integration-development

integration-development is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from membranehq/agent-skills. It costs 113 tokens per session (15,331 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A development guide for connecting software to external apps such as SaaS services, internal tools, scripts, and command-line programs. It describes how authentication, connections, and actions fit together through Membrane.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building software that reads from, writes to, synchronizes with, or responds to data in another app, for one account or many users.
Why use it?
It explains the repeated setup needed to authenticate users and code, refresh credentials, reconnect services, and choose actions without handling each vendor's process separately.

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 C, and why

integration-development scanned grade C with 2 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.

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.

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Integration Development

How integrations work — the five-step mental model

Every Membrane-backed feature walks through the same linear spine. Steps 0–3 are the core path; step 4 is a capability upgrade you graduate into when your app isn't bound to one specific vendor.

Step 0: Authenticate yourself   — you, the developer; via MCP or `membrane` CLI
Step 1: Authenticate your code  — sign JWTs in your backend
                                  ↳ single-tenant vs multi-tenant decided HERE
Step 2: Create connections      — `membrane.ui.connect()` in your app UI
Step 3: Use connections         — call actions on the external app
                                  ↳ discover via intent search when you don't know what to call
                                  ↳ dispatch: inline api/code | catalog id | workspace key
Step 4 (advanced): Universal    — app-agnostic code via universal actions + cross-connection logic

In an MCP session step 0 is already done — membrane status confirms.

The most consequential choice — whether your app serves one shared external account (single-tenant: a team CRM, an internal Slack) or many end users (multi-tenant: each user connects their own Gmail, Linear, etc.) — lives in step 1. It determines what your backend puts in the JWT it signs, which in turn scopes every connection and action that follows. Everything downstream of step 1 is uniform: the same membrane.ui.connect() call, the same /act dispatch.

Before you code — typical discovery flow

Four commands cover most starting points:

# 1. Populate env with real credentials.
membrane credentials --shell > .env.local

# 2. Find the app you're integrating with (returns externalAppId).
membrane external-app list --search <app-name>

# 3. List catalog actions for that app.
membrane action list --externalAppId <id>

# 4. Check existing connections in the current tenant.
membrane connection list

CLI quick reference.

  • Mint a JWT: membrane token (add --tenantKey <key> for per-user, --manager for POST /actions and other manager ops).
  • membrane --help or membrane <command> --help lists the full surface.

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.

integration-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository membranehq/agent-skills (5 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 113 tokens to every session and 15,331 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (hidden instructions, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
