering: ~50 tokens
cf pages get --id 12345 --fields id,title --jq '{id: .id, title: .title}'

• All output is JSON — stdout for data, stderr for errors, always
• Semantic exit codes — 0=ok, 2=auth, 3=not_found, 5=rate_limited — agents can branch without parsing
• 200+ commands from the official Confluence OpenAPI spec, synced daily
• Batch operations — N API calls in one process via cf batch
• Self-describing — cf schema lets agents discover commands at runtime
• Workflow helpers — cf workflow move, cf workflow copy, cf workflow archive

Quick start

  {"command":"pages get","args":{"id":"12345"},"jq":".title"},
