What problem does it solve?

Designing APIs that are inconsistent and hard to maintain wastes time and risks breaking integrations. This skill provides a structured checklist and guidance to align API design with RESTful conventions, improving clarity and interoperability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces endpoint naming conventions, resource orientation, and correct pluralization.
  • Validates HTTP methods mapping to CRUD operations and correct use of actions.
  • Audits status codes, request/response schemas, and error handling to ensure consistent contracts.
  • Use Case: Review a new user service to verify that endpoints follow /api/v1/users and /api/v1/users/:id patterns and that GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE semantics are correct.

Quick Start

Run an API design review against the target surface to verify naming, methods, and responses.
