What it does
Openai API is an agent skill from coco-research/coco. Use when implementing GPT chat, streaming, function calling, embeddings for RAG, images, audio or batch jobs, or troubleshooting 429 rate limits and API or TypeScript errors. Stateless OpenAI patterns that prevent 16 documented errors.
Its SKILL.md is about 7.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 31 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `NEXT-SESSION.md`, `references/audio-guide.md` and `references/cost-optimization.md`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering LLM API integration, Structured output and tool calling and Embeddings. It works with OpenAI, TypeScript and Node.js. The repository describes itself as: CoCo Super Intelligence is the orchestration layer that turns Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex into an engineering department: a routed advisory board, 226 skills, 386 commands…

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d79d33a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (TypeScript and Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
api.openai.com
Also links to:
platform.openai.comgithub.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
OPENAI_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Openai API loads about 7.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~19k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,603 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:68
Or create `.env` file:
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,603 words (~7,610 tokens).

When should I use Openai API?
Openai API fits situations like: implementing GPT chat; function calling; embeddings for RAG; troubleshooting 429 rate limits and API.
How do I install Openai API in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add coco-research/coco --skill openai-api -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/openai-api in coco-research/coco) into .claude/skills/openai-api in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Openai API in Codex?

Can I use Openai API in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add coco-research/coco --skill openai-api -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/openai-api, .gemini/skills/openai-api, .github/skills/openai-api and .opencode/skills/openai-api in your project.
What does Openai API need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Openai API needs TypeScript and a shell for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (npm) and credentials named OPENAI_API_KEY. Our summary lists: Node.js; A Bash shell; A credential in OPENAI_API_KEY.
Does Openai API access the network?
SKILL.md names 3 domains. In commands or code: api.openai.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. As links in the text: platform.openai.com and github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Openai API safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Openai API use?
Openai API has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.
How many tokens does Openai API use?
About 7.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 30k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 11k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
What are the alternatives to Openai API?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Openai API: Openai API (ynulihao/AgentSkillOS, 617 stars), Sap Cloud SDK AI (secondsky/sap-skills, 462 stars), Azure Openai To Responses (microsoft/ai-agents-for-beginners, 77k stars) and Anthropic Product Knowledge (syahiidkamil/Software-Engineer-AI-Agent-Atlas, 401 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
