Awesome-omni-skills apify-actorization-v2
Apify Actorization workflow skill. Use this skill when the user needs Actorization converts existing software into reusable serverless applications compatible with the Apify platform. Actors are programs packaged as Docker images that accept well-defined JSON input, perform an action, and optionally produce structured JSON output and the operator should preserve the upstream workflow, copied support files, and provenance before merging or handing off.

Overview
This public intake copy packages
plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/apify-actorization from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.
Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.
This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses
metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.
Apify Actorization Actorization converts existing software into reusable serverless applications compatible with the Apify platform. Actors are programs packaged as Docker images that accept well-defined JSON input, perform an action, and optionally produce structured JSON output.
Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Prerequisites, Actorization Checklist, Monetization (Optional), Pre-Deployment Checklist, Apify MCP Tools, Limitations.
When to Use This Skill
Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.
- Converting an existing project to run on Apify platform
- Adding Apify SDK integration to a project
- Wrapping a CLI tool or script as an Actor
- Migrating a Crawlee project to Apify
- Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Actorization converts existing software into reusable serverless applications compatible with the Apify platform. Actors are programs packaged as Docker images that accept well-defined JSON input, perform an action,....
- Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
Operating Table
| Situation | Start here | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| First-time use | | Confirms repository, branch, commit, and imported path before touching the copied workflow |
| Provenance review | | Gives reviewers a plain-language audit trail for the imported source |
| Workflow execution | | Starts with the smallest copied file that materially changes execution |
| Supporting context | | Adds the next most relevant copied source file without loading the entire package |
| Handoff decision | | Helps the operator switch to a stronger native skill when the task drifts |
Workflow
This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.
- Identify the language - JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or other
- Find the entry point - The main file that starts execution
- Identify inputs - Command-line arguments, environment variables, config files
- Identify outputs - Files, console output, API responses
- Check for state - Does it need to persist data between runs?
- .actor/actor.json - Actor configuration and metadata
- .actor/input_schema.json - Input definition for the Apify Console
Imported Workflow Notes
Imported: Step 1: Analyze the Project
Before making changes, understand the project:
- Identify the language - JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or other
- Find the entry point - The main file that starts execution
- Identify inputs - Command-line arguments, environment variables, config files
- Identify outputs - Files, console output, API responses
- Check for state - Does it need to persist data between runs?
Imported: Step 2: Initialize Actor Structure
Run in the project root:
apify init
This creates:
- Actor configuration and metadata.actor/actor.json
- Input definition for the Apify Console.actor/input_schema.json
(if not present) - Container image definitionDockerfile
Imported: Step 3: Apply Language-Specific Changes
Choose based on your project's language:
- JavaScript/TypeScript: See js-ts-actorization.md
- Python: See python-actorization.md
- Other Languages (CLI-based): See cli-actorization.md
Quick Reference
| Language | Install | Wrap Code |
|---|---|---|
| JS/TS | | ... |
| Python | | |
| Other | Use CLI in wrapper script | / |
Imported: Steps 4-6: Configure Schemas
See schemas-and-output.md for detailed configuration of:
- Input schema (
).actor/input_schema.json - Output schema (
).actor/output_schema.json - Actor configuration (
).actor/actor.json - State management (request queues, key-value stores)
Validate schemas against
@apify/json_schemas npm package.
Imported: Step 7: Test Locally
Run the actor with inline input (for JS/TS and Python actors):
apify run --input '{"startUrl": "https://example.com", "maxItems": 10}'
Or use an input file:
apify run --input-file ./test-input.json
Important: Always use
apify run, not npm start or python main.py. The CLI sets up the proper environment and storage.
Imported: Step 8: Deploy
apify push
This uploads and builds your actor on the Apify platform.
Imported: Prerequisites
Verify
apify CLI is installed:
apify --help
If not installed:
brew install apify-cli # Or: npm install -g apify-cli # Or install from an official release package that your OS package manager verifies
Verify CLI is logged in:
apify info # Should return your username
If not logged in, check if
APIFY_TOKEN environment variable is defined. If not, ask the user to generate one at https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations, add it to their shell or secret manager without putting the literal token in command history, then run:
apify login
Examples
Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly
Use @apify-actorization-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.
Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.
Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review
Review @apify-actorization-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.
Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.
Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution
Use @apify-actorization-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.
Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.
Example 4: Build a reviewer packet
Review @apify-actorization-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.
Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

apify run --input '{"key": "value"}' - Deploy with
apify push
Best Practices
Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.
- Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
- Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
- Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
- Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
- Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
- Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.
Troubleshooting
Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically
Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in
plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/apify-actorization, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Load only the files that materially change the answer, then restate the provenance before continuing.
Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review
Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated
SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.
Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization
Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Imported: Monetization (Optional)
After deploying, you can monetize your actor in the Apify Store. The recommended model is Pay Per Event (PPE):
- Per result/item scraped
- Per page processed
- Per API call made
Configure PPE in the Apify Console under Actor > Monetization. Charge for events in your code with
await Actor.charge('result').
Other options: Rental (monthly subscription) or Free (open source).
