shortcut

shortcut is a skill for Claude Code from apideck-libraries/api-skills. It costs 56 tokens per session (1,032 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A proxy integration for calling Shortcut, a project-management tool, through Apideck while keeping Shortcut's own API request and response formats.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to send requests to or fetch data from Shortcut's native API.
Why use it?
It stores credentials and handles token refreshes, so each customer connection needs less authentication code. It does not convert Shortcut data into a shared resource model.

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

shortcut 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shortcut (via Apideck Proxy)

Access Shortcut through Apideck's Proxy API with managed Vault auth. Apideck stores credentials, refreshes tokens, and forwards your HTTP calls to Shortcut's native API — you keep using Shortcut's own request and response shapes, while Apideck eliminates per-tenant credential plumbing and gives you a single auth integration shared across every Apideck connector.

Auth-only / proxy-only connector. Apideck does not map Shortcut to a unified-API resource model — your code talks Shortcut's own API directly through the Proxy. You still get Vault credential storage, token refresh, retries, and a consistent request envelope.

Quick facts

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user wants to call Shortcut via Apideck — for example, "call the Shortcut API" or "fetch data from Shortcut". This skill teaches the agent:

  1. That Shortcut routes through Apideck's Proxy API, not a unified resource API
  2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (shortcut)
  3. How to keep using Shortcut's native request/response shapes while Apideck handles Vault auth

If you need a unified-API surface (one method shape across many vendors), see the connector skills in this catalog whose serviceId is mapped to a unified API.

Auth

  • Type: API Key
  • Managed by: Apideck Vault — the user pastes their Shortcut API key into the Vault modal; Apideck stores it encrypted and injects it on every request.
  • Rotation: if the user rotates their key, they re-enter it in Vault. No code changes needed.
