Key capabilities

  • →Set up GitHub Actions for Instantly API v2
  • →Test against the Instantly mock server
  • →Validate API key scopes
  • →Deploy webhook receivers
  • →Implement pre-commit hooks

How it works

This skill configures GitHub Actions to run unit tests against an Instantly mock server and integration tests against the live API, ensuring that CI runs do not send real emails or consume production API limits.

About this skill

Instantly API Contract CI

Overview

Build a CI lane that catches request, scope, pagination, and response-shape drift before deployment. Record assumptions, evidence, approval state, and rollback ownership so another operator can reproduce the result.

Prerequisites

  • The target repository, Instantly workspace, environment, and accountable owner
  • Current security, privacy, compliance, capacity, and change-control requirements
  • An approved API v2 key only when a bounded live verification is necessary

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, configuration, and evidence. Use WebFetch only for current first-party Instantly documentation and package metadata. Use Write or Edit only when implementation was requested and exact target files are known; never write credentials, lead data, email content, or unrestricted environment output.

Current Contract

  • API keys are bearer tokens with endpoint-specific scopes.
  • Default workspace limits are 100 requests per second and 6,000 per minute; endpoint overrides still apply.
  • Live CI probes must use a non-production workspace and read-only scopes.

Authentication

Use an API v2 key as Authorization: Bearer <key> against https://api.instantly.ai/api/v2. Grant only the endpoint-specific scopes needed, inject the key from an approved server-side secret manager, and never print, persist, commit, or place it in a URL. Treat key creation, rotation, revocation, member changes, workspace delegation, and production access as owner-approved actions.

Instructions

  1. Inventory every Instantly call and map it to an API v2 operation and required scope.
  2. Validate request fixtures offline against pinned OpenAPI-derived types.
  3. Test 401, 403, 429, pagination, timeout, and redaction behavior.
  4. Permit one bounded staging list request only when CI secrets and owner approval exist.
  5. Fail on schema drift, secret output, unbounded pagination, or mutation attempts.
  6. Publish the tested SDK/CLI version, fixtures, and rollback owner.

Approval Boundaries

Do not create, rotate, reveal, or revoke keys; invite or remove members; delegate across workspaces; connect sending accounts; create or activate campaigns; import or delete leads; change suppression or retention; register, patch, resume, or delete webhooks; alter plans or paid capacity; transmit diagnostics; or perform another production mutation without explicit approval from the accountable owner. Keep diagnosis read-only unless implementation was requested.

Output

Return the workspace-safe scope, files and contracts inspected, exact API v2 routes and required scopes, evidence collected, validation result, sensitive fields redacted, remaining risk, accountable owner, approval state, and rollback or next action.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
401Stop and verify that the bearer key exists, is current, and was not revoked.
403Stop and compare the operation with its exact required scope; do not broaden to all:all by default.
429Coordinate the workspace-wide budget, honor endpoint overrides, and bound retries.
Schema or tenant mismatchFail closed, preserve redacted evidence, and do not retry a mutation.

Examples

Use a compact handoff that makes scope, mutation authority, and evidence reviewable.

Input:

mode=offline; surfaces=campaigns,accounts; mutation=forbidden

Expected handoff:

contracts=pass; live-smoke=skipped; secrets=redacted

Resources

When not to use it

  • →When real emails should be sent during CI runs
  • →When production API limits should be consumed during CI

Prerequisites

GitHub repository with Instantly integration codeINSTANTLY_API_KEY secret in GitHub repo settingsNode.js 18+ or Python 3.10+ in the project

Limitations

  • →CI runs use a mock server to avoid sending real emails
  • →Integration tests are read-only for the live API
  • →Rate limiting can occur if too many parallel runs access the live API

How it compares

This workflow uses a mock server for CI runs to prevent unintended actions and limit consumption, unlike directly testing against the live Instantly API for every commit.
