What it does

Bamboohr Security Basics is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Threat-model and harden a BambooHR integration that handles employee PII, OAuth tokens, API keys, files, and webhooks. Use when reviewing access, storage, logging, or incident controls. Trigger with "secure BambooHR", "BambooHR PII", "BambooHR threat model", or "BambooHR secrets".

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, covering Webhooks, Threat modeling and OAuth and OpenID Connect. 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

  • Reviewing access
  • Incident controls
  • With secure BambooHR
  • BambooHR threat model

Example prompts

  • “secure BambooHR”
  • “BambooHR PII”
  • “BambooHR threat model”
  • “/bamboohr-security-basics”

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. Map trust boundaries: user/browser, callback, token store, connector,
  2. Inventory every requested field and classify sensitivity. Remove fields not
  3. Enforce tenant from trusted credential metadata, not from a request body.
  4. Redact authorization, keys, cookies, query strings, webhook secrets, and HR
  5. For webhooks, store the creation-only key atomically, verify HMAC-SHA256 over
  6. Encrypt in transit and at rest, set retention and deletion jobs, restrict
  7. Exercise cross-tenant access, denied fields, revoked credentials, replay,

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 Security Basics 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 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 469 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
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 Integration Security

Overview

Treat the connector as a high-sensitivity HR data system. Security is not only secret storage: it includes tenant isolation, field-level authorization, data minimization, webhook authenticity, auditability, and deletion.

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

BambooHR permissions affect which employee fields and operations an identity can access. The official SDK supports secure logging and request-ID extraction, but application logs, queues, databases, exports, and support artifacts remain the operator's responsibility. Webhook creation returns a one-time private key.

Authentication

Use OAuth for partner integrations with validated state, exact HTTPS redirect URIs, encrypted per-subject token storage, and persisted token rotation. For API keys, use a dedicated least-privilege user, named owner, expiry review, and tested revocation. Never share one identity across tenants.

Instructions

  1. Map trust boundaries: user/browser, callback, token store, connector, BambooHR tenant, queue, destination, logs, backups, support, and analytics.
  2. Inventory every requested field and classify sensitivity. Remove fields not tied to an approved purpose; isolate government IDs, compensation, medical, dependent, benefit, and file data.
  3. Enforce tenant from trusted credential metadata, not from a request body. Validate identifiers at every queue and storage boundary.
  4. Redact authorization, keys, cookies, query strings, webhook secrets, and HR values. Allow request IDs, operation names, status, latency, and safe counts.
  5. For webhooks, store the creation-only key atomically, verify HMAC-SHA256 over raw bytes using the currently documented carrier, compare in constant time, and reject before parsing or side effects.
  6. Encrypt in transit and at rest, set retention and deletion jobs, restrict backup access, and test subject/customer deletion obligations.
  7. Exercise cross-tenant access, denied fields, revoked credentials, replay, log injection, oversized payload, SSRF-like tenant input, and support-bundle exfiltration in tests.

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep for code and configuration inspection. Use Write/Edit only for explicitly approved hardening and regression tests. Never write sample secrets or real employee records.

Approval Boundaries

Require security/data-owner approval before broadening fields, OAuth scopes, API-key permissions, retention, destinations, webhook events, or support access. Do not rotate or revoke live credentials as part of an audit without approval.

Output

Return assets, trust boundaries, field inventory, identities and permissions, findings by severity, exact remediation, test evidence, retention/deletion controls, owners, and unresolved risk acceptances.

Error Handling

  • Suspected secret or HR-data exposure: stop collection, preserve minimal audit metadata, and invoke the organization's incident process.
  • Cross-tenant ambiguity: fail closed before a BambooHR or destination request.
  • Missing webhook verification contract: disable processing, not verification.

Examples

  • "Review our BambooHR logs" searches for sensitive categories without printing values.
  • "Give the connector admin access" is replaced by an operation/field permission map.

Resources

Read official evidence and the executed customer agreements before finalizing controls.
