SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a single, guided first-run experience that takes users from an empty workspace to a live Showpane client portal, removing friction from setup, draft creation, preview, credentialing, and publish.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sequential onboarding wizard that orients the user, verifies local readiness, and resumes from checkpoints.
  • Draft creation and refinement using transcripts, templates, or brief descriptions, with slug suggestion and soft-retry for conflicts.
  • Local preview and publish flow including local dev-server checks, credential handling, inlined portal-preview and portal-deploy flows, and telemetry logging.
  • Use Case: A consultant runs the wizard after creating a workspace to generate a branded client portal from a meeting transcript, preview it locally, and publish to Showpane Cloud.

Quick Start

Run the portal-onboard wizard and follow the prompts to create, preview, and publish your first client portal.

Frequently Asked Questions about portal-onboard

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up and publish a client portal for the first time?

To publish a client portal for the first time, use a sequential onboarding wizard that verifies local readiness, creates a draft from templates or transcripts, previews locally, and deploys to the cloud. This guided workflow removes setup friction and tracks progress through checkpoints.

Can I create a portal draft directly from a meeting transcript?

Yes, you can create a portal draft directly from a meeting transcript, brief description, or template. The onboarding workflow uses your input content to generate the portal structure, suggests a slug, and applies soft-retry logic to resolve any naming conflicts automatically.

What is the best way to preview a portal locally before deploying to the cloud?

The best way to preview a portal locally is through an onboarding flow that runs local dev-server checks and handles credentials before invoking the preview process. This ensures your environment is fully validated and ready prior to executing the cloud deployment.

Does the portal onboarding process resume if it gets interrupted?

Yes, the portal onboarding process resumes if interrupted because it uses telemetry logging and checkpointed progress. This allows the sequential wizard to recover your workflow state and continue from the last successful local validation or deployment step.

Do I need to manage cloud credentials separately when deploying a portal?

No, you do not need to manage cloud credentials separately when deploying a portal because the onboarding workflow includes inline credential handling. The wizard directly manages authentication as part of the sequential publish flow to cloud infrastructure.

Why should I use a guided wizard instead of manually configuring a portal workspace?

You should use a guided wizard instead of manually configuring a portal workspace to avoid environment setup errors and ensure schema validation. The wizard orchestrates end-to-end creation, preview, and deployment, applying telemetry for immediate recovery from any local readiness failures.
