What is workato-connector-sdk?

A set of coding rules for building Workato connectors in Ruby. Workato connectors connect Workato, an automation platform, to other services through actions and triggers.

Use it to organize connector files, define authentication, implement actions and triggers, and structure tests and related connector definitions.

It gives the expected project structure and required parts of a connector, reducing uncertainty when implementing or reviewing one. It also identifies supported authentication styles such as API keys and OAuth 2.0.

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.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00000	$0.00792
Opus 5	$0.00000	$0.00396
Sonnet 5	$0.00000	$0.00158
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00079

Security

Grade A, and why

workato-connector-sdk 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 5d 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.

Authorization types

connection.authorization.type:

basic_auth — Basic auth
api_key — API key
oauth2 — OAuth 2.0
custom_auth — custom auth
multi — multiple auth options

Required keys for an action

execute — execution logic (HTTP requests, etc.)
input_fields — input field definitions
output_fields — output field definitions

Required keys for a polling trigger

poll — data fetch. Returns { events:, can_poll_more:, next_poll: }.
dedup — deduplication key
input_fields / output_fields

Required keys for a webhook trigger

webhook_subscribe / webhook_unsubscribe — dynamic webhooks
webhook_notification — webhook payload handler
output_fields

Field definitions

{ name: 'field', type: 'string', control_type: 'text', label: 'Display name', optional: true, hint: 'help text' }

Types: string, integer, number, boolean, date, timestamp, object, array.

HTTP methods

get, post, put, patch, delete — base_uri is automatically prefixed.

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.
