What it does

Appfolio Core Workflow A is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Build property management dashboard with AppFolio API data. Trigger: "appfolio property dashboard".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Real estate. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Real estate

Example prompts

  • “appfolio property dashboard”
  • “/appfolio-core-workflow-a”

Requirements

  • A credential in APPFOLIO_CLIENT_SECRET
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash(npm:*), Bash(curl:*), Grep

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Authenticate and Initialize Client
  2. Create or Update a Property
  3. Add a Tenant and Lease
  4. Query Occupancy

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Bash(npm:*)
    • Bash(curl:*)
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).

    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.appfolio.com

    Also links to:

    • appfolio.com
    • engineering.appfolio.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • APPFOLIO_CLIENT_SECRET

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Appfolio Core Workflow A loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 428 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~31
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

AppFolio — Property & Tenant Management

Overview

Primary workflow for AppFolio property management integration. Covers the full property lifecycle: creating and updating property records, managing tenant profiles and lease agreements, and querying occupancy data. Uses the AppFolio Stack API with OAuth 2.0 client credentials for server-to-server access. All endpoints return JSON and support pagination via cursor parameters for large portfolios.

Prerequisites

  • A current AppFolio partner/API contract that confirms the assigned portfolio base URL, authentication method, approved scopes, and write capabilities; do not infer these from a tutorial or another portfolio.
  • A separate sandbox with disposable properties, units, and synthetic tenant records, plus a credential owner and an approved request budget.
  • Idempotency keys and an operator-approved rollback/reconciliation process for property, tenant, and lease writes, which can create real legal and billing consequences.

Instructions

  1. Confirm the provider-issued base URL and authentication flow for the target portfolio before copying any client configuration into an environment.
  2. Exercise the create/update path only with sandbox synthetic fixtures and idempotency keys; retrieve canonical records before retrying an uncertain write.
  3. Validate ownership, lease dates, and unit availability before creating a lease, and emit only record IDs and redacted status evidence.
  4. Promote a write-capable flow only after a staged rehearsal proves rollback, reconciliation, and the least-privilege scope boundary.
Step 1: Authenticate and Initialize Client
typescript
const token = await fetch('https://api.appfolio.com/oauth/token', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
  body: new URLSearchParams({
    grant_type: 'client_credentials',
    client_id: process.env.APPFOLIO_CLIENT_ID!,
    client_secret: process.env.APPFOLIO_CLIENT_SECRET!,
    scope: 'properties tenants leases',
  }),
}).then(r => r.json());
const headers = { Authorization: `Bearer ${token.access_token}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' };
Step 2: Create or Update a Property
typescript
const property = await fetch('https://api.appfolio.com/v1/properties', {
  method: 'POST', headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: 'Sunrise Apartments',
    address: { street: '100 Main St', city: 'Austin', state: 'TX', zip: '78701' },
    type: 'residential',
    units: [
      { number: '101', bedrooms: 2, bathrooms: 1, rent: 1450 },
      { number: '102', bedrooms: 1, bathrooms: 1, rent: 1100 },
    ],
  }),
}).then(r => r.json());
console.log(`Property created: ${property.id}`);
Step 3: Add a Tenant and Lease
typescript
const tenant = await fetch('https://api.appfolio.com/v1/tenants', {
  method: 'POST', headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    first_name: 'Test', last_name: 'Tenant',
    email: 'test-tenant@example.invalid', phone: '555-0100',
  }),
}).then(r => r.json());

await fetch('https://api.appfolio.com/v1/leases', {
  method: 'POST', headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    property_id: property.id, unit_number: '101',
    tenant_id: tenant.id, start_date: '2026-05-01', end_date: '2027-04-30',
    monthly_rent: 1450, security_deposit: 1450,
  }),
}).then(r => r.json());
Step 4: Query Occupancy
typescript
const units = await fetch(
  `https://api.appfolio.com/v1/properties/${property.id}/units?status=vacant`,
  { headers },
).then(r => r.json());
console.log(`Vacant units: ${units.data.length} of ${units.meta.total}`);

Error Handling

IssueCauseFix
401 UnauthorizedExpired or invalid tokenRe-authenticate with client credentials
404 Not FoundWrong property/tenant IDVerify resource ID exists before referencing
422 UnprocessableMissing required fieldsCheck errors[] array in response body
409 ConflictDuplicate lease for unitQuery existing leases before creating
429 Too Many RequestsRate limit exceededBack off using Retry-After header value

Output

A successful run creates a property with units, adds a tenant, binds them via a lease, and reports vacancy counts. Console output confirms each resource ID on creation.

Examples

For a lease-creation change, run against a named synthetic sandbox unit and tenant with a stable idempotency key. Read the property and current leases, perform the candidate write once, then read back the resulting lease and record only IDs, dates, and the reconciliation status. Re-run the same request to prove it does not create a second lease. If the provider contract, endpoint, authorization, or prior-write outcome cannot be verified, stop before any write and send the case to the portfolio operator for reconciliation.
