odata-data-sharing

odata-data-sharing is a skill for Claude Code from mendixlabs/mxcli. It costs 54 tokens per session (3,279 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for sharing data between Mendix applications through OData, a web API format for reading and changing data between systems. It covers published services, client connections, external entities, and view entities that keep the public API separate from internal data structures.

In plain words
What is it for?
Publishing or consuming Mendix OData services, sharing data between apps, creating read-only or read-write APIs, and connecting actions or external entities.
Why use it?
It helps apps communicate without exposing their internal data model directly. Separating the API contract makes it easier to change one app without breaking the other.

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

odata-data-sharing 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 yesterday.

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.

OData Data Sharing Between Mendix Apps

This skill covers how to use OData services to share data between Mendix applications, with emphasis on using view entities as an abstraction layer to decouple the API contract from the internal domain model.

Reference files

SKILL.md covers the architecture, the contract rules, and the conventions. The long build-outs are next door:

  • reference/walkthroughs.md — four complete builds, start to finish: a read-only API behind view entities, a non-persistable published entity, a read-write API with microflow handlers, publishing a microflow as an OData action, and the GraphQL variant.
  • reference/errors-and-auth.md — which HTTP status each capability can actually return, the authentication methods and what Basic auth costs, and the configuration microflow for custom headers.

When to Use This Skill

  • User asks to expose data from one Mendix app to another
  • User wants to set up inter-app communication via OData
  • User needs to create an API layer that abstracts internal entities
  • User asks about external entities, consumed/published OData services
  • User wants to decouple modules or apps for independent deployment
  • User asks about the view entity pattern for OData services
  • User asks about local metadata files or offline OData development

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.
