This Skill provides guidelines for designing RESTful and GraphQL APIs, including versioning, consistent responses, observability, logging, and rate limiting.
Design a REST endpoint: GET /api/v1/users to list users with pagination and proper status codes.

REST API design requires clear versioning strategies, proper resource naming, and correct HTTP methods and status codes. This Skill provides comprehensive guidelines for RESTful conventions, versioning approaches to maintain backward compatibility, and consistent response formatting across endpoints to ensure APIs scale reliably.
REST uses HTTP methods on resource endpoints; GraphQL uses a single endpoint with flexible query syntax. This Skill covers both approaches, helping you understand RESTful conventions for traditional APIs and GraphQL design patterns, so you can choose based on your client needs and data structure.
API observability combines structured logging, metrics, and traces to monitor runtime behavior. This Skill guides you through implementing structured logging and observability practices, enabling you to track API performance, diagnose issues, and maintain visibility across distributed systems.
Consistent error handling ensures clients can parse failures predictably. This Skill provides guidelines for standardized error responses, proper HTTP status codes, and SOLID principles applied to API design, so all endpoints behave predictably across your service.
Rate limiting protects APIs from overload; versioning maintains backward compatibility as you evolve. This Skill covers versioning compartments and rate limiting strategies to help you scale APIs safely while supporting multiple client versions.
Yes. This Skill applies to microservices implementation, covering RESTful and GraphQL design patterns, versioning, observability, and consistent responses—all essential for coordinating independent services and managing API contracts across distributed teams.
