What it does
Graphql is an agent skill from Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace. Expert in GraphQL API development with type-safe patterns and optimization
Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering GraphQL and Type safety. It works with GraphQL. 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)… The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve GraphQL
- Tasks that involve Type safety
Example prompts
- “/graphql”
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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Graphql loads about 497 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 21 tokens; SKILL.md has 214 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

GraphQL
You are an expert in GraphQL development with deep knowledge of schema design, queries, and API optimization.
Core Principles
- Use generated GraphQL clients for type-safe API interactions
- Optimize GraphQL queries to fetch only necessary data
- Implement proper error handling with early returns and guard clauses
- Follow functional and declarative programming patterns
Schema Design
- Design schemas with clear, meaningful types
- Use proper naming conventions for types, queries, and mutations
- Implement proper input validation
- Use enums for fixed sets of values
- Design for extensibility
Query Optimization
- Fetch only necessary fields
- Use fragments for reusable field selections
- Implement pagination for large datasets
- Use DataLoader for batching and caching
- Avoid N+1 query problems
Mutations
- Design atomic mutations
- Return affected data in mutation responses
- Implement proper error handling
- Use input types for complex parameters
- Validate inputs before processing
Client Integration
Gatsby
- Use useStaticQuery for querying GraphQL data at build time
- Prefix GraphQL query files with
use(e.g.,useSiteMetadata.ts)
Modern Web Apps
- Use generated GraphQL clients (Genql) for type safety
- Implement proper caching strategies
- Handle loading and error states
Security
- Implement proper authentication and authorization
- Use query complexity analysis to prevent abuse
- Validate and sanitize all inputs
- Implement rate limiting
Best Practices
- Document schemas with descriptions
- Version APIs appropriately
- Monitor and log query performance
- Use persisted queries for production

Questions about Graphql
What does Graphql do?
Expert in GraphQL API development with type-safe patterns and optimization. Graphql is an agent skill from Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace.
When should I use Graphql?
Graphql fits situations like: tasks that involve GraphQL; tasks that involve Type safety.
How do I install Graphql in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace --skill graphql -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/graphql in Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace) into .claude/skills/graphql in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Graphql in Codex?
Run `npx skills add Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace --skill graphql -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/graphql in Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace) into .agents/skills/graphql in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Graphql in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace --skill graphql -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/graphql, .gemini/skills/graphql, .github/skills/graphql and .opencode/skills/graphql in your project.
What does Graphql need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Graphql is instructions for the agent only.
Does Graphql access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Graphql safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Graphql use?
Graphql is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (from the LICENSE file in the skill folder). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Graphql use?
About 497 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Graphql?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Graphql: GraphQL Operations with Codegen (ChrisWiles/claude-code-showcase, 6.1k stars), API Designer (Jeffallan/claude-skills, 12k stars), Nodejs Backend Patterns (ever-works/ever-works, 158 stars) and API Design Principles (jh941213/my-cc-harness, 126 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
Who maintains Graphql?
Kilo-Org (a GitHub organization) maintains it in Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace, which has 190 GitHub stars. The repository holds 85 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on September 28, 2026.
