What it does

Klaviyo Upgrade Migration is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Upgrade Klaviyo SDK versions and migrate between API revisions. Use when upgrading the klaviyo-api package, migrating from v1/v2 legacy APIs to the current REST API, or handling breaking changes between revisions. Trigger with phrases like "upgrade klaviyo", "klaviyo migration", "klaviyo breaking changes", "update klaviyo SDK", "klaviyo API revision".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/migration-patterns.md` and `references/upgrade-procedure.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Email marketing. 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

  • Upgrading the klaviyo-api package
  • Migrating from v1/v2 legacy APIs to the current REST API
  • Handling breaking changes between revisions
  • With phrases like upgrade klaviyo

Example prompts

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

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Assess the current state
  2. Find affected usage
  3. Apply the matching migration pattern
  4. Upgrade, verify, and ship
  5. Roll back if needed

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
    • Edit
    • Bash(npm:*)
    • Bash(git:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • npx
    • git

    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 Upgrade Migration loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 595 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.8k

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.

Klaviyo Upgrade & Migration

Overview

Guide for upgrading the klaviyo-api SDK, migrating from legacy v1/v2 APIs, and handling breaking changes between Klaviyo API revisions. The workflow assesses the current version, surfaces breaking changes with the TypeScript compiler, applies the matching migration pattern, and ships behind a staging deploy with a clean rollback.

Deep before/after code and the full command sequence live in references/ so this file stays a scannable map of the workflow:

  • Migration patterns — legacy v1/v2 → current API, SDK major upgrade (ConfigWrapper → ApiKeySession), property casing.
  • Upgrade & rollback procedure — pinned install, tsc/test gates, staging deploy, rollback, migration checklist.

Prerequisites

  • The klaviyo-api package installed and a known current version (npm list klaviyo-api).
  • Git available, with a clean working tree so the upgrade lands on its own branch.
  • A working test suite (npm test), and ideally a staging integration test target.
  • A Klaviyo private API key in the environment for integration verification.

Klaviyo API Revision Timeline

Each revision is supported for 2 years after release. Plan to move to the latest every 12-18 months so you never fall inside the deprecation window.

RevisionReleasedDeprecatedKey Changes
2024-10-15Oct 2024Oct 2026Reporting API, campaign message updates
2024-07-15Jul 2024Jul 2026Custom objects, tracking settings
2024-02-15Feb 2024Feb 2026Bulk operations, segments V2
2023-12-15Dec 2023Dec 2025Profile subscription changes
2023-07-15Jul 2023Jul 2025Relationship endpoint restructuring

Instructions

Step 1: Assess the current state

Compare what is installed against what is published to size the jump. A single major step is routine; skipping several majors means expect casing and import changes.

bash
npm list klaviyo-api          # e.g. klaviyo-api@15.0.0
npm view klaviyo-api version  # latest, e.g. 21.0.0
Step 2: Find affected usage

Read the releases changelog for the target major, then locate the call sites that will need edits.

bash
grep -rn "from 'klaviyo-api'" src/
grep -rn "ApiKeySession\|ConfigWrapper\|ProfilesApi\|EventsApi" src/
Step 3: Apply the matching migration pattern

Pick the pattern that fits the errors you see and edit each call site. Full before/after code is in migration patterns:

  • Legacy v1/v2 → current API — replace raw /api/v2/... HTTP calls with typed EventsApi / ProfilesApi resource classes.
  • SDK major upgrade — swap the global ConfigWrapper('pk_***') for a per-instance new ApiKeySession('pk_***') passed to each *Api.
  • Property casing — rename snake_case attributes (first_name) to camelCase (firstName).

Step 4: Upgrade, verify, and ship

Install the target version pinned, let tsc and the test suite gate the change, and deploy to staging before production. Full commands: upgrade procedure.

bash
git checkout -b upgrade/klaviyo-api-v21
npm install klaviyo-api@21.0.0 --save-exact
npx tsc --noEmit 2>&1 | grep -i "klaviyo\|error TS"   # find breaking changes
npm test
Step 5: Roll back if needed

If error rates rise after the upgrade, reinstall the previous exact version — see the rollback procedure. Because Step 4 pinned versions, rollback is a clean reinstall with no dependency guesswork.

Output

Running this workflow produces:

  • An upgrade/klaviyo-api-vNN branch with package.json + package-lock.json pinned to the target version via --save-exact.
  • Edited call sites in src/ using the current ApiKeySession pattern and camelCase attributes, with npx tsc --noEmit clean.
  • A green npm test (and staging test:integration) run confirming the migration.
  • A commit deployed to staging first, with a documented rollback commit ready if 24-hour error monitoring flags a regression.

Error Handling

IssueCauseSolution
TypeError: ConfigWrapper is not a functionOld SDK patternSwitch to ApiKeySession pattern
Property 'first_name' does not existCasing changeUse firstName (camelCase)
response.data is undefinedAccess pattern changeUse response.body.data
revision not supportedDeprecated revisionUpdate revision header value

Examples

Migrate a v2 identify call to the current SDK. After grep finds a legacy /api/identify call, replace it with createOrUpdateProfile:

typescript
import { ApiKeySession, ProfilesApi, ProfileEnum } from 'klaviyo-api';

const session = new ApiKeySession(process.env.KLAVIYO_PRIVATE_KEY!);
const profilesApi = new ProfilesApi(session);
await profilesApi.createOrUpdateProfile({
  data: {
    type: ProfileEnum.Profile,
    attributes: { email: 'user@example.com', firstName: 'Jane', properties: { plan: 'pro' } },
  },
});

The full set of before/after examples — event tracking, the ConfigWrapper → ApiKeySession upgrade, and property casing — is in migration patterns.
