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.

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 5.1 | $0.00079 | $0.02388 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00032 | $0.00955 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00478 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00239 |
Grade A, and why
adp-workforce-now scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 161 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ADP Workforce Now (via Apideck)
Access ADP Workforce Now through Apideck's HRIS unified API — one of 58 HRIS connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to BambooHR, Workday, Deel and 54 other HRIS connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant ADP Workforce Now plumbing.
Beta connector. ADP Workforce Now is currently in beta on Apideck. Expect partial resource coverage and occasional mapping gaps. Always verify coverage (see below) and fall back to the Proxy API for unsupported operations.
Quick facts
- Apideck serviceId:
adp-workforce-now - Unified API: HRIS
- Auth type: oauth2
- Status: beta
- Apideck setup guide: Connection guide

- Homepage: https://www.adp.com/what-we-offer/products/adp-workforce-now.aspx
At a glance
- Implementation difficulty: highly complex — Custom Auth + Multi-Step Per-Consumer Setup
- Vendor partnership required: no — The ADP Marketplace Partner Program is a separate route that adds a sandbox and partner API access under a partner agreement; API Central needs no partnership.
- Apideck-managed credentials: not available — Each consumer provisions their own ADP credentials and certificate.
- Account type required: ADP Workforce Now or Workforce Now Next Generation, ADP's US and Canada product, with ADP API Central purchased.
- Consumer access level: An ADP administrator who can purchase the add-on, create a project, set Workforce Now permissions and generate a certificate.
- Sandbox: not available — A test instance exists only inside ADP's Marketplace Partner enrollment, which this connection model does not use.
- Costs: Paid by the consumer: ADP bills API Central monthly by employee count on their own ADP invoice; prices are shown after signing in. No free trial.
- Rate limits: 120 requests/minute per API Central project and a maximum of 10 concurrent requests; ADP returns HTTP 429 beyond either limit.
- Authentication: Client credentials over mutual TLS, not a user-consent flow. ADP requires an X.509 client certificate on every call, plus Client ID and Secret.
- Webhooks: Virtual webhooks (Apideck polls for employee created, updated and terminated events)
What ships with it

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.

adp-workforce-now is a skill published in the GitHub repository apideck-libraries/api-skills (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 79 tokens to every session and 2,388 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
