What the skill teaches
Xero's own agent skill for its xero command-line tool, kept in the xero-command-line repository in Xero's GitHub organisation. It teaches the agent to read and change data in the user's Xero organisation through CLI commands: contacts, invoices, quotes, credit notes, payments, bank transactions, items, manual journals, tracking categories, currencies, tax rates, reports, organisation details and attachments. The CLI signs in through the browser with OAuth PKCE and named profiles, or takes access token, refresh token and tenant ID from environment variables when no browser is available; the skill tells the agent to ask the user to run the login step. The CLI is installed from npm and is marked alpha.
