Follow exact Cuddler procedures for common implementation jobs and verify the contract boundary each change affects.

Pick the right Cuddler Document Role by deciding whether the artifact's main job is the data model, the template contract, or the process/controller contract.
Open How to Choose a Document RoleCreate a new Cuddler Artifact Definition family with a synchronized Data definition plus Template and Process documents that consume the published standards.
Open Add a New Artifact TypePublish a canonical Document Role version with the right route, source JSON, and supporting publication signals.
Open Publish a Versioned Document RoleWrite prompts that are explicit, maintainable, and aligned with schema-first Cuddler workflows.
Open Structure Reusable PromptsApply Cuddler's default safety posture when rendering content that may contain unsafe HTML, scripts, or risky links.
Open Sanitize Untrusted ContentPermit external assets only when the render contract requires them and the trust boundary is explicit.
Open Allow External Assets SafelyHow-To guides are for moments when the outcome is clear but the safe sequence matters. Each guide keeps the responsible contract and verification point visible so a local fix does not create drift elsewhere.
Use these pages for implementation work such as creating a new artifact type, publishing a versioned Document Role, or making a rendering decision that affects security. Each guide stays focused on procedure and points back to the canonical standards pages when a rule needs to be authoritative.

When To Start Here
- You already know the target outcome and need the shortest path to it.
- You want a repeatable procedure rather than a conceptual explanation.
- You need implementation guidance that stays aligned with the public standards surface.
