Ran the bundled convert_markdown_to_wiki.py on a real sample doc: it silently turns **bold** text into wiki _italic_ (a genuine regex bug, not a style choice) and leaves standard GitHub-style leading-pipe tables completely unconverted, despite SKILL.md explicitly listing 'tables' among the elements it handles; everything else (headings, italics, links, lists, code blocks) converted correctly.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 4/10
  • Docs & honesty 2/5

What Confluence does

Downloads, uploads, and converts Confluence pages via bundled Python scripts plus an Atlassian MCP server, including Markdown-to-Wiki-Markup conversion and Mermaid diagram handling. Triggers on explicit Confluence tasks (download/upload/convert/sync pages), but real use requires a configured Atlassian MCP server and API credentials, and the bundled markdown converter mishandles bold text and standard GitHub-style tables.

How to install Confluence

git clone https://github.com/SpillwaveSolutions/confluence-skill
cd confluence-skill
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r . ~/.claude/skills/confluence

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Confluence skill free?
Yes. The skill itself is free from SpillwaveSolutions/confluence-skill. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
Does Confluence work with Claude Code?
We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 14, 2026. Verdict: Tested · Didn't pass. Ran the bundled convert_markdown_to_wiki.py on a real sample doc: it silently turns **bold** text into wiki _italic_ (a genuine regex bug, not a style choice) and leaves standard GitHub-style leading-pipe tables completely unconverted, despite SKILL.md explicitly listing 'tables' among the elements it handles; everything else (headings, italics, links, lists, code blocks) converted correctly.
How do I install Confluence?
Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
Can I use Confluence with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
