# CMS Collection Setup

Create a new CMS collection with custom fields, relationships, and proper configuration.

## Important Note

**ALWAYS use Webflow MCP tools for all operations:**
- Use Webflow MCP's `webflow_guide_tool` to get best practices before starting
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_sites_tool` with action `list_sites` to identify available sites
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_sites_tool` with action `get_site` to retrieve site details and plan limits
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `get_collection_list` to check for naming conflicts
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `create_collection` to create the collection
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `create_collection_static_field` to create static fields
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `create_collection_option_field` to create option fields
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `create_collection_reference_field` to create reference/multi-reference fields
- Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `get_collection_details` to verify collection was created correctly
- DO NOT use any other tools or methods for Webflow operations
- All tool calls must include the required `context` parameter (15-25 words, third-person perspective)

## Instructions

### Phase 1: Site Selection & Discovery
1. **Get site information**: Use Webflow MCP's `data_sites_tool` with action `list_sites` to identify target site
2. **Confirm site**: Ask user to select site if multiple available
3. **Check plan limits**: Use Webflow MCP's `data_sites_tool` with action `get_site` to verify collection limits
4. **List existing collections**: Use Webflow MCP's `data_cms_tool` with action `get_collection_list` to check for conflicts
5. **Validate naming**: Ensure new collection name doesn't conflict with existing

### Phase 2: Requirements Gathering
6. **Get collection details**: Ask user for:
   - Collection display name (e.g., "Blog Posts")
   - Singular name (e.g., "Blog Post")
