api-connector-builder

api-connector-builder is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from unrealandychan/clean-code-skill. It costs 36 tokens per session (605 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of api-connector-builder, MIT.

A workflow for adding an API connector, which is code that connects a project to an outside service. It follows the repository's existing patterns for configuration, authentication, errors, tests, registration, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding a provider such as Jira or Slack, or any new integration that must match the host project's existing connector design.
Why use it?
It avoids introducing a second integration style and reduces the chance that a connector works only at the network layer but is missing project wiring or tests.

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

api-connector-builder 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 1mo 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.

API Connector Builder

Use this when the job is to add a repo-native integration surface, not just a generic HTTP client.

The point is to match the host repository's pattern:

  • connector layout
  • config schema
  • auth model
  • error handling
  • test style
  • registration/discovery wiring

When to Use

  • "Build a Jira connector for this project"
  • "Add a Slack provider following the existing pattern"
  • "Create a new integration for this API"
  • "Build a plugin that matches the repo's connector style"

Guardrails

  • do not invent a new integration architecture when the repo already has one
  • do not start from vendor docs alone; start from existing in-repo connectors first
  • do not stop at transport code if the repo expects registry wiring, tests, and docs
  • do not cargo-cult old connectors if the repo has a newer current pattern

Workflow

1. Learn the house style

Inspect at least 2 existing connectors/providers and map:

  • file layout
  • abstraction boundaries
  • config model
  • retry / pagination conventions
  • registry hooks
  • test fixtures and naming

2. Narrow the target integration

Define only the surface the repo actually needs:

  • auth flow
  • key entities
  • core read/write operations
  • pagination and rate limits
  • webhook or polling model

3. Build in repo-native layers

Typical slices:

  • config/schema
  • client/transport
  • mapping layer
  • connector/provider entrypoint
  • registration
  • tests

4. Validate against the source pattern

The new connector should look obvious in the codebase, not imported from a different ecosystem.

Quality Checklist

  • matches an existing in-repo integration pattern
  • config validation exists
  • auth and error handling are explicit
  • pagination/retry behavior follows repo norms
  • registry/discovery wiring is complete
  • tests mirror the host repo's style
  • docs/examples are updated if expected by the repo
