Ship Skills, Not Docs: Integration, Configuration, and Testing as One Agentic Workflow

Every platform ships the same integration kit: API docs, an SDK, a manual. And every client burns weeks turning them into working code, because one developer has to hold three domains at once: the client codebase, the platform's integration patterns, and the platform's configuration. At Kinoa, we tried everything, from better documentation to sending our own engineers into client codebases. Nothing scaled.

This talk presents a different distribution model: instead of documents a human reads, ship the knowledge as skills an AI agent executes. I'll walk through a production system where agent skills drive the entire workflow, from discovering the client's architecture to generating integration code, configuring the platform through its admin API, and running verification tests. Basic integrations that used to take months now close in days.

We'll dig into the patterns that made it work: separating orchestration from raw API access, a hard security boundary between admin and runtime credentials, resumable state for long-running workflows, human-approval checkpoints, and telemetry that turns real integrations into honest metrics.

About Illia Seleznov

Illia Seleznov is the CTO at Kinoa, a LiveOps platform for mobile games. For a large part of his 15+ years in engineering he has been building SaaS platforms and designing their integration models: how a platform meets client systems, what it asks of the integrating developer, and how to keep that cost low. At Kinoa this led to dozens of integrations across very different codebases and architectures. Illia focuses on high-load architectures and real-time LiveOps systems, and on turning integration knowledge into executable skills for coding agents.
