Kodexa configuration works best when it is treated as code: reviewed in Git, validated before deployment, and promoted through environments with the same discipline as application changes. Claude Code can help with that workflow through the Kodexa Metadata Skills plugin. The plugin gives Claude Code resource-specific guidance for authoring Kodexa metadata on disk, including Activity Plans, task templates, data definitions, data forms, knowledge resources, project templates, modules, service bridges, prompt templates, and KDX CLI sync workflows.Documentation Index

Use this workflow when your Kodexa configuration lives in a Git repository or you want it to. For one-off operations, use the KDX CLI resource operations directly.
The Workflow
The normal loop is: Claude Code helps you work inside the repository. The KDX CLI is still the tool that talks to Kodexa.What Claude Code Should Help With
Use the skills for resource authoring, cleanup, and review:| Work | Skill to use | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Model a business process | activity-plan | Activity Plan YAML with steps, inputs, dependencies, and actions |
| Define human review work | task-template and data-form | Task template YAML and V2 data form JSON |
| Model extracted business data | data-definition | Data definition YAML |
| Adapt behavior by document context | knowledge-system | Feature types, item types, knowledge sets, and project knowledge items |
| Connect to external systems | service-bridge | Service bridge YAML for API proxy endpoints |
| Package custom logic | module | Module metadata and implementation layout |
| Deploy and validate | kdx-cli | Sync, validate, dry-run, push, and deploy commands |
What Stays In Git
A typical metadata repository includes:sync-config.yaml, and .sync-state/. Do not commit API keys, secrets, generated logs, or local scratch files.
Human Review Still Matters
Claude Code should draft and modify configuration, but a developer or platform owner should still review:- Business meaning: Does the Activity Plan match the real process?
- References: Do task templates, forms, data definitions, modules, bridges, and knowledge sets exist in the target organization?
- Scope: Are changes limited to the intended project or reusable resource?
- Safety: Are secrets referenced by name instead of written into YAML?
- Deployment behavior: Does
kdx sync push --dry-runorkdx sync deploy --dry-runshow only the expected changes?
