# Approve Blog Post Skill
Approves a blog post draft for publishing by removing `draft: true` from the frontmatter.
## When to Use
Activate when users:
- Say they're done editing a blog draft
- Want to approve or publish a blog post
- Ask to remove the draft flag from a blog post
## Usage
```
/approve-blog <slug>
```
Where `<slug>` is the URL-friendly identifier of the blog post (e.g., `my-post-title`).
## Process
### Step 1: Verify the Draft Exists
Check that a draft review file exists:
```bash
cat .agents/drafts/blog-{{slug}}.review.json
```
If not found, list available drafts:
```bash
bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts drafts --type blog
```
### Step 2: Approve the Draft
Run the approve command:
```bash
bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts approve --type blog --slug {{slug}}
```
This will:
1. Read the draft review file at `.agents/drafts/blog-{{slug}}.review.json`
2. Find the content file at the stored bundle path
3. Replace `draft: true` with `draft: false` in the frontmatter
4. Update the review file status to `approved`
### Step 3: Confirm Approval
Show the user:
- Confirmation that the draft was approved
- The bundle path of the approved content
- Next steps (e.g., commit and deploy)
## Example
**User:** /approve-blog my-experience-with-claude-code
**Assistant:** Approving the blog post...
```bash
bun run src/agents/cli/agent-cli.ts approve --type blog --slug my-experience-with-claude-code
```
Your blog post has been approved and is ready for publishing:
- Bundle path: `content/blog/posts/2026-01-26-my-experience-with-claude-code/index.md`
- The `draft: true` flag has been removed
To publish, commit and deploy your changes:
```bash
git add content/blog/posts/2026-01-26-my-experience-with-claude-code/
git commit -m "Publish: My Experience with Claude Code"
git push
```
