Sap Btp Job Scheduling

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Tasks that involve Scheduled and recurring tasks
• Tasks that involve Async programming
• Tasks that involve REST APIs

Example prompts

• “/sap-btp-job-scheduling”

Requirements

• Node.js

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Return 202 Accepted immediately - Don't block the request
2. 2Store request headers - x-sap-job-id, x-sap-job-schedule-id, x-sap-job-run-id, x-sap-scheduler-host
3. 3Update run log on completion - Single API call with final status
4. 4Handle timeouts - Default 30 min, configurable up to 7 days

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 652a861. 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:

  • curl
  • npm

  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):

  • help.sap.com
  • developers.sap.com
  • sap-ai-skills.com

  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

Sap Btp Job Scheduling loads about 3.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~27k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 200 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,028 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~200

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~3.6k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~27k

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

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.
