agent-kernel: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/ak-dev-new-messaging-integration/SKILL.md

ak-dev-new-messaging-integration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yaalalabs/agent-kernel. It costs 80 tokens per session (4,305 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A step-by-step development guide for adding support for a new chat or messaging platform to Agent Kernel, an agent software framework. It covers the platform's incoming messages, webhooks, settings, and replies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build a new messaging integration, including its webhook routes, message and attachment handling, configuration, agent calls, and response formatting.
Why use it?
It explains where a new platform connects to the framework, reducing the chance of bypassing the framework's intended message-processing path.

This is yaalalabs/agent-kernel's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on agent-kernel itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything agent-kernel configures →

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

ak-dev-new-messaging-integration 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 today.

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.

Adding a New Messaging Integration

This guide walks through adding a new messaging platform integration to Agent Kernel. Use the WhatsApp adapter (ak-py/src/agentkernel/integration/whatsapp/adapter.py) as the canonical webhook reference, and Gmail (integration/gmail/adapter.py) as the polling one.

Architecture Overview

A platform integration is two pure translation functions with a queue between them (spec #524):

  1. An InboundAdapter turns one platform delivery into normalized InboundRequest envelopes: it verifies the delivery, extracts the text, downloads and stores attachments, and resolves session_id and request_id at the edge. It never runs the agent.
  2. The pipeline carries the request: IntegrationProducer enqueues it, AgentRunner executes it platform-agnostically, and the reply travels back on the output queue with the integration attribute and the reply_-prefixed reply context.
  3. An OutboundAdapter turns the agent's reply back into platform API calls, using nothing but the flat reply_context the inbound half resolved.

This is why the webhook answers in milliseconds: a slow agent run can no longer hold the turn open past the platform's delivery timeout and cause a redelivery.

Hosting depends on how the platform delivers events:

Source Host Entry point
Source.WEBHOOK (pushed) WebhookRESTRequestHandler IOHandler.run(handlers=[WebhookRESTRequestHandler(MyInboundAdapter())])
Source.WEBHOOK on AWS Lambda WebhookRESTRequestHandler via LambdaWebhookHost host = LambdaWebhookHost(WebhookRESTRequestHandler(MyInboundAdapter())) at module scope in the request-handler Lambda, with Lambda.register(<webhook_path>, method="POST")(host.handle) (and GET → host.challenge when the adapter declares a challenge_path) (rest_sync/rest_async, sqs), with the route in gateway_endpoints and APIGatewayAuthorizer(bypass=WebhookRouteMatcher(...)) behind an authorizer
Source.POLLER (pulled) PollerRunner IOHandler.run(pollers=[PollerRunner(MyInboundAdapter())]) on in_memory, PollerRunner.run(adapter) as its own container on a broker

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.
