Upgrade the intercom-client SDK across major versions and handle Intercom API version changes safely.

  • Works in 4 steps: Check current versions → Migrate the code (v5 → v6) → Pin the API version if needed → …
  • A project is pinned to an old intercom-client release
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Prerequisites, Authentication and Instructions, plus 5 more sections
  • Calls npm, npx and curl; reaches api.intercom.io; needs INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN and DEV_TOKEN

What it does

Intercom Upgrade Migration is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Upgrade the intercom-client SDK across major versions and handle Intercom API version changes safely. Use when a project is pinned to an old intercom-client release, when the v5 CommonJS API must move to the v6 TypeScript rewrite, or when detecting breaking changes in a new Intercom release before shipping. Trigger with phrases like "upgrade intercom", "intercom migration", "intercom breaking changes", "update intercom SDK", "intercom API version".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/examples.md` and `references/migration-guide.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Testing & QA. It works with Intercom, TypeScript and npm. 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

  • A project is pinned to an old intercom-client release
  • The v5 CommonJS API must move to the v6 TypeScript rewrite
  • Detecting breaking changes in a new Intercom release before shipping
  • With phrases like upgrade intercom

Example prompts

  • “upgrade intercom”
  • “intercom migration”
  • “intercom breaking changes”
  • “/intercom-upgrade-migration”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Check current versions
  2. Migrate the code (v5 → v6)
  3. Pin the API version if needed
  4. Run the type-checked upgrade on a branch

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(git:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • npx
    • curl
    • git

    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:

    • api.intercom.io

    Also links to:

    • github.com
    • developers.intercom.com
    • npmjs.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
    • DEV_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 Upgrade Migration loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 120 tokens; SKILL.md has 612 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~120
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.3k

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 Upgrade & Migration

Overview

Upgrade the intercom-client npm package and handle Intercom API version changes without breaking production traffic. The v6 TypeScript rewrite changed the API surface — most notably unifying users/leads into a single contacts API — so this skill drives a branch-based, type-checked upgrade that surfaces every breaking change through the compiler and test suite before merge.

Deep material lives in references/ so this file stays scannable:

  • Full v5 → v6 migration guide — every changed operation with before/after code, API-version pinning, the upgrade procedure, type-import changes, and the method cheat sheet.
  • Worked examples — three end-to-end runs from version detection through a committed upgrade branch.

Prerequisites

  • A project with intercom-client already installed (npm list intercom-client shows the current version).
  • Git available for branch-based upgrades and reviewable diffs.
  • A working test suite, ideally including an integration suite that can run against a dev Intercom workspace.
  • TypeScript (tsc) configured if migrating to v6+, since the compiler is the primary breaking-change detector.

Authentication

Intercom API calls authenticate with a workspace access token passed as a Bearer token. Read it from the INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable — never hardcode it. Version-detection curls and the integration test step both consume this variable:

bash
export INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN="<workspace-access-token>"   # from Intercom > Developer Hub

Use a separate dev-workspace token ($DEV_TOKEN) for the integration test step so the upgrade is validated without touching production data.

Instructions

Follow the workflow at a high level here; drill into the migration guide for the exact code diffs.

Step 1: Check current versions

Read (with the Read tool or npm list) the installed version, the latest published version, and the live API version to size the upgrade:

bash
npm list intercom-client                  # installed SDK version
npm view intercom-client version          # latest available
curl -s -D - -o /dev/null \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  https://api.intercom.io/me 2>/dev/null | grep -i intercom-version

If the installed major is < 6 and the target is ≥ 6, expect the TypeScript-rewrite breaking changes.

Step 2: Migrate the code (v5 → v6)

For a major crossing, apply the breaking-change diffs with the Edit/Write tools: swap new Intercom.Client() for new IntercomClient(), move users/leads calls to the unified contacts API, rename positional params (id → contactId/conversationId), and update error handling to the IntercomError instance check. The full before/after set and a one-line-per-method cheat sheet are in the migration guide.

Step 3: Pin the API version if needed

The SDK sends a compatible Intercom-Version header automatically. Pin it explicitly only when using raw fetch requests or when a response shape must be frozen — see the API-version-pinning section of the migration guide.

Step 4: Run the type-checked upgrade on a branch

Do the whole upgrade on a dedicated branch so TypeScript and the tests gate it:

bash
git checkout -b upgrade/intercom-client-v6
npm install intercom-client@latest
npx tsc --noEmit 2>&1 | grep "intercom"    # surfaces every breaking change
npm test

Fix each error the compiler reports, re-run until clean, then validate against a dev workspace and commit. The complete procedure is in the migration guide.

Output

Running this skill produces:

  • A dedicated upgrade branch (e.g. upgrade/intercom-client-v6) with intercom-client bumped in package.json / lockfile.
  • Source edits that migrate every v5 call site to the v6 API surface.
  • A clean npx tsc --noEmit run (no remaining intercom-client type errors) and a green npm test / integration run against a dev workspace.
  • A commit ready for PR, e.g. chore: upgrade intercom-client to v6.

Error Handling

Property 'id' does not existChanged param namesUse contactId, conversationId
Response shape changedRuntime errorsCheck API version headers, pin Intercom-Version
401 Unauthorizedcurl/test failsVerify INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN is set and valid

Examples

Quick skeleton — detect, then migrate one call:

bash
npm list intercom-client        # e.g. 5.4.0
npm view intercom-client version # e.g. 6.4.0 → major upgrade
typescript
// v5  → migrate to →  v6
// await client.users.create({ email });
await client.contacts.create({ role: "user", email });

Three full end-to-end runs — version detection, a single-call migration, and a complete branch upgrade — are in references/examples.md.

Next Steps

After the upgrade branch is green, wire the version bump into CI so future regressions are caught automatically — see the intercom-ci-integration skill for the pipeline configuration.
