What it does

Intercom Hello World is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Create a minimal working Intercom example with contacts, conversations, and messages. Use when starting a new Intercom integration, testing your setup, or learning the core Intercom API data model. Trigger with phrases like "intercom hello world", "intercom example", "intercom quick start", "simple intercom code", "first intercom API call".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/complete-script.md` and `references/walkthrough.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Integration testing. It works with Intercom. 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

  • Starting a new Intercom integration
  • Testing your setup
  • Learning the core Intercom API data model
  • With phrases like intercom hello world

Example prompts

  • “intercom hello world”
  • “intercom example”
  • “intercom quick start”
  • “/intercom-hello-world”

Requirements

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

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

    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.intercom.com
    • 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:

    • INTERCOM_ACCESS_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

Intercom Hello World loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 476 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.5k

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

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.

Intercom Hello World

Overview

Minimal working examples covering the Intercom core data model: contacts (users and leads), conversations, messages, and tags. This skill gives you the first end-to-end round trip against the Intercom REST API — create a contact, search it, message it, open a conversation, and tag it — so you can confirm your credentials work and internalize how the entities relate before building anything real.

Prerequisites

Before running any snippet below, make sure the following are in place. Each is verified once during the intercom-install-auth setup step:

  • Completed the intercom-install-auth setup (installs the SDK and stores your token).
  • The intercom-client npm package installed in your project (npm install intercom-client).
  • A valid Intercom access token exported as INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN in your environment. The SDK reads this token to authenticate every request; there is no separate login call.

Instructions

The workflow is five short steps against the core data model. The first — creating a contact — is shown in full here so you can run immediately. Steps 2 through 5 (search, message, conversation, tag) follow the identical client.<resource>.<verb>(...) shape and live in the walkthrough reference.

Step 1: Create a Contact

Contacts are the core entity. They have a role of either user (identified) or lead (anonymous).

typescript
import { IntercomClient } from "intercom-client";

const client = new IntercomClient({
  token: process.env.INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN!,
});

// Create a user contact
const user = await client.contacts.create({
  role: "user",
  externalId: "user-12345",
  email: "jane@example.com",
  name: "Jane Smith",
});

console.log(`Created contact: ${user.id} (${user.role})`);
Remaining steps

Continue in the full walkthrough, which covers, with complete code and response shapes:

  • Step 2 — Search for Contacts (client.contacts.search)
  • Step 3 — Send a Message (client.messages.create, admin → contact)
  • Step 4 — Create a Conversation (client.conversations.create)
  • Step 5 — Tag a Contact (client.tags.create + client.contacts.tag)

The walkthrough also carries the full Core Data Model reference table (Contact, Conversation, Message, Tag, Company, Admin and their key fields).

Show full SKILL.md (211 more words)Show less

Output

Running the snippets produces:

  • A created contact object — id, role, email, external_id, custom_attributes, and timestamps (see the full response shape in the walkthrough).
  • Console log lines confirming each operation, e.g. Created contact: 6657add46abd0167d9419c3a (user).
  • When you run the end-to-end script, a short report of your authenticated admin name plus workspace contact and conversation counts.

Nothing is written to disk — every result is an in-memory API object plus the console.log lines above. A successful run means every call returned without throwing.

Error Handling

ErrorCauseSolution
not_found (404)Contact/conversation ID invalidVerify the ID exists
parameter_invalidMissing required fieldCheck required params in docs
conflict (409)Duplicate external_idUse unique identifiers
unauthorized (401)Invalid tokenRegenerate access token (re-run intercom-install-auth)

Examples

  • Full five-step walkthrough — create, search, message, converse, and tag, each with complete code and response shapes: references/walkthrough.md.
  • Complete working script — one runnable file that verifies the connection, creates a contact, and lists workspace contacts and conversations, with the expected console output: references/complete-script.md.

Both are copy-paste runnable once the Prerequisites above are met.
