Scaffold a New Sitecore Marketplace App

You are helping the user scaffold a new Sitecore Marketplace app using the official Sitecore Marketplace SDK (v0.4).

Step 1: Gather Requirements

Ask the user the following questions (skip any they've already answered):

  1. App name — What should the app be called? (default: from $ARGUMENTS if provided)
  2. Architecture — Client-side only or full-stack?
    • Client-side: UI runs entirely in the iframe, communicates via SDK client. Simpler, no server needed.
    • Full-stack: Includes Next.js API routes/server actions for server-side SDK access. Required for Auth0, server-side mutations, or proxying external APIs.
  3. Authentication — Built-in (default) or Auth0?
    • Built-in: Zero-config, SDK handles auth automatically. Sufficient for most apps.
    • Auth0: Required for server-side API access, external service integration, or custom auth flows. Requires Auth0 tenant setup.
  4. Optional packages — Which additional SDK packages?
    • XM Cloud (xmc): Access Sites, Pages, Authoring, Content Transfer, Search, and Agent APIs
    • AI Skills (ai): Access Brand Review API for AI-powered content analysis

Step 2: Run the Scaffold Command

Based on answers, construct and run the appropriate command:

# Client-side only (built-in auth)
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-client.json

# Client-side + XMC
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-client.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/xmc.json

# Client-side + AI
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-client.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/ai.json

# Client-side + XMC + AI
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-client.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/xmc.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/ai.json

# Full-stack (Auth0) — adds server-side SDK support
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-auth0.json

# Full-stack + XMC
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-auth0.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/xmc.json

# Full-stack + AI
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-auth0.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/ai.json

# Full-stack + XMC + AI
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/app-auth0.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/xmc.json https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/ai.json

Important: If the user doesn't have a Next.js project yet, scaffold one first:

npx create-next-app@latest <app-name> --typescript --tailwind --eslint --app --src-dir
cd <app-name>

Step 3: Post-Scaffold Setup

After scaffolding completes:

  1. Create .env.local — See env-template.md for the template. Fill in based on architecture choice.

  2. Configure CSP headers — Add iframe embedding headers to next.config.ts:

const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
  async headers() {
    return [
      {
        source: "/(.*)",
        headers: [
          {
            key: "Content-Security-Policy",
            value: "frame-ancestors 'self' https://*.sitecorecloud.io",
          },
        ],
      },
    ];
  },
};
  1. Install Blok theme (if not already present):
npx shadcn@latest add https://marketplace-sdk.sitecorecloud.io/r/blok-theme.json
  1. Verify setup — Run the dev server and confirm no errors:
npm run dev

Step 4: Explain Next Steps

After successful scaffold, suggest:

  • Use /marketplace-add-extension to add extension point routes (custom fields, dashboard widgets, etc.)
  • Use /marketplace-sdk-reference to look up SDK APIs
  • Use /marketplace-build-component to build UI with the Blok design system
  • Use /marketplace-deploy when ready to deploy
