Wires up an Airbyte connector for use in a PydanticAI or Claude SDK agent.

  • Adding a connector to an agent
  • SKILL.md covers Install the SDK, Core Pattern (PydanticAI), Decorator Stacking and Verify the Setup, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls uv; needs AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET
  • Setting up a new agent with a connector

What it does

Bootstrapping Agent is an agent skill from Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace. Wires up an Airbyte connector for use in a PydanticAI or Claude SDK agent. Generates auth config, connector initialization, and toolutils-decorated tool function. Use when adding a connector to an agent or setting up a new agent with a connector.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering. It works with Airbyte, Anthropic API and Pydantic AI. The repository describes itself as: Kilo Marketplace - A curated collection of Skills, MCP Servers, and Modes for enhancing AI agent capabilities across the Kilo ecosystem—including Kilo Code (VS Code extension)…

When your agent uses it

  • Adding a connector to an agent
  • Setting up a new agent with a connector

Example prompts

  • “Use the bootstrapping-agent skill to wire up an Airbyte connector for use in a PydanticAI or Claude SDK agent”
  • “/bootstrapping-agent”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ff51758. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • uv

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

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

  • Credentials

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

    • AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Bootstrapping Agent loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 208 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:109
    The developer needs these in their `.env`:

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 208 words (~1,045 tokens).

“The single airbyte-agent-sdk package ships every typed connector. Import them from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.{slug}. tool_utils, list_entities(), and entity_schema() are only available on typed connectors.”
