What it does

Bamboohr Core Workflow B is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Govern BambooHR time-off, benefit, and employee-file operations with explicit read/write separation and HR approval. Use when integrating leave balances, benefit membership, or protected employee documents. Trigger with "BambooHR time off", "BambooHR benefits", "BambooHR files", or "BambooHR PTO".

Its SKILL.md is about 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

  • Integrating leave balances
  • Benefit membership
  • Protected employee documents
  • With BambooHR time off

Example prompts

  • “BambooHR time off”
  • “BambooHR benefits”
  • “BambooHR files”
  • “/bamboohr-core-workflow-b”

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. Classify the request as time-off, benefits, or files and as read or mutation.
  2. Discover IDs from authorized list operations; never accept an unqualified ID
  3. For reads, request only needed date range, fields, and records. Do not retain
  4. For a proposed mutation, generate a before/after preview and idempotency key.
  5. Obtain approval from the owning HR role immediately before execution. Re-read
  6. Verify status and state with a follow-up read. Record request ID and audit
  7. Define compensation for partial failure; never auto-reverse an approved HR

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 B loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 473 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~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 Time-Off, Benefits, and Files

Overview

Implement sensitive secondary HR workflows without collapsing reads and mutations into one privilege boundary. Each domain has different approvers, retention needs, and consequences; choose exactly one operation class per run.

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

The official SDK/OpenAPI exposes time-off policy, balance, request, and status operations; company and employee benefit reads; and company/employee file operations. Some operations return an empty body or plain text, so success must be determined from the documented status and follow-up read—not a guessed JSON shape.

Authentication

Use an OAuth client or dedicated API-key user whose permissions match the chosen domain and action. A file reader should not inherit time-off approval rights; a balance reader should not inherit employee-file access.

Instructions

  1. Classify the request as time-off, benefits, or files and as read or mutation. Record tenant, employee identifier, purpose, approver, and expected effect.
  2. Discover IDs from authorized list operations; never accept an unqualified ID from another tenant or infer a benefit, policy, request, or file identifier.
  3. For reads, request only needed date range, fields, and records. Do not retain file bytes or dependent/benefit data in general application logs.
  4. For a proposed mutation, generate a before/after preview and idempotency key. Validate policy, effective dates, units, status transition, and employee.
  5. Obtain approval from the owning HR role immediately before execution. Re-read the target after approval to detect intervening changes.
  6. Verify status and state with a follow-up read. Record request ID and audit metadata, not raw employee data.
  7. Define compensation for partial failure; never auto-reverse an approved HR action without a second authorization.

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect domain mappings and current safeguards. Use Write/Edit only for approved adapters, previews, and tests. The allowed tools do not authorize a live BambooHR read, download, or mutation.

Approval Boundaries

Require separate approval for any time-off request/status change, balance adjustment, benefit write, file upload/download/delete, or permission expansion. Never expose document contents in a chat transcript or CI artifact.

Output

Return domain, operation, tenant, minimized inputs, before/after preview, approval identity, response status, verification read, request ID, retention handling, and rollback or compensation status.

Error Handling

  • 403: report the exact operation and permission boundary.
  • 409 or 412: stop on state/policy conflict and refresh the preview.
  • Empty success body: use documented status and follow-up state.
  • Partial file transfer: discard the incomplete file and do not retry a write until idempotency is established.

Examples

  • "Show approved PTO next week" stays a time-bounded read.
  • "Approve this request and upload the doctor's note" becomes two independently approved operations with different evidence and retention controls.

Resources

Read official evidence before choosing an operation.
