Xero API integration with managed OAuth. Manage contacts, invoices, payments, accounts, and run financial reports. Use this skill when users want to interact with Xero accounting data. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Access the Xero API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage contacts, invoices, payments, bank transactions, and run financial reports.

https://gateway.maton.ai/xero/{native-api-path} Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Xero API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to api.xero.com and automatically injects your OAuth token and Xero-Tenant-Id header.
All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header: Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY: export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
Sign in or create an account at maton.ai Go to maton.ai/settings Copy your API key
Manage your Xero OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

Xero-Tenant-Id header is automatically injected Dates are in YYYY-MM-DD format Multiple records can be created in a single request using arrays Use where query parameter for filtering IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets (fields[], sort[], records[]) to disable glob parsing IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping.
