Klaviyo Hello World

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Starting a new Klaviyo integration
• Testing your setup
• Learning basic profile creation and event tracking patterns
• With phrases like klaviyo hello world

Example prompts

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

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Create a profile — profilesApi.createProfile(...) with a JSON:API
2. 2Track an event — eventsApi.createEvent(...) with a metric (created on
3. 3Retrieve the profile — profilesApi.getProfiles({ filter: '...' }) to
4. 4Run the combined script — npx tsx hello-klaviyo.ts.

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:

  • Write
  • Bash(npm:*)
  • Bash(npx:*)

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • npx
  • 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.klaviyo.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:

  • KLAVIYO_PRIVATE_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

Klaviyo Hello World loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 385 words of instructions outside code blocks.

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

~87

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

~1.2k

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

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.

description

Create a minimal working Klaviyo example with real API calls. Use when starting a new Klaviyo integration, testing your setup, or learning basic profile creation and event tracking patterns. Trigger with phrases like "klaviyo hello world", "klaviyo example", "klaviyo quick start", "simple klaviyo code", "first klaviyo call".
