airtable-integration

Project rules for using Airtable, an online table-based database, as the backend for managing and displaying job listings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to connect a job board to Airtable, configure its environment variables, and fetch published listings with their related fields.
Why use it?
They define how job data, credentials, publication status, filtering, and sorting should work between the site and Airtable.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 0 Nothing until a file matches its globs; then the whole rule loads.
When invoked 935 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

airtable-integration scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Airtable Integration

Bordful uses Airtable as its backend database, providing a no-code solution for managing job listings with a user-friendly interface.

Database Structure

Jobs Table

The main table storing all job listings with these key fields:

  • Title - Job title/position name
  • Company - Company name
  • Description - Rich text job description
  • Status - Publication status (Published, Draft, Archived)
  • Location - Job location (Remote, City, Country)
  • Type - Employment type (Full-time, Part-time, Contract, Freelance)
  • Level - Experience level (Junior, Mid-level, Senior, Lead)
  • Language - Programming languages/technologies
  • Salary Min/Max - Salary range
  • Currency - Salary currency
  • Apply URL - External application link
  • Company Logo - Company logo image
  • Posted Date - Publication date
  • Slug - URL-friendly identifier

Data Access Patterns

Environment Variables

Required Airtable credentials in .env:

AIRTABLE_ACCESS_TOKEN=pat_your_token_here
AIRTABLE_BASE_ID=app_your_base_id_here
AIRTABLE_TABLE_NAME=Jobs

Data Fetching

Jobs are fetched using the Airtable API with:

  • Filtering by status (only published jobs)
  • Sorting by posted date (newest first)
  • Field selection for performance
  • Pagination for large datasets

Database Operations

Read Operations

  • getJobs() - Fetch all published jobs
  • getJob(id) - Fetch single job by ID
  • testConnection() - Test Airtable connection
  • Additional filtering and transformation happens in the application layer

Data Transformation

Raw Airtable data is transformed to:

  • Normalize field names and types
  • Generate slugs for URLs
  • Format dates and currencies
  • Process rich text descriptions
  • Optimize images and attachments

Content Management

Admin Interface

Airtable provides the admin interface for:

  • Adding new job listings
  • Editing existing jobs
  • Managing job status (publish/draft/archive)
  • Bulk operations and data import
  • User permissions and collaboration

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
