Streak

Streak CRM

Streak is a CRM built entirely inside Gmail. Use this skill to manage pipelines, boxes (deals), contacts, organizations, tasks, and email threads via the Streak API.

Official docs: https://streak.readme.io/reference

When to Use

Use this skill when you need to:

• Manage sales pipelines and deal stages
• Track leads, contacts, and organizations
• Associate email threads with deals
• Create tasks and comments on deals
• Search across boxes, contacts, and organizations

Prerequisites

1. Install the Streak extension in Gmail
2. Navigate to Gmail > Streak icon > Integrations > Streak API > Create New Key
3. Copy your API key

Set environment variable:

export STREAK_API_KEY="your-api-key"

Important: When using $VAR in a command that pipes to another command, wrap the command containing $VAR in bash -c '...'. Due to a Claude Code bug, environment variables are silently cleared when pipes are used directly.

bash -c 'curl -s "https://api.example.com" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY"'

How to Use

Authentication

Streak uses HTTP Basic Auth with your API key as the username and no password. In curl, use -u ${STREAK_API_KEY}: (note the trailing colon).

Guidelines

1. Keys: Pipeline keys, box keys, and other identifiers are alphanumeric strings returned by the API
2. Timestamps: Use Unix timestamps in milliseconds for date fields (e.g., dueDate, meetingDate)
3. Rate Limits: Be mindful of API rate limits; add delays between bulk operations
4. Stages: To move a box to a different stage, update the box with the new stageKey
5. Email Integration: Streak is tightly integrated with Gmail; threads are Gmail thread IDs
6. Team Key: When creating contacts, you need a teamKey which can be obtained from the teams endpoint
