SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Establishes comprehensive API design patterns, versioning, error handling, authentication, and OpenAPI/AsyncAPI templates to ensure consistency across REST, GraphQL, and gRPC services.

Core Features & Use Cases

API Design Principles: UX-first API design, backward compatibility, and performance.
REST/GraphQL/GRPC Templates: OpenAPI, AsyncAPI templates and conventions.
Versioning & Errors: Version strategy and standardized error handling.
Use Case: Start a new service with well-documented REST endpoints and a shared OpenAPI spec.

Quick Start

Ask for an OpenAPI skeleton for a new resource: GET /users with a 200 response and JSON body.

FAQPage Schema

How do I design a REST API with consistent versioning and error handling?▼

REST API design requires versioning strategies, standardized error handling conventions, and backward compatibility patterns. This Skill provides templates and enforced conventions for consistent REST endpoints, version management, and error responses across services.

What's the best way to document APIs with OpenAPI specifications?▼

OpenAPI specifications standardize API documentation and enable code generation. This Skill provides OpenAPI templates and conventions to create well-documented REST interfaces with consistent schema definitions and endpoint descriptions.

Can I use this for GraphQL and gRPC APIs, or just REST?▼

This Skill covers REST, GraphQL, and gRPC API design. It provides templates, conventions, and authentication approaches for all three protocols, ensuring consistency across different API types within your backend services.

How do I ensure backward compatibility when versioning APIs?▼

Backward compatibility requires deliberate versioning strategies and design patterns. This Skill enforces versioning approaches and conventions that prevent breaking changes, allowing clients to upgrade on their own timeline.

What authentication mechanisms should I use across multiple APIs?▼

Authentication mechanisms vary by protocol and security requirements. This Skill provides standardized authentication approaches and templates for REST, GraphQL, and gRPC to enforce consistent security patterns across services.

Do I need AsyncAPI templates for event-driven APIs?▼

AsyncAPI templates document asynchronous and event-driven APIs similar to how OpenAPI documents synchronous REST. This Skill includes AsyncAPI templates for consistent documentation of message-based interfaces alongside REST and gRPC services.
