Manage Restaurant Content

Keep your Dineway site fresh with routine updates — seasonal menus, new photos, blog posts, holiday hours, and review-safe copy your agent handles as drafts.

Use this when

You need to make a routine update: a new seasonal menu, a holiday closure notice, fresh gallery photos, a blog post about a private dining event, or a correction to your hours. These are the updates that keep a restaurant site alive and trustworthy.

Copy this prompt

Act as my Dineway content operator. Look at the relevant collection and current content first. Create or update draft content for this restaurant update, keep all verified facts intact, and show me exactly what needs my approval before publishing.

Common tasks your agent can help with

Here are the kinds of updates restaurant operators ask for most often:

  • Add a seasonal special — “Draft a new post about our winter tasting menu. Use the attached menu PDF for dishes and prices.”
  • Update gallery images — “Upload these five new photos from last week’s event. Write alt text that describes each image honestly.”
  • Turn review themes into website copy — “Our Google reviews mention the patio and the pasta. Draft a short section for the homepage that reflects this — without quoting anyone directly.”
  • Write a blog post — “Draft a blog post about our upcoming wine dinner on March 15th. Here are the details.”
  • Announce holiday hours — “Update the hours page for Christmas week. We are closed December 25th and open reduced hours December 24th and 26th.”
  • Find stale content — “List any content that has not been updated in 90 days and suggest what to refresh, remove, or archive.”

What the agent should inspect first

  • The collection schema for whatever you are updating.
  • Existing draft and published items — so it does not create duplicates.
  • Source material you have provided (menus, photos, event details).
  • The media library — are there already images it should use?
  • SEO title and description fields.
  • Site context and brand voice — has any been recorded?

What Dineway tools it may use

npx dineway content list posts --status draft
npx dineway content list pages --status published
npx dineway media list --mime image/jpeg

With MCP connected, the agent can also find content, update drafts, search the site, and record durable site context without editing project files directly.

How you review the result

Before you publish anything, check:

  • Food names and prices — are they accurate right now?
  • Hours and event dates — do they match reality?
  • Legal or allergy-sensitive claims — “gluten-free,” “nut-free,” dietary labels. Do not publish these unless you are certain.
  • Image accuracy — is the photo actually from your restaurant?
  • Tone and brand fit — does it sound like you?
  • Content type — should this be a blog post, a news item, a page, a menu update, or a gallery entry?

Do not let the agent invent

This matters especially for restaurant content:

  • Do not let it turn review sentiment into fake customer quotes.
  • Do not let it invent allergen claims or dietary labels.
  • Do not let it promise availability (“always in stock,” “open every day”).
  • Do not let it add discounts or promotions you have not approved.
  • Do not let it publish anything without your explicit say-so.
