Analyze a Canva Connect implementation for recurring authorization, async-job, preview, data, and retry hazards.

  • Works in 7 steps: Review OAuth → Review authorization → Review async work → …
  • Preparing release
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Prerequisites, Instructions and Authentication, plus 5 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Canva Known Pitfalls is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Analyze a Canva Connect implementation for recurring authorization, async-job, preview, data, and retry hazards. Use when reviewing code, preparing release, or investigating repeated failures. Trigger with: "review Canva pitfalls", "audit Canva integration", "find Canva anti-patterns".

Its SKILL.md is about 990 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: Review uses repository and redacted runtime evidence; live mutation is outside this skill.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Authorization and RBAC. It works with Canva. 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

  • Preparing release
  • Investigating repeated failures
  • With: review Canva pitfalls
  • Audit Canva integration

Example prompts

  • “review Canva pitfalls”
  • “audit Canva integration”
  • “find Canva anti-patterns”
  • “/canva-known-pitfalls”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Review uses repository and redacted runtime evidence; live mutation is outside this skill.
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

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

  1. Review OAuth
  2. Review authorization
  3. Review async work
  4. Review throttling
  5. Review data and telemetry
  6. Review release posture
  7. Record dispositions

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
    • 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

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

    • canva.dev

    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

    Review uses repository and redacted runtime evidence; live mutation is outside this skill.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Canva Known Pitfalls loads about 987 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 399 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
~987
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.1k

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.

Canva Integration Hazard Review

Overview

Turn common failure patterns into evidence-backed findings rather than universal rules. Reconfirm time-sensitive provider behavior against current first-party contracts before enforcing it.

Prerequisites

  • Repository scope, deployment/config version, and operation inventory
  • Pinned OpenAPI, current docs, granted scopes, and preview surfaces
  • Data policy, operation ledger, and redacted incident evidence

Instructions

Step 1: Review OAuth

Use Read and Grep to find browser-side secrets, missing state/PKCE validation, broad or implied scopes, refresh races, token logging, and incomplete disconnect cleanup.

Step 2: Review authorization

Check tenant and resource ownership, application role, explicit scopes, capabilities, and preview availability before every Canva-side action.

Step 3: Review async work

Find request handlers that block on long polling, lost job IDs, unbounded loops, duplicate submissions, and retries that do not reconcile existing state.

Step 4: Review throttling

Find guessed global quotas, fixed sleeps, assumed response headers, cross-tenant queues, and missing endpoint/user isolation.

Step 5: Review data and telemetry

Find cached signed URLs, retained content without purpose, token/profile logs, high-cardinality labels, and debug bundles without expiry or review.

Step 6: Review release posture

Find unpinned provider contracts, preview features on public-review paths, mutable deploys, missing rollback, and live CI on untrusted events.

Step 7: Record dispositions

Use Write or Edit to classify each finding with exact path/evidence, current provider source, severity, owner, safe fix, rollback, and verification test.

Authentication

Canva Connect calls use Bearer access tokens obtained by a backend through OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code with SHA-256 PKCE. Request explicit least-privilege scopes, keep client secrets and tokens out of browser-visible state, and serialize refresh so the replacement single-use refresh token is stored atomically.

Tool Discipline

Use Read and Grep for discovery and evidence. Use Write or Edit only for the approved artifact, code, configuration, test, or receipt described by this workflow; do not make an unapproved Canva-side change.

Output

  • Scoped decision or implementation artifact
  • Redacted operation and validation receipt
  • Failure, rollback, and follow-up ownership record

Examples

A review finds automatic retry wrapping design creation. The finding requires an operation ledger and existing-job reconciliation, rather than simply increasing a retry count.
