Hootsuite Prod Checklist

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Deploying Hootsuite integrations to production
• Preparing for launch
• Implementing go-live procedures
• With phrases like hootsuite production

Example prompts

• “hootsuite production”
• “deploy hootsuite”
• “hootsuite go-live”
• “/hootsuite-prod-checklist”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Confirm environment, secret reference, profile, audience, approval state, configuration revision, and owner approval before enabling…
2. 2Run bounded draft-only canary operations and verify health, quota, approval, and public_posts=0 assertions.
3. 3Monitor aggregate metrics through the observation window; halt on scope, audience, approval, or publication drift.
4. 4Promote only through the approved human-publication path, or cancel/revert to the prior revision and record the result.
5. 5Close after owner acceptance of the redacted receipt and revocation of temporary access.

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
  • Bash(curl:*)
  • 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).

  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

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

• Credentials

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

  • HOOTSUITE_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

Hootsuite Prod Checklist loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 454 words of instructions outside code blocks.

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

~84

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.5k

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

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.
