derive-client SKILL.md skillA
derive-client from fcakyon/claude-codex-settings is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add fcakyon/claude-codex-settings/derive-client@git:20261001.f7836daPins git:20261001.f7836da in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Reverse-engineer a website's internal API by recording browser traffic into a HAR file, then generate a standalone client or CLI that calls the endpoints directly, with no browser needed after the first recording. Use when asked to "derive a client", "build a CLI for <site>", "reverse engineer this site's API", "record network requests", "turn this site into an API", or when the same site will be automated repeatedly and direct HTTP calls would beat driving the browser every time.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Derive an API client from a recorded session Driving a browser is the right tool for the first visit and the wrong tool for the hundredth. This skill records a site's network traffic once while you use it, then turns the captured requests into a standalone client (script, CLI, or library) that talks to the site's internal API directly. The recording alone contains everything needed: agent-browser embeds text response bodies (JSON/HTML/JS) in the HAR by default, so endpoint shapes can be studied offline after the browser is closed. ## Workflow ``` 1. Record Start HAR capture, drive the flows you want in the client 2. Identify Find the real API endpoints among the noise 3. Extract Pull request shapes, response schemas, and auth material 4. Generate Write the client, one function per flow 5. Verify Call every endpoint for real before declaring done ``` ## 1. Record ```bash agent-browser network har start # embeds text response bodies by default # ... drive the site: search, open a detail page, paginate, etc. ... agent-browser network har stop /tmp/site.har ``` …

How to install
mdr add fcakyon/claude-codex-settings/derive-client@sha256:f8ef4e450c9b54b9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.f7836da, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
