Create a minimal working MaintainX example - your first work order.

  • Works in 3 steps: Create a Work Order (curl) → Create a Work Order (TypeScript) → Verify and Clean Up
  • Starting a new MaintainX integration
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Prerequisites, Instructions and Output, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls curl and jq; reaches api.getmaintainx.com; needs MAINTAINX_API_KEY

What it does

Maintainx Hello World is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Create a minimal working MaintainX example - your first work order. Use when starting a new MaintainX integration, testing your setup, or learning basic MaintainX API patterns. Trigger with phrases like "maintainx hello world", "maintainx example", "maintainx quick start", "create first work order", "simple maintainx code".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/implementation-guide.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Integration testing. 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 MaintainX integration
  • Testing your setup
  • Learning basic MaintainX API patterns
  • With phrases like maintainx hello world

Example prompts

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

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Create a Work Order (curl)
  2. Create a Work Order (TypeScript)
  3. Verify and Clean Up

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(curl:*)
    • Bash(node:*)
    • Bash(npx:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • jq

    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.getmaintainx.com

    Also links to:

    • help.getmaintainx.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • MAINTAINX_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

Maintainx Hello World loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 172 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
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.7k

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.

MaintainX Hello World

Overview

Create your first work order using the MaintainX REST API -- the core building block of CMMS operations.

Prerequisites

  • Completed maintainx-install-auth setup
  • Valid MAINTAINX_API_KEY environment variable
  • Node.js 18+ or curl

Instructions

Step 1: Create a Work Order (curl)
bash
curl -X POST https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1/workorders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAINTAINX_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "Hello World - Test Work Order",
    "description": "First API-created work order. Safe to delete.",
    "priority": "LOW",
    "status": "OPEN"
  }' | jq .

Expected response:

json
{
  "id": 12345,
  "title": "Hello World - Test Work Order",
  "status": "OPEN",
  "priority": "LOW",
  "createdAt": "2026-03-19T12:00:00Z"
}
Step 2: Create a Work Order (TypeScript)
typescript
// hello-maintainx.ts
import { MaintainXClient } from './maintainx/client';

async function helloMaintainX() {
  const client = new MaintainXClient();

  // Create a basic work order
  const { data: workOrder } = await client.createWorkOrder({
    title: 'HVAC Filter Replacement - Building A',
    description: 'Replace air filters in units 1-4 on the 3rd floor.',
    priority: 'MEDIUM',
  });
  console.log('Created work order:', workOrder.id);

  // Retrieve it back to confirm
  const { data: fetched } = await client.getWorkOrder(workOrder.id);
  console.log('Work order status:', fetched.status);
  console.log('Created at:', fetched.createdAt);

  // List open work orders
  const { data: list } = await client.getWorkOrders({
    status: 'OPEN',
    limit: 5,
  });
  console.log(`Found ${list.workOrders.length} open work orders`);
}

helloMaintainX();
Step 3: Verify and Clean Up
bash
# List recent work orders to confirm creation
curl -s "https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1/workorders?limit=3" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAINTAINX_API_KEY" | jq '.workOrders[] | {id, title, status}'

# Delete the test work order (replace ID)
curl -X DELETE "https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1/workorders/12345" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAINTAINX_API_KEY"

Output

  • Working code file that creates a MaintainX work order via REST API
  • Console output showing the created work order ID, status, and timestamp
  • Verified retrieval of the created work order

Error Handling

ErrorCauseSolution
400 Bad RequestMissing required title fieldInclude at least title in the POST body

Next Steps

Proceed to maintainx-local-dev-loop for development workflow setup.

Examples

Create a work order tied to an asset:

typescript
const wo = await client.createWorkOrder({
  title: 'Conveyor Belt #7 - Bearing Replacement',
  description: 'Replace worn bearings on the main drive shaft.',
  priority: 'HIGH',
  assetId: 98765,       // Link to equipment asset
  locationId: 54321,    // Link to facility location
  assignees: [{ type: 'USER', id: 111 }],
  dueDate: '2026-03-25T17:00:00Z',
});

Create a work order from a preventive maintenance template:

bash
curl -X POST https://api.getmaintainx.com/v1/workorders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MAINTAINX_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "Monthly Fire Extinguisher Inspection",
    "priority": "MEDIUM",
    "categories": ["PREVENTIVE"],
    "procedureId": 7890
  }'
