Deck Manager

The Deck Manager provides tools to create, rename, and delete decks directly from the admin site.

Accessing the Deck Manager​

Navigate to the Deck Manager page from the admin sidebar, or click the "Deck Manager" card on the Dashboard.

Creating a Deck​

Click the + New Deck button to open the create form.

  1. Deck Name — Enter the full deck name (e.g. "Atraxa Superfriends"). A slug is automatically generated from the name and shown as a preview below the input.
  2. Format — Select the deck format (Commander, Standard, Modern, etc.). Defaults to Commander.
  3. Click Create Deck to write the file to the decks directory.

The slug is derived from the deck name using the same rules as the CLI new-deck command: lowercased, with non-alphanumeric characters replaced by hyphens.

Renaming a Deck​

Click the Rename button next to any deck in the list.

  1. The current deck name is pre-filled in the input.
  2. Edit the name. A preview of the new slug appears below the input.
  3. Click Rename to save.

Renaming a deck:

  • Updates the name field in the deck's YAML frontmatter
  • Renames the file to match the new slug (e.g. old-name.md → new-name.md)
  • Also renames the changelog file (*.changes.md) and primer file (*.primer.md) if they exist

Deleting a Deck​

Click the Delete button next to any deck in the list.

danger

Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone unless you have git history or a backup.

A confirmation form is shown. You must type the exact deck name (as shown) before the Delete button becomes active. This prevents accidental deletion.

Deleting a deck removes:

  • The deck file (<slug>.md)
  • The changelog file (<slug>.changes.md) if it exists
  • The primer file (<slug>.primer.md) if it exists

Git Integration​

When git integration is enabled and Auto-commit changes is turned on in Settings, each operation creates a commit:

  • Create: Create deck: <Deck Name>
  • Rename: Rename deck: <Old Name> → <New Name>
  • Delete: Delete deck: <Deck Name>

If Auto-push after commit is also enabled, changes are automatically pushed to the remote after each commit.
