MCP in Practice for TYPO3
TYPO3 workspaces from chat: draft, review, publish, discard
Five prompts on our demo install: two headings drafted in a TYPO3 draft workspace, listed, compared for review, one published and one discarded, then the old live value put back. Plus what a workspace does not protect.
The prompt in this video
Draft a clearer heading in both languages, as a draft only, not live.

Questions about this video
What does this video show?
Two prompts in Claude on our demo install: two headings drafted in a TYPO3 draft workspace, then the English one published and the German one discarded. The Publish module and the Warranty page show the result.
Did the live page change?
Only at publish, and only in English. On our demo we put the old heading back afterwards. 35.8 seconds for the two prompts together.
What does a workspace not protect?
Files, file metadata, redirects, scheduler tasks and cache clears act live, even in a workspace.
