What it does

Bamboohr Core Workflow A is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Build a permission-aware BambooHR employee and dataset synchronization workflow with pagination, field minimization, and checkpoints. Use when exporting employee changes or replacing deprecated report calls. Trigger with "sync BambooHR employees", "BambooHR dataset", or "BambooHR HR pipeline".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Backend & 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

  • Exporting employee changes
  • Replacing deprecated report calls
  • With sync BambooHR employees
  • BambooHR dataset

Example prompts

  • “sync BambooHR employees”
  • “BambooHR dataset”
  • “BambooHR HR pipeline”
  • “/bamboohr-core-workflow-a”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Define the business purpose, legal basis, tenant, destination, data owner,

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
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Bamboohr Core Workflow A loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 500 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.9k

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.

BambooHR Employee and Dataset Sync

Overview

Design a resumable read pipeline for employee data. Prefer BambooHR's dataset v2 contract for new bulk data work, minimize fields at the source, and treat missing fields as a possible permission decision rather than automatically as data loss.

Prerequisites

  • The target repository or integration path and the requested operator outcome.
  • The tenant, identity, and data scope only when approved live work is in scope.
  • The current evidence register plus customer-specific permissions and agreements.

Current Contract

  • Employee endpoints include list, get, create, and update operations.
  • POST /api/v2/datasets/{datasetName}/data accepts fields, OData-style filter, orderBy, page, and pageSize and returns data, links, and meta; page size is at most 1000 in the reviewed OpenAPI.
  • Dataset v1 data calls are deprecated. Dataset discovery and field discovery use v1.2 endpoints in the current OpenAPI.
  • Legacy custom-report endpoints carry deprecation notices. Do not start a new pipeline on them merely because old examples do.

Authentication

Use OAuth scope report where the documented dataset operation requires it, or a dedicated API-key user with access only to selected fields. Bind credentials, checkpoint, and destination namespace to one tenant.

Instructions

  1. Define the business purpose, legal basis, tenant, destination, data owner, refresh target, and exact employee fields before making a request.
  2. Discover the dataset and its field definitions from current endpoints. Save field IDs and semantic mappings as reviewed configuration, not assumptions.
  3. Query dataset v2 with deterministic ordering. Keep every ordered field in the requested fields list and bound pageSize to the documented maximum.
  4. Follow returned pagination metadata or links until completion. Persist a checkpoint only after the destination transaction commits.
  5. Upsert by a stable tenant-scoped employee identifier. Distinguish absent, null, redacted, future-dated, and inactive values.
  6. Reconcile source count, received count, accepted count, rejected count, and destination count. Quarantine schema or permission drift instead of deleting.
  7. Encrypt retained HR data and delete raw page bodies after the approved retention window.

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect mappings, schemas, and checkpoints. Use Write/Edit only for approved pipeline code, configuration, and tests. Do not use this skill to fetch production employee data or mutate a downstream system.

Approval Boundaries

Require approval for the field set, inactive/future employee inclusion, production tenant, destination, retention policy, and any employee create or update operation. Reads do not authorize writes.

Output

Return dataset and field selection, auth identity, pagination and checkpoint design, mapping contract, reconciliation counts, retention controls, tests, and all unapproved live operations.

Error Handling

  • 403: re-check field-level permission and requested dataset; do not request broader access without a business owner.
  • 413: reduce page size or field set; never silently drop records.
  • 422: reject the invalid filter/order contract and preserve the checkpoint.
  • Missing field with 200: compare requested and returned schemas because some report paths omit inaccessible fields without failing.

Examples

  • "Sync active employees to the warehouse" produces a minimized dataset v2 plan.
  • "Copy every employee field" pauses for field necessity and retention approval.
