Integration Overview

For toa://scribe to work with your repo, two things are required:

  1. A scribe.yaml config file in your repo
  2. Templates that read the fields scribe writes to front matter

The bootstrap wizard handles scribe.yaml automatically. The template changes are small and documented in the Hugo and Astro guides.

When you publish a post, scribe writes a standard Markdown file with YAML front matter:

---
title: "My post title"
date: 2026-05-21T14:32:00+02:00
author: tor
categories:
- review
tags:
- hugo
- cms
feature_image: /images/posts/2026-05-21-my-post-abc123.webp
draft: false

Post body starts here...

Your templates must read these fields — especially feature_image and categories.
