Use when a val talks to an external service — Slack, Discord, Telegram, Stripe, GitHub, Gmail, Google Sheets, Postgres/Supabase/Upstash/Neon, browser automation (Playwright, Browserbase, Kernel, Steel), web scraping, PDF generation, push notifications, RSS, or any other third-party API. Covers the required workflow (fetch the Val Town guide, get credentials, test, store secrets) and the catalog of available guides.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/val-town/plugins /tmp/plugins && ln -s /tmp/plugins/plugin/skills/third-party-integrations ~/.claude/skills/third-party-integrations
```

## From README

Third-Party Integrations When a val uses any external service, follow this order — do not skip steps and do not write integration code from training-data memory alone. Val Town's guides have platform-specific patterns and required workarounds that won't be in your training data. Workflow Fetch the Val Town guide first. Guides live under https://docs.val.town/guides/, but the slug isn't always just the service name — some are grouped under a category (e.g. databases/neon-postgres/, browser-automation/kernel/) or live on a sub-page (slack/agent/). Don't guess the URL: fetch the docs sitemap at https://docs.val.town/sitemap-0.xml (it lists every docs URL), find the guides/… entry that matches the service, and fetch that page before writing any integration code. Help the user get credentials. Provide direct links to create API keys or step-by-step OAuth instructions. Don't make the user hunt.
