Install and configure Glean API authentication with indexing and client tokens.

  • Works in 3 steps: Obtain API Tokens → Configure Environment Variables → Install SDK and Verify
  • Setting up custom datasource indexing
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Prerequisites, Instructions and Error Handling, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls npm; needs GLEAN_INDEXING_TOKEN and GLEAN_CLIENT_TOKEN

What it does

Glean Install Auth is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Install and configure Glean API authentication with indexing and client tokens. Use when setting up custom datasource indexing, configuring search API access, or initializing the Glean developer SDK for enterprise search. Trigger: "install glean", "setup glean", "glean auth", "glean API token".

Its SKILL.md is about 1k 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. 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

  • Setting up custom datasource indexing
  • Configuring search API access
  • Initializing the Glean developer SDK for enterprise search

Example prompts

  • “install glean”
  • “setup glean”
  • “glean auth”
  • “/glean-install-auth”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A credential in GLEAN_INDEXING_TOKEN
  • A credential in GLEAN_CLIENT_TOKEN
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash(npm:*), Bash(curl:*), Grep

Workflow steps

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

  1. Obtain API Tokens
  2. Configure Environment Variables
  3. Install SDK and Verify

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
    • Bash(npm:*)
    • Bash(curl:*)
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    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):

    • developers.glean.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • GLEAN_INDEXING_TOKEN
    • GLEAN_CLIENT_TOKEN

    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

Glean Install Auth loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~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: notes

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

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:49
    # .env (NEVER commit)

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.

Glean Install & Auth

Overview

Configure Glean API authentication for enterprise search and knowledge management. Glean has two APIs: the Indexing API (push content into search) and the Client API (search and retrieve). Each uses separate tokens. Base URL: https://<domain>-be.glean.com/api.

Prerequisites

  • Glean enterprise account with admin access
  • API token from Glean Admin > API Tokens
  • Your Glean deployment domain (e.g., company-be.glean.com)

Instructions

Step 1: Obtain API Tokens

Navigate to Glean Admin Console > Settings > API:

Token TypePurposeRequired Header
Indexing API tokenPush documents into search indexAuthorization: Bearer <token>
Client API tokenSearch, chat, user-scoped queriesAuthorization: Bearer <token> + X-Glean-Auth-Type: BEARER
Step 2: Configure Environment Variables
bash
# .env (NEVER commit)
GLEAN_DOMAIN=company-be.glean.com
GLEAN_INDEXING_TOKEN=glean_idx_...
GLEAN_CLIENT_TOKEN=glean_cli_...
GLEAN_DATASOURCE=custom_app  # Your custom datasource name
Step 3: Install SDK and Verify
bash
npm install @anthropic-ai/glean-indexing-api-client  # Or use fetch directly
typescript
const GLEAN_BASE = `https://${process.env.GLEAN_DOMAIN}/api`;

// Verify indexing API access
async function verifyIndexingAccess() {
  const res = await fetch(`${GLEAN_BASE}/index/v1/getdatasourceconfig`, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.GLEAN_INDEXING_TOKEN}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ datasource: process.env.GLEAN_DATASOURCE }),
  });
  const config = await res.json();
  console.log(`Connected. Datasource: ${config.name}`);
}

// Verify client API access
async function verifySearchAccess() {
  const res = await fetch(`${GLEAN_BASE}/client/v1/search`, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.GLEAN_CLIENT_TOKEN}`,
      'X-Glean-Auth-Type': 'BEARER',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ query: 'test', pageSize: 1 }),
  });
  const results = await res.json();
  console.log(`Search works. Found ${results.results?.length ?? 0} results.`);
}

Error Handling

ErrorCodeCauseSolution
Unauthorized401Invalid tokenRegenerate in Admin > API Tokens
Forbidden403Token lacks scopeUse correct token type (indexing vs client)
Not Found404Wrong domainVerify GLEAN_DOMAIN includes -be suffix

Output

Return an authentication setup receipt containing the environment, secret reference (not its value), token scope class, destination allowlist result, synthetic connectivity status, and rotation/cleanup owner. Never print a token or actual request header.

Examples

env=sandbox; secret_ref=glean-client-v4; scope=search-only; destination=approved; synthetic_probe=200; rotation_owner=platform-ops proves setup without exposing a credential.

Next Steps

After auth, proceed to glean-hello-world for your first index and search.
