LightCMS
LightCMS is a Go-powered content management system built for the AI era. It's simultaneously AI-native (semantic search, built-in Claude-powered chat widget, MCP server for agent control), agentically controllable (Claude Code and any MCP client can read, write, publish, and bulk-import content via 106 MCP tools), and agentically updatable (the codebase is clean, well-structured Go — coding agents can safely extend it). For teams that want a CMS that works with AI rather than around it.
What's New in v6.0
| Feature | Summary |
|---|---|
| Content Approvals | Contributors submit content for approval; editors/admins approve or reject from /cm/approvals. Rejection comments auto-post to the discussion thread. |
| Contributor Role | New RBAC role between Viewer and Editor. Can create content + upload assets (pending), post comments, and submit for approval — but cannot publish directly or manage system settings. |
| Approval Workflows | Configurable trigger-based workflows (contributor, folder path, template ID, or tag). Sequential or concurrent mode with configurable approver lists. |
| Content Discussion | Inline comment thread at the bottom of every edit page. @mention autocomplete, live badge count, admin delete. |
| Tabbed Bottom Panel | Discussion, Version History, and Forks organized into tabs on the content edit page. |
| Approvals Dashboard | My Queue + Other Pending + Workflow Config at /cm/approvals. Sidebar badge shows pending count. |
| Dashboard Sections | Requiring Approvals and Recent Comments appear on the admin dashboard when relevant. |
| New Webhook Events | comment.created, content.pending_approval, asset.pending_review. |
| 14 new MCP tools | Full comment and approval lifecycle — list/create/delete comments, full workflow CRUD, list/get/submit/approve/reject/cancel approval requests. |
