What it does

Appfolio Hello World is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Query AppFolio properties, units, and tenants via REST API. Trigger: "appfolio hello world".

Its SKILL.md is about 840 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 Backend & APIs, covering REST APIs. 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 REST APIs

Example prompts

  • “appfolio hello world”
  • “/appfolio-hello-world”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • 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. Configure the Client
  2. List Properties
  3. Get Tenant Details
  4. Stop Before Writes

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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • appfolio.com
    • engineering.appfolio.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    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 Hello World loads about 839 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 281 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~839

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 Hello World

Overview

Get started with the AppFolio Property Manager API through a verified provider-issued client configuration. This skill walks through safe first reads for a property listing and a tenant count; create or update operations belong only in a separately approved synthetic sandbox workflow.

Prerequisites

  • AppFolio Stack Partner account with API access
  • A managed, provider-issued base URL and authentication client confirmed for the target portfolio; do not use a guessed hostname or credential scheme
  • Node.js 18+ and TypeScript

Instructions

Step 1: Configure the Client
typescript
async function appfolioFetch(path: string) {
  const res = await createVerifiedAppFolioClient().get(path);
  if (res.status < 200 || res.status >= 300) throw new Error(`AppFolio ${res.status}`);
  return res.data;
}
Step 2: List Properties
typescript
const properties = await appfolioFetch("/properties?page_size=10");
console.log(`Found ${properties.length} properties`);
properties.forEach((p: any) => console.log(`  property ID: ${p.id}`));
Step 3: Get Tenant Details
typescript
const tenants = await appfolioFetch(`/tenants?property_id=${properties[0].id}`);
console.log(`Retrieved ${tenants.length} tenant records for the approved fixture`);
Step 4: Stop Before Writes
typescript
// Do not create a work order as a quickstart test. Continue only with the
// synthetic, idempotent workflow in appfolio-core-workflow-b.

Output

A successful run proves the managed client and an approved safe-read endpoint work, returning only property IDs and a tenant-record count in its local output.

Examples

For a first integration check, configure the verified sandbox client, query one approved synthetic property page, and confirm its status, property IDs, and tenant count without recording addresses, names, unit numbers, or credentials. Do not create a work order merely to test access. If the portfolio contract, safe-read fixture, or response authorization is not verified, stop the run and use the credential owner’s staging process before attempting any mutation.

Error Handling
