What it does

Add Channel Connect Button is an agent skill from novuhq/novu. Build a new channel Connect button (e.g. WhatsApp, Discord, LINE) in @novu/js and @novu/react following the existing SlackConnectButton, MsTeamsConnectButton, and TelegramConnectButton pattern. Use when adding connect/disconnect UI for a new chat channel/provider to the SDK — covering the SolidJS core component, the React wrapper, the channelConnections (OAuth) vs channelEndpoints (deep-link) data layer, the component registry, and package exports.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `reference.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with React, Discord, WhatsApp and Slack. The repository describes itself as: The open-source communication infrastructure for agents and products.

When your agent uses it

  • Adding connect/disconnect UI for a new chat channel/provider to the SDK — covering the SolidJS core component
  • The React wrapper
  • The channelConnections (OAuth) vs channelEndpoints (deep-link) data layer
  • The component registry

Example prompts

  • “/add-channel-connect-button”

Workflow steps

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

  1. pnpm build (required after changing packages/).
  2. Type-check + lint the touched files.
  3. Manual test: add a page/tab in playground/nextjs (copy src/components/telegram-end-user-connect.tsx) that wraps ConnectButton in , then…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c4d3eda. 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:

    • pnpm

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm, 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Add Channel Connect Button loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 120 tokens; SKILL.md has 557 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~120
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 557 words (~1,642 tokens).

“Build ConnectButton for a new chat provider, mirroring Slack, MsTeams, and Telegram. The button lets a subscriber connect (open OAuth popup / deep link) and disconnect a channel, with loading + connected states.”
