Is the Tool Connector skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from ZhixiangLuo/10xProductivity. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Tool Connector SkillProof Score?

7.6/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 5/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install Tool Connector?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Tool Connector with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 7.6/10
Tested: Jul 21, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · b67acca

Fetched SKILL.md from .cursor/skills/tool-connector/ (repo has no .claude/skills/ copy); frontmatter parses with name+description, and referenced setup.md, add-new-tool.md, setup-python.md all return HTTP 200. Ran the install in a temp HOME — SKILL.md landed correctly at ~/.claude/skills/tool-connector/SKILL.md. Grepped setup.md, add-new-tool.md, SKILL.md, and playwright_sso.py for exfil/curl-pipe-sh/base64/webhook patterns and found none; add-new-tool.md explicitly warns against curl|bash and gates every write action behind user approval. Could not run OUTPUT vs baseline: the core connect-and-verify loop needs the full repo cloned, a Python/Playwright venv, and real credentials against live services (GitHub PAT, Slack SSO, etc.), none of which I could supply.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What Tool Connector does

A setup skill that connects work tools to a coding agent by cloning a recipe repo and running per-tool auth/verify flows locally, storing API tokens and browser-SSO session cookies in a private local .env rather than any cloud middleware. Ships pre-built recipes for ~15 tools (Slack, Confluence, Jira, Linear, GitHub, Datadog, Outlook, and more) plus an add-new-tool path for internal or custom systems. Triggers when the user wants to set up a tool connection, connect an internal or custom-built tool, or add a new integration from scratch.

How to install Tool Connector

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/ZhixiangLuo/10xProductivity.git /tmp/tool-connector-src
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/tool-connector-src/.cursor/skills/tool-connector ~/.claude/skills/tool-connector
# The SKILL is a thin pointer: its body reads setup.md, add-new-tool.md, setup-python.md
#   and tool_connections/ from the FULL repo clone at /tmp/tool-connector-src (keep that clone).
# To actually connect a tool you also need: python3>=3.11 + a venv (`pip install -e ".[dev]"`),
#   `playwright install chromium`, and a real API token OR browser SSO session per target tool.
# Private runtime state (tokens, verified_connections.md) lives in ~/.10xProductivity (TENX_PRIVATE_DIR).
# Repo ships skills under .cursor/skills/ (not .claude/skills/); the copy above fixes that for Claude Code.

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Commands — how to trigger Tool Connector
