etsy-api

etsy-api is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from J-DTurner/etsy-api-skill. It costs 48 tokens per session (859 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for connecting software to Etsy's Open API, the service Etsy provides for managing shop data programmatically. It covers authentication, which verifies the shop account, and requests to Etsy's services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating or updating listings, uploading listing media, managing inventory, reading orders, changing shop settings, using Etsy categories and properties, and configuring webhooks that notify software about events.
Why use it?
It gives the agent the rules needed to work with Etsy shop data and handle Etsy's authentication and request limits correctly.

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

etsy-api 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (examples/list_active_listings.py, scripts/etsy_cli.py, scripts/etsy_http.py, …), 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.

Etsy Open API v3 Skill

Use this skill when you need to read or modify Etsy shop resources using Etsy Open API v3, including:

  • Listings: create drafts, update listing metadata, upload images/files, manage videos, update inventory/offerings
  • Shop: retrieve/update shop settings, shop sections, shipping profiles, processing profiles, return policies
  • Receipts/orders: retrieve receipts and transactions, post-purchase workflows
  • Taxonomy: seller/buyer taxonomy nodes and properties
  • Webhooks: create/rotate endpoints, subscribe to events, verify signatures

This skill package includes reference docs and scripts to make correct, rate-limit-aware requests.

Authentication model (critical)

Etsy uses:

  • API key header on all requests
  • OAuth 2.0 user tokens (Authorization Code + PKCE) for scoped/private endpoints

Required headers

All requests must include:

  • x-api-key: <ETSY_KEYSTRING>:<ETSY_SHARED_SECRET>

Scoped endpoints additionally require:

  • Authorization: Bearer <ETSY_OAUTH_USER_ID>.<ETSY_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN>

Note: Etsy’s Bearer token format includes the numeric user id, a dot (.), and then the access token.

See:

  • references/02_authentication.md
  • references/03_request_standards.md

Rate limits (must follow)

Etsy enforces per-application rate limits:

  • QPS (queries per second)
  • QPD (queries per day) using a rolling 24-hour sliding window

When you receive HTTP 429, honor the retry-after header and use exponential backoff.

See:

  • references/04_rate_limits.md

Scripts you can run (code_execution)

All scripts are under skills/etsy-api/scripts/.

1) Make requests safely

Use the CLI to perform an arbitrary request with proper headers:

python skills/etsy-api/scripts/etsy_cli.py request GET /v3/application/listings?state=active

You can pass a body for POST/PUT with --data (JSON) or --form (x-www-form-urlencoded).

2) OAuth helpers (PKCE + token exchange)

Generate a PKCE verifier/challenge and an authorization URL:

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.
