okta

okta is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ashish7802/awesome-api-skills. It costs 0 tokens per session (486 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to the Okta API, a service for managing employee and customer identities, groups, and application access. It covers the Node.js library, user profiles, authentication, pagination, and API limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find and update users, manage groups and application integrations, inspect field-level errors, paginate through user lists, and store or rotate Okta tokens securely.
Why use it?
It helps you automate identity-management tasks without mishandling long-lived access tokens or overlooking validation errors. It also explains how to work safely within Okta's endpoint and concurrency limits.

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

okta 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (examples/example.py, examples/example.ts, tests/skill.test.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Okta API Skill

Overview

The Okta API manages workforce and customer identities. This skill covers the @okta/okta-sdk-nodejs library for backend lifecycle management.

Installation

npm install @okta/okta-sdk-nodejs
pip install okta

Authentication

Use an SSWS (Secure Socket Web Server) API Token provided in the Authorization: SSWS <token> header.

Core Concepts

  • User: An identity in the Universal Directory.
  • Group: Logical collection of users.
  • Application: An integration (SAML/OIDC) users can access.

Common Workflows

  1. Instantiate Client.
  2. Fetch a user via client.getUser(id).
  3. Modify profile attributes and call user.update().

Error Handling

Handle OktaApiError. Pay attention to the errorCauses array for specific field validation failures during user creation.

Security

SSWS Tokens are long-lived and bypass MFA. Store them in secure vaults (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager) and rotate them regularly.

Rate Limits

Limits are concurrent and per-endpoint. Core endpoints (like /api/v1/users) have high limits, while search endpoints have strict limits.

Best Practices

Use pagination for querying users (collection.each()) to avoid loading millions of records into memory.

Troubleshooting

If a user is locked out, ensure you are calling the /api/v1/users/{id}/lifecycle/unlock endpoint correctly.

References

Why use this skill

Use this when your agent works with okta — structured patterns beat pasted docs and prevent common hallucinations.

AI pitfalls

  • Using outdated SDK or API versions from training data
  • Inventing environment variable names
  • Omitting error handling and retry logic

Production checklist

  • Secrets in environment variables, not source code
  • Error handling and logging in place
  • Rate limits and timeouts configured

Changes

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.

okta is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashish7802/awesome-api-skills (13 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 486 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
