+# CLI: Migrate HTML RTE to JSON RTE – Agent guide
+
+**Universal entry point** for contributors and AI agents. Detailed conventions live in **`skills/*/SKILL.md`**.
+
+## What this repo is
+
+| Field | Detail |
+|--------|--------|
+| **Name:** | [cli-cm-migrate-rte](https://github.com/contentstack/cli-cm-migrate-rte) (`@contentstack/cli-cm-migrate-rte`) |
+| **Purpose:** | **oClif** plugin for **Contentstack CLI** (`csdx`) to migrate HTML RTE fields to JSON RTE using serializers and DOM parsing. |
+| **Out of scope:** | Not a general-purpose CLI—extends the Contentstack CLI command set only. |
+
+## Tech stack (at a glance)
+
+| Area | Details |
+|------|---------|
+| Language | JavaScript (Node **≥ 18**); commands under **`src/commands/`** |
+| Build | oClif manifest (`oclif manifest` in `prepack`); no separate compile step for app code |
+| Tests | **Mocha** + **nyc** — `npm test` → `test/**/*.test.js` with `test/setup.js` |
+| Lint / coverage | **ESLint** with `eslint-config-oclif` (run `npx eslint .` if no script) |
+| CI | `.github/workflows/unit-test.yml`, `check-version-bump.yml`, `sca-scan.yml`, `policy-scan.yml`, `issues-jira.yml` |
+
+## Commands (quick reference)
+
+| Command type | Command |
+|--------------|---------|
+| Test | `npm test` |
+| Lint (manual) | `npx eslint .` (project uses ESLint 8 + oClif config) |
+
+## Where the documentation lives: skills
+
+| Skill | Path | What it covers |
+|-------|------|----------------|
+| **Development workflow** | [`skills/dev-workflow/SKILL.md`](skills/dev-workflow/SKILL.md) | oClif, Husky, versioning, CLI release |
+| **Migrate RTE plugin** | [`skills/cli-migrate-rte/SKILL.md`](skills/cli-migrate-rte/SKILL.md) | Commands, serializers, jsdom usage |
+| **Testing** | [`skills/testing/SKILL.md`](skills/testing/SKILL.md) | Mocha, nock, fixtures |
+| **Code review** | [`skills/code-review/SKILL.md`](skills/code-review/SKILL.md) | PR checklist for CLI behavior |
+
+## Using Cursor (optional)
+
+If you use **Cursor**, [`.cursor/rules/README.md`](.cursor/rules/README.md) only points to **`AGENTS.md`**—same docs as everyone else.

+
+# Migrate RTE plugin – cli-cm-migrate-rte
+
+## When to use
+
+- Changing migration logic, stack entry updates, or `@contentstack/json-rte-serializer` usage
+- Debugging jsdom-based HTML transforms
+
+## Instructions
+
+### Dependencies
+
+- Relies on **`@contentstack/cli-command`**, **`@contentstack/cli-utilities`**, and **`@contentstack/json-rte-serializer`**—pin versions per Contentstack CLI compatibility matrix.
+
+### Command UX
+
+- Short name **`MGRTRTE`** is configured under `csdxConfig`—keep help text and flags aligned with Contentstack CLI standards.
+
+### Safety
+
+- Migrations mutate content—prefer dry-run or backup guidance in docs when adding destructive paths; validate on copies first.

+
+# Code review – cli-cm-migrate-rte
+
+## When to use
+
+- Reviewing migration logic or dependency bumps on `@contentstack/*` packages
+
+## Instructions
+
+### Checklist
+
+- **Safety**: Migration cannot silently corrupt entries; edge cases covered by tests.
+- **CLI contract**: Flags, prompts, and exit codes match oClif expectations and docs.
+- **Deps**: `@contentstack/cli-*` versions aligned with the CLI release train.
+- **Tests**: `npm test` green; new behavior has Mocha coverage.
+
+### Severity hints
+
+- **Blocker**: Data loss risk, failing tests, or broken manifest/readme generation.
+- **Major**: Missing tests for HTML edge cases or serializer upgrades.
+- **Minor**: Logging, messages, internal structure.

+---
+
+# Development workflow – cli-cm-migrate-rte
+
+## When to use
+
+- Adding or renaming commands under `src/commands/`
+- Preparing `npm pack` / publish with oClif manifest
+
+## Instructions
+
+### oClif
+
+- Commands are discovered from **`./src/commands`** (`package.json` `oclif.commands`).
+- **`prepack`** runs `oclif manifest` and `oclif readme`—ensure generated files stay consistent with git.
+
+### Versioning
+
+- **`npm version`** hook updates README via oClif—follow semver for CLI consumers.
+
+### Node
+
+- **`engines.node`** is **≥ 18**—test on supported Node LTS.
+
+### Husky
+
+- **`prepare`** sets up Husky—hooks run in dev after install.

+description: Use for Mocha tests, nyc coverage, and test/setup.js patterns in cli-cm-migrate-rte.
+---
+
+# Testing – cli-cm-migrate-rte
+
+## When to use
+
+- Adding tests under `test/**/*.test.js`
+- Mocking HTTP with **nock** for CLI flows
+
+## Instructions
+
+### Runner
+
+- **`npm test`** runs Mocha with `test/setup.js` and **nyc** (coverage check relaxed via `--check-coverage=false` in script—still collect locally).
+
+### Structure
+
+- Keep one concern per test file; use fixtures for HTML/RTE samples instead of huge inline strings when possible.
+
+### Integration
+
+- Heavy integration tests may need CLI auth mocks—never commit API keys; use nock or env stubs.
