Polaris Features

NoteFor access, please talk to our Support team.

Polaris is designed to streamline everyday CMS operations through context-aware intelligence and CMS automation features. By combining guided execution with enterprise-grade governance, Polaris reduces manual effort while ensuring safety, predictability, and control across Contentstack workflows.

Context-Aware Intelligence

Polaris automatically understands the context of the page you are working on and scopes every interaction accordingly.

  • Inherits context from entries, assets, and the Visual Editor
  • Understands content type schemas and field structures
  • Identifies selected elements in the Visual Editor
  • Eliminates the need for manual explanations or setup

Real CMS Action Execution

Polaris is built to perform actual CMS operations, not just generate suggestions.

  • Updates entry fields such as titles, descriptions, and structured content
  • Modifies asset metadata including titles, descriptions, tags, and folders
  • Applies changes directly using Contentstack APIs
  • Executes actions that mirror what users can do through the UI

Preview-First Change Management

Polaris uses preview-first safeguards for all write operations.

  • Clearly displays current values and proposed updates
  • Allows users to confirm or cancel changes
  • Prevents accidental or unintended modifications
  • Ensures transparency and user control

Read vs. Write Action Separation

Polaris clearly distinguishes between informational requests and data-modifying actions.

  • Read actions (queries, explanations, content inspection) execute immediately
  • Write actions (updates, edits, metadata changes) require confirmation
  • Prevents silent or implicit data changes

Multi-Action Requests

Polaris supports complex workflows through a single prompt.

  • Handles multiple field updates in one request
  • Supports bulk asset metadata changes
  • Validates each action independently
  • Presents all proposed changes in a unified preview

Visual Editor Integration

Polaris integrates directly with the Visual Editor for truly contextual editing.

  • Automatically understands the selected page element
  • Maps visual elements to underlying entries and fields
  • Applies updates with real-time visual feedback
  • Maintains preview and confirmation safeguards

Permission-Aware Operations

Polaris enforces the same governance model as the Contentstack CMS.

  • Uses the logged-in user’s credentials
  • Respects role-based, entry-level, and field-level permissions
  • Prevents unauthorized actions
  • Clearly explains permission-related failures

Schema and Validation Awareness

Before applying changes, Polaris validates every request against CMS structure.

  • Checks content type schemas
  • Ensures field compatibility
  • Prevents invalid or unsupported updates
  • Reduces schema-related errors

Consistent Execution Model

Polaris executes tasks in a structured, step-by-step manner.

  • Breaks requests into discrete CMS-backed operations
  • Validates permissions, schema, and data integrity
  • Applies changes only after successful validation and approval
