Inject credentials only from the approved secret manager and validate request/response contracts at the boundary. 2. Use stable IDs, bounded retries, and redacted telemetry for sync/follow-up actions. 3. Unit-test with mocks and run one synthetic development integration check before promotion. ## Output - A test-backed SDK boundary with scoped credentials, safe errors, redacted observability, and rollback-friendly behavior. ## Examples Instantiate the client with a development secret reference, send a synthetic meeting/action event with an idempotency key, and assert the mocked CRM-sync payload. Record only opaque IDs/results; never log a recording, transcript, contact, or token. ## Python Client ```python import os, requests from dataclasses import dataclass from typing import Optional @dataclass class FathomConfig: api_key: str base_url: str = "https://api.fathom.ai/external/v1" timeout: int = 30 class FathomClient: def __init__(self, config: Optional[FathomConfig] = None): self.config = config or FathomConfig(api_key=os.environ["FATHOM_API_KEY"]) self.session = requests.Session() self.session.headers.update({"X-Api-Key": self.config.api_key}) def list_meetings(self, limit: int = 20, **filters) -> list[dict]: params = {"limit": limit, **filters} resp = self.session.get(f"{self.config.base_url}/meetings", params=params, timeout=self.config.timeout) resp.raise_for_status() return resp.json().get("meetings", []) def get_transcript(self, recording_id: str) -> dict: resp = self.session.get(f"{self.config.base_url}/recordings/{recording_id}/transcript", timeout=self.config.timeout) resp.raise_for_status() return resp.json() def get_summary(self, recording_id: str) -> dict: resp = self.session.get(f"{self.config.base_url}/recordings/{recording_id}/summary", timeout=self.config.timeout) resp.raise_for_status() return resp.json() ``` ## TypeScript Client ```typescript class FathomClient { private apiKey: string; private baseUrl: string; constructor(apiKey?: string) { this.apiKey = apiKey ?? process.env.FATHOM_API_KEY!; this.baseUrl = "https://api.fathom.ai/external/v1"; } private async get(path: string, params?: Record): Promise { const url = new URL(`${this.baseUrl}${path}`); if (params) Object.entries(params).forEach(([k, v]) => url.searchParams.set(k, v)); const resp = await fetch(url, { headers: { "X-Api-Key": this.apiKey } }); if (!resp.ok) throw new Error(`Fathom ${resp.status}: ${await resp.text()}`); return resp.json(); } async listMeetings(limit = 20) { return this.get<{meetings: any[]}>("/meetings", {limit: String(limit)}); } async getTranscript(id: string) { return this.get(`/recordings/${id}/transcript`); } async getSummary(id: string) { return this.get(`/recordings/${id}/summary`); } } ``` ## Error Handling | Status | Meaning | Action | |--------|---------|--------| | 401 | Invalid API key | Regenerate key | | 404 | Recording not found | Verify recording ID | | 429 | Rate limited (60/min) | Backoff and retry | ## Resources - [Fathom API Reference](https://developers.fathom.ai/api-reference) ## Next Steps Apply in `fathom-core-workflow-a` for meeting analytics. --- Source attribution: jeremylongshore Original project: https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills/blob/ab85a061f7bcc039dac13ee193de7a4cd4388571/plugins/saas-packs/fathom-pack/skills/fathom-sdk-patterns/SKILL.md License: MIT License information: https://opensource.org/license/mit Original upstream instructions; downloaded from Mega AI Hub. ## Upstream license notice MIT License Copyright (c) 2025 Jeremy Longshore Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
