SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Adding built-in help to 1C:Enterprise objects (data processors, reports, catalogs, documents) normally requires manually creating Help.xml metadata, HTML pages, and updating form metadata. This Skill automates that scaffolding through the Unica MCP orchestrator. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Help scaffolding: Creates Ext/Help.xml and a language-specific HTML page (default ru) for any configuration object. - Form metadata update: Adds IncludeHelpInContents to form metadata when the object has forms, so the help button appears automatically via AutoCommandBar. - Safe mutation control: Runs in dry-run mode by default and respects vendor support locks on read-only objects. - Use Case: A developer wants built-in help for the catalog МойСправочник; invoking the skill generates the help template files and wires the form metadata in one step. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to add built-in help to the object Catalogs/МойСправочник in the src source directory using the help-add skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add built-in help to a 1C configuration object?▼

Invoke the skill with the object path relative to the source directory, for example Catalogs/МойСправочник. It calls the Unica MCP tool unica.help.add, which creates Ext/Help.xml and an HTML help page, then updates form metadata if forms exist.

What files does 1C built-in help require?▼

A 1C object needs an Ext/Help.xml metadata file and a language-coded HTML page such as Ext/Help/ru.html. The help content is standard HTML using headings, paragraphs, lists, and tables, and it is not registered in ChildObjects.

Can I add help in a language other than Russian?▼

Yes, pass the Lang parameter with the desired language code; it defaults to ru. The generated HTML file is named after that language code inside the Ext/Help directory.

Why is the help button not appearing on my 1C form?▼

The form metadata must include the IncludeHelpInContents flag for the help button to appear via AutoCommandBar autofill. The skill adds this flag automatically when the object has forms, but objects without forms will not show a help button.

What happens if the object is locked by vendor support?▼

The Unica vendor support guard blocks mutations on locked or read-only supported objects. In that case, use a CFE extension or an explicit support-state change plan instead of editing raw support metadata.
