  • Requires absolute file path on disk; no remote streaming.
  • Token must be managed manually during chunked upload.
When to use it

Use this skill to upload input data for a NovaDB CMS job, especially large files that benefit from chunked uploads.

When not to use it

Do not use for general file storage or when uploading files from remote URLs.

How this analysis is made

Examples

Upload small input file
Upload the file /data/input.csv as input to a new job.
Upload large file with chunks
I need to upload a large file /data/large_input.csv for a job. The file is 500MB, so use chunked upload. Start the upload.
Cancel an upload
Cancel the upload with token 'abc123'.

Job Input Upload

Upload input file for a job with chunked upload support.

Scope

This skill ONLY handles: Uploading input files for jobs, with support for chunked uploads.

For creating the job after upload → use create-job For general file uploads (not job input) → use upload-file

Tools

  1. novadb_cms_job_input_upload — Start the upload (first chunk)
  2. novadb_cms_job_input_continue — Continue with subsequent chunks
  3. novadb_cms_job_input_cancel — Cancel an in-progress upload

Parameters

Start upload

{
  "sourcePath": "/absolute/path/to/input.csv"
}
  • sourcePath — Absolute path to the file on disk (required)
  • filename — Override filename (optional, defaults to basename of sourcePath)

Continue upload

{
  "token": "upload-token-from-previous-call",
  "sourcePath": "/absolute/path/to/next-chunk"
}

Cancel upload

{
  "token": "upload-token-to-cancel"
}

Workflow

Single-chunk upload

  1. Call novadb_cms_job_input_upload with the file path
  2. Response returns { token, name } — use these as the inputFile parameter when creating a job

Chunked upload (large files)

  1. Call novadb_cms_job_input_upload with the first chunk — response returns { token }
  2. For each subsequent chunk, call novadb_cms_job_input_continue with the token and next chunk path
  3. Use the final { token, name } as the inputFile parameter when creating a job

Cancel

Call novadb_cms_job_input_cancel with the token to abort an in-progress upload.

Response

  • Upload/Continue — Returns { token, name } for use with novadb_cms_create_job's inputFile parameter
  • Cancel — Returns confirmation of cancellation

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/download' --output '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

Tools declared by the author (check availability in your agent): novadb_cms_job_input_upload, novadb_cms_job_input_continue, novadb_cms_job_input_cancel

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

test -f '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/job-input-upload' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy' '.claude/skills/job-input-upload'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation
openskills install './.skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy'

openskills read 'job-input-upload-mma3jrqy'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/job-input-upload-mma3jrqy/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
