What it does

Hootsuite Common Errors is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Diagnose and fix Hootsuite common errors and exceptions. Use when encountering Hootsuite errors, debugging failed requests, or troubleshooting integration issues. Trigger with phrases like "hootsuite error", "fix hootsuite", "hootsuite not working", "debug hootsuite".

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 Development, covering Debugging. 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

  • Encountering Hootsuite errors
  • Debugging failed requests
  • Troubleshooting integration issues
  • With phrases like hootsuite error

Example prompts

  • “hootsuite error”
  • “fix hootsuite”
  • “hootsuite not working”
  • “/hootsuite-common-errors”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in HOOTSUITE_CLIENT_SECRET
  • A credential in HOOTSUITE_REFRESH_TOKEN
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Grep, Bash(curl:*)

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Classify authentication, authorization, profile lookup, approval, audience, validation, quota, and schedule errors before changes.
  2. Reproduce once with the draft-only fixture, capturing only status, latency, quota, and opaque IDs.
  3. Check scope, approval, audience, schedule state, and quota in that order.
  4. Apply one reversible change at a time and escalate a redacted bundle when the failure persists.

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
    • Bash(curl:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • platform.hootsuite.com

    Also links to:

    • developer.hootsuite.com
    • apidocs.hootsuite.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • HOOTSUITE_ACCESS_TOKEN
    • HOOTSUITE_CLIENT_SECRET
    • HOOTSUITE_REFRESH_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

Hootsuite Common Errors loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 370 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
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 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.

Hootsuite Common Errors

Error Reference

401 Unauthorized

Cause: Access token expired (tokens last ~1 hour). Fix: Refresh token via OAuth:

bash
curl -X POST https://platform.hootsuite.com/oauth2/token \
  -u "$HOOTSUITE_CLIENT_ID:$HOOTSUITE_CLIENT_SECRET" \
  -d "grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=$HOOTSUITE_REFRESH_TOKEN"
403 Forbidden

Cause: App lacks required permissions or user doesn't own the resource. Fix: Check app scopes in developer portal. Ensure user has access to the social profile.

422 Unprocessable Entity — scheduledSendTime

Cause: Scheduled time is in the past or invalid ISO 8601 format. Fix: Always use future dates in ISO 8601: new Date(Date.now() + 3600000).toISOString()

422 — socialProfileIds

Cause: Profile ID invalid or disconnected. Fix: List profiles first: GET /v1/socialProfiles and verify IDs.

429 Too Many Requests

Cause: Rate limit exceeded. Fix: Implement exponential backoff. See hootsuite-rate-limits.

Media Upload — State REJECTED

Cause: File too large, wrong format, or exceeds platform limits. Fix: Check per-platform limits: Twitter images 5MB, Facebook 10MB, video varies.

invalid_grant — Token Exchange

Cause: Authorization code expired (30 second lifetime) or already used. Fix: Re-initiate OAuth flow — codes are single-use and expire in 30s.

redirect_uri_mismatch

Cause: Redirect URI doesn't exactly match app registration. Fix: Must match character-for-character, including trailing slash.

Quick Diagnostics

bash
# Test token validity
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HOOTSUITE_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/me

# List profiles (verifies full API access)
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $HOOTSUITE_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  https://platform.hootsuite.com/v1/socialProfiles | python3 -m json.tool

Overview

This reference triages profile, schedule, approval, audience, and quota failures through redacted status and opaque IDs. It does not authorize copying post content, media, handles, or account metadata into a ticket.

Prerequisites

  • A draft-only sandbox probe, redacted correlation ID, endpoint class, and HTTP or terminal schedule status.
  • A scoped read-only diagnostic credential and named owner for account, audience, or approval changes.

Instructions

  1. Classify authentication, authorization, profile lookup, approval, audience, validation, quota, and schedule errors before changes.
  2. Reproduce once with the draft-only fixture, capturing only status, latency, quota, and opaque IDs.
  3. Check scope, approval, audience, schedule state, and quota in that order.
  4. Apply one reversible change at a time and escalate a redacted bundle when the failure persists.

Output

Return error class, correlation ID, profile scope, probe outcome, remediation attempted, and next owner. Do not include copy, media, handles, tokens, or identities.

Error Handling

Treat unknown profile/audience, missing approval, failed redaction, public-post path, or repeated non-idempotent schedule as a stop condition. Cancel/revert rather than retrying with broader scope.

Examples

status=429; profile=sandbox-brand; correlation=schedule-opaque-11; action=bounded-backoff; public_posts=0; safe_probe=recovered supports a safe handoff.
