Intent

Provide reusable, account-agnostic Dropbox helpers for Kody agents through the standard saved dropbox OAuth integration. Cover common account, metadata, search, transfer, deletion, and sharing workflows while retaining a generic escape hatch for the rest of the Dropbox API.

When To Use

• Inspect the connected Dropbox account or storage usage
• List folders, read metadata, and search for files
• Download or upload file content
• Delete files or create shared links with explicit confirmation
• Call less-common Dropbox RPC and content endpoints through a generic request helper

Required Setup

Connect a Dropbox OAuth integration named dropbox at:

https://kody.codes/connect/oauth?provider=dropbox

The integration needs the scopes required by the operations you call. Common scopes include account_info.read, files.metadata.read, files.metadata.write, files.content.read, files.content.write, sharing.read, and sharing.write.

Safety

Mutating helpers require confirm: true. Pass dryRun: true to inspect a request without sending it. The generic request helper recognizes documented read-only endpoints; all other endpoints require confirmation.

Examples

export default async function main() {
	return await listFolder({ path: '' })
}

import upload from 'kody:@kentcdodds/dropbox/upload'

Dropbox paths begin with /; use an empty string for the account root.
