A Dropbox connection for browsing, searching, reading, uploading, and sharing files and folders, including shared team folders.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding documents, reading or downloading files, uploading new files, and sharing or moving items in Dropbox.
Why use it?
It removes the need to switch to Dropbox or handle file transfers manually. Access uses the user's own account.

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

dropbox scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 167 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Dropbox

Use this skill when the user asks about their Dropbox files or folders — listing, searching, reading/downloading, uploading, or sharing.

This is an OAuth connector. The resolved user's Dropbox token already lives on your computer as an environment variable, one per Dropbox API host (the way a logged-in CLI's cached credential would):

  • $VAULT_TOKEN_API_DROPBOXAPI_COM — for api.dropboxapi.com (RPC: list, search, share, move, delete)
  • $VAULT_TOKEN_CONTENT_DROPBOXAPI_COM — for content.dropboxapi.com (download, upload)

Both carry the same Dropbox token (one OAuth grant spans every host), so if a host-specific var is empty, $VAULT_TOKEN_API_DROPBOXAPI_COM works as the bearer for any Dropbox host. Pass it as -H "Authorization: Bearer $VAULT_TOKEN_...". Never ask the user for a token, log it, or use another principal's credential or a service fallback.

If $VAULT_TOKEN_API_DROPBOXAPI_COM is empty: per-user connector tokens are injected only in a direct DM with the user (their personal scope) — in a channel or group they're absent by design, even for a fully-connected user. So don't tell a channel user to reconnect; ask them to DM you to run this. Only if it's empty inside a DM does it mean they haven't connected Dropbox — then point them to the Connectors page.

On 401: the token is expired/invalid → have them reconnect — unless the error body's .tag is missing_scope, in which case the app lacks a permission; name the required_scope it returns (the connected app grants account_info.read, files.metadata.read, files.content.read/write, sharing.read/write).

First: pick the right namespace (team vs personal)

This is the step that makes team and shared folders visible. By default the Dropbox API only lists the user's personal (home) namespace — for a Business member that root is often nearly empty. The team folders they see in the Dropbox web UI live in the team namespace, and the API only shows them when you set the Dropbox-API-Path-Root header.

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.

dropbox is a skill published in the GitHub repository yc-software/qm (14,428 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,924 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
