Configure rules

Rules form the essential backbone of the Capable Quality tool, providing a flexible framework that allows you to customize settings in a way that aligns perfectly with your specific brand guidelines. For example, you can define disallowed macros that should not be used, or set criteria to identify stale pages that require updating or removal.

These rules help maintain consistency and quality across your content. You can easily configure and manage these rules on the dedicated 'Rules' page, which is located within the Quality section of the tool's interface.
