GL importer

ReviewAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This instruction-only skill appears aligned with importing accounting spreadsheets through Synder, but it handles sensitive financial files and can make live changes to QuickBooks Online or Xero.

Use this skill only when you intend to import accounting data through Synder. Start with dryRun=true, inspect the proposed mapping, confirm the target company and entity, and only then approve a live import. Treat the API token and uploaded spreadsheets as sensitive financial data.

What this means

Anyone using the token through the agent may be able to act on connected Synder/QBO/Xero companies within that token's scope.

Why it was flagged

The skill requires a bearer token for an account connected to accounting providers, which is expected for this integration but grants meaningful delegated authority.

Skill content
apiKeys:
    - name: IMPORTER_API_TOKEN
      description: Bearer token for the Synder Importer API.
Recommendation

Use a dedicated or least-privilege Synder token if available, test with a sandbox company first, and revoke the token when no longer needed.

What this means

A mistaken live import could create incorrect invoices, bills, journal entries, customers, vendors, or other accounting records.

Why it was flagged

The documented workflow includes a live import action that can write accounting data. This is purpose-aligned and disclosed, but high-impact if used with the wrong file, company, entity, or mapping.

Skill content
`dryRun=false`: Maps AND imports in one call.
Recommendation

Always run dryRun=true first, review the proposed mapping and target company/entity, and require explicit user approval before any live import.

What this means

Financial spreadsheets and import metadata leave the local environment and are processed by Synder and the connected accounting provider.

Why it was flagged

The skill discloses that sensitive accounting files are sent to a third-party service and then to QBO/Xero. This is expected for the stated purpose, but users should notice the data boundary.

Skill content
CSV/XLSX files containing accounting data ... are uploaded to importer.synder.com and forwarded to your connected accounting provider
Recommendation

Upload only intended files, avoid unnecessary sensitive columns, confirm your organization approves Synder for this data, and review retention/account-history settings.
