javascript-actions

javascript-actions is a skill for Claude Code from mendixlabs/mxcli. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,710 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for creating and using Mendix JavaScript actions, which are custom functions that run in a browser or on a device. They are called from nanoflows, Mendix's client-side workflows, rather than microflows, which run on the server.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add browser APIs, network requests, geolocation, DOM behavior, or existing marketplace capabilities to a Mendix app through JavaScript actions.
Why use it?
It clarifies where client-side code belongs and keeps browser or device behavior separate from server-side Java actions.

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

javascript-actions 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.

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.

Mendix JavaScript Actions Skill

Guidance for creating, calling, and dropping JavaScript actions in Mendix projects with MDL. JavaScript actions hold custom client-side logic and are called from nanoflows (not microflows — those use Java actions).

When to Use This Skill

  • Adding client-side behaviour (browser/native APIs, DOM, fetch, geolocation, …)
  • Logic that must run on the device rather than the server
  • Calling an existing JavaScript action from a nanoflow
  • Wrapping a marketplace/native capability exposed as a JS action

For server-side custom code, use Java actions instead (see java-actions).

Overview

A JavaScript action is two things on disk:

  1. The model unit (JavaScriptActions$JavaScriptAction).
  2. A source file javascriptsource/<Module>/actions/<Name>.js containing an exported async function.

CREATE JAVASCRIPT ACTION writes both. The MDL body you provide becomes the function body (between the BEGIN USER CODE / END USER CODE markers), so it normally returns a Promise.

Syntax

CREATE [OR MODIFY] JAVASCRIPT ACTION Module.Name ( parameters )
    RETURNS type
    [EXPOSED AS 'caption' IN 'category']
    [PLATFORM Web | Native | Hybrid | All]   -- default Web
AS $$
    <javascript>
$$;

DROP JAVASCRIPT ACTION Module.Name;

Clause order is fixed: returns, then exposed as, then platform, then as.
