Implement security best practices for Gamma integration. An agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace.

  • Works in 5 steps: Secure API Key Storage → Key Rotation Strategy → Request Signing (if supported) → …
  • Securing API keys
  • SKILL.md covers Output, Examples, Overview and Prerequisites, plus 5 more sections
  • Needs GAMMA_API_KEY

What it does

Gamma Security Basics is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Implement security best practices for Gamma integration. Use when securing API keys, implementing access controls, or auditing Gamma security configuration. Trigger with phrases like "gamma security", "gamma API key security", "gamma secure", "gamma credentials", "gamma access control".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Authorization and RBAC and Security review. 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

  • Securing API keys
  • Implementing access controls
  • Auditing Gamma security configuration
  • With phrases like gamma security

Example prompts

  • “gamma security”
  • “gamma API key security”
  • “gamma secure”
  • “/gamma-security-basics”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Secure API Key Storage
  2. Key Rotation Strategy
  3. Request Signing (if supported)
  4. Access Control Patterns
  5. Audit Logging

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
    • 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 and bash).

    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):

    • gamma.app
    • owasp.org

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GAMMA_API_KEY

    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

Gamma Security Basics loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 199 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
~1.2k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:65
    # .env (add to .gitignore!)
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:168
    - [ ] .env files in .gitignore

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.

Gamma Security Basics

Output

Maintain a security receipt with identity scope, secret reference, access-review date, control result, owner, and redacted incident state. Do not include tokens or private content.

Examples

Use a scoped staging credential and fictional deck to verify least-privilege access, revoke it, and confirm access is denied without exposing content or credentials in evidence.

Overview

Security best practices for Gamma API integration to protect credentials and data.

Prerequisites

  • Active Gamma integration
  • Environment variable support
  • Understanding of secret management

Instructions

Step 1: Secure API Key Storage
typescript
// NEVER do this
const gamma = new GammaClient({
  apiKey: 'gamma_live_abc123...', // Hardcoded - BAD!
});

// DO this instead
const gamma = new GammaClient({
  apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY,
});

Environment Setup:

bash
# .env (add to .gitignore!)
GAMMA_API_KEY=gamma_live_abc123...

# Load in application
import 'dotenv/config';
Step 2: Key Rotation Strategy
typescript
// Support multiple keys for rotation
const gamma = new GammaClient({
  apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY_PRIMARY
    || process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY_SECONDARY,
});

// Rotation script
async function rotateApiKey() {
  // 1. Generate new key in Gamma dashboard
  // 2. Update GAMMA_API_KEY_SECONDARY
  // 3. Deploy and verify
  // 4. Swap PRIMARY and SECONDARY
  // 5. Revoke old key
}
Step 3: Request Signing (if supported)
typescript
import crypto from 'crypto';

function signRequest(payload: object, secret: string): string {
  const timestamp = Date.now().toString();
  const message = timestamp + JSON.stringify(payload);

  return crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', secret)
    .update(message)
    .digest('hex');
}

// Usage with webhook verification
function verifyWebhook(body: string, signature: string, secret: string): boolean {
  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', secret)
    .update(body)
    .digest('hex');

  return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
    Buffer.from(signature),
    Buffer.from(expected)
  );
}
Step 4: Access Control Patterns
typescript
// Scoped API keys (if supported)
const readOnlyGamma = new GammaClient({
  apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY_READONLY,
  scopes: ['presentations:read', 'exports:read'],
});

const fullAccessGamma = new GammaClient({
  apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY_FULL,
});

// Permission check before operations
async function createPresentation(user: User, data: object) {
  if (!user.permissions.includes('gamma:create')) {
    throw new Error('Insufficient permissions');
  }
  return fullAccessGamma.presentations.create(data);
}
Step 5: Audit Logging
typescript
import { GammaClient } from '@gamma/sdk';

function createAuditedClient(userId: string) {
  return new GammaClient({
    apiKey: process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY,
    interceptors: {
      request: (config) => {
        console.log(JSON.stringify({
          timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
          userId,
          action: `${config.method} ${config.path}`,
          type: 'gamma_api_request',
        }));
        return config;
      },
    },
  });
}
