What it does

Hex SDK Patterns is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Apply production-ready Hex SDK patterns for TypeScript and Python. Use when implementing Hex integrations, refactoring SDK usage, or establishing team coding standards for Hex. Trigger with phrases like "hex SDK patterns", "hex best practices", "hex code patterns", "idiomatic hex".

Its SKILL.md is about 800 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 Development, covering Code quality and Refactoring. It works with Python and TypeScript. 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

  • Implementing Hex integrations
  • Refactoring SDK usage
  • Establishing team coding standards for Hex
  • With phrases like hex SDK patterns

Example prompts

  • “hex SDK patterns”
  • “hex best practices”
  • “hex code patterns”
  • “/hex-sdk-patterns”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in HEX_API_TOKEN
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run with Retry
  2. Python Client (hextoolkit)
  3. Airflow Integration

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 80f86df. 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

    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 python and typescript).

    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):

    • learn.hex.tech
    • github.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • HEX_API_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

Hex SDK Patterns loads about 803 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 75 tokens; SKILL.md has 161 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~75
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~803

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.

Hex SDK Patterns

Overview

Production patterns for Hex API: typed client, pipeline orchestration, retry logic, and Python integration.

Instructions

Step 1: Run with Retry
typescript
async function runWithRetry(client: HexClient, projectId: string, params: Record<string, any>, maxRetries = 2) {
  for (let i = 0; i <= maxRetries; i++) {
    try {
      const { runId } = await client.runProject(projectId, params);
      const result = await pollUntilComplete(client, projectId, runId);
      return result;
    } catch (err: any) {
      if (i === maxRetries || !err.message.includes('429')) throw err;
      await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 30000)); // Wait 30s on rate limit
    }
  }
}
Step 2: Python Client (hextoolkit)
python
# pip install hextoolkit
from hextoolkit import HexAPI

hex_api = HexAPI(token=os.environ['HEX_API_TOKEN'])

# List projects
projects = hex_api.list_projects()

# Run project
run = hex_api.run_project('project-id', input_params={'date': '2025-01-01'})

# Poll for completion
status = hex_api.get_run_status('project-id', run['runId'])
Step 3: Airflow Integration
python
# Using the hex-inc/airflow-provider-hex package
from airflow_provider_hex.operators.hex import HexRunProjectOperator

run_task = HexRunProjectOperator(
    task_id='run_hex_project',
    project_id='your-project-id',
    input_params={'date': '{{ ds }}'},
    hex_conn_id='hex_default',
    wait_for_completion=True,
    timeout=600,
)

Prerequisites

  • A typed client boundary, secret-manager reference, environment allowlist, and a sandbox project using fictional or approved non-sensitive data.
  • An explicit execution budget, idempotency/correlation convention, and policy that unknown project scope or response shape fails closed.

Output

Produce an SDK receipt with client revision, environment, opaque project/run IDs, parameter schema revision, execution state, aggregate result checks, and rollback/cancel reference. Do not include API tokens, SQL, cell output, or workspace data.

Error Handling

Classify authentication, authorization, validation, quota, timeout, and terminal-run failures separately. Do not retry a write-like project run without idempotency, broaden scope to bypass a denial, or log notebook output for diagnosis.

Examples

sdk=v3; env=sandbox; project=proj-opaque-11; params=r4; run=succeeded; row_count=within-range; cancel=not-needed is a safe SDK execution receipt.
