paylocity

paylocity is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from apideck-libraries/api-skills. It costs 73 tokens per session (1,613 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of acerta, Apache-2.0.

An integration for Paylocity, a human resources information system that stores employee and workforce data, through Apideck's shared HR API. It can work with employees, departments, payrolls, and time-off records.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read or synchronize employee, department, payroll, and time-off data in Paylocity.
Why use it?
It avoids writing separate connection and request-handling code for Paylocity. The same API methods can also support other HR systems by changing the service identifier.

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

paylocity 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Paylocity (via Apideck)

Access Paylocity 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 Paylocity plumbing.

Quick facts

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with Paylocity — for example, "sync employees in Paylocity" or "list time-off requests in Paylocity". This skill teaches the agent:

  1. Which Apideck unified API covers Paylocity (HRIS)
  2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (paylocity)
  3. Paylocity-specific auth and coverage caveats

For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:

For the raw OpenAPI spec:

Minimal example (TypeScript)

import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";

const apideck = new Apideck({
  apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
  appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
  consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});

// List employees in Paylocity
const { data } = await apideck.hris.employees.list({
  serviceId: "paylocity",
});

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.
