alibabacloud-sdk-usage

alibabacloud-sdk-usage is a skill for Claude Code from aliyun/alibabacloud-agent-toolkit. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,401 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for writing code that calls Alibaba Cloud OpenAPI services. OpenAPI is Alibaba Cloud’s programmatic interface for controlling cloud products, and the guide supports typed SDK calls and general API requests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Generating or modifying Alibaba Cloud SDK code, finding API definitions and parameters, selecting dependencies, and making calls to a small number of cloud APIs.
Why use it?
It reduces errors from guessing product names, SDK packages, endpoints, parameters, or request formats. It first uses the shared API reference tools and checks whether an existing operational guide is a better fit.

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

alibabacloud-sdk-usage 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 117 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Alibaba Cloud SDK Usage

Use the local alibabacloud-core MCP server tools before writing Alibaba Cloud interaction code. Do not start another MCP server or call aliyun directly from the shell.

Use the MCP Core tools (AlibabaCloud___SearchApis, AlibabaCloud___ListApis, AlibabaCloud___GetApiDefinition, AlibabaCloud___GenerateCLICommand, AlibabaCloud___CallCLI) to resolve metadata. Do not guess product codes, SDK packages, request models, endpoints, or parameter casing.

Scope Check Before You Start

This skill generates SDK code that calls a small number of APIs. If the user's request is instead an operational pattern that likely has a packaged solution — batch operations, audits, rotations, scheduled cleanup, multi-step runbooks — invoke alibabacloud-find-skills first to search the official catalog. Falling back to SDK synthesis is appropriate only after find-skills returns no match. Full trigger conditions are in mcp-core-best-practices → Skill Discovery.

Workflow

  1. Inspect the local project first.

    • Detect the target language from project files (pyproject.toml, requirements*.txt, package.json, go.mod, pom.xml, build.gradle, .csproj, composer.json, Package.swift, etc.).
    • Check whether Alibaba Cloud SDK dependencies are already installed or declared.
    • Check existing Alibaba Cloud call style. If the project uses generic call_api / common OpenAPI calls, continue with callType=generic. If it uses product-specific clients and request models, continue with callType=typed.
    • Match local naming, formatting, async style, error handling, and dependency manager. Do not paste standalone samples into application code unchanged.
  2. Resolve metadata with OpenAPI Explorer through local MCP.

    • list-products: resolve the exact product code and default API version when the user did not provide them.
    • get-product-endpoints: choose the endpoint for the target region. Use VPC endpoints only when the code will run inside the same Alibaba Cloud VPC; otherwise use the public endpoint.
    • get-api-definition: read required parameters, pagination fields, response shape, error codes, and RAM actions.
    • get-sdk-dependencies: get the exact dependency and version for the selected language and callType.
    • get-code-sample: get the official sample for the same product, API version, language, region, params, and callType.
