What problem does it solve?
In distributed systems, inconsistent error codes and payload structures create confusion for clients and hinder debugging. This Skill provides a centralized catalog of error codes and a uniform payload schema to improve reliability, error handling, and observability across services.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Standardized error codes with consistent HTTP status mappings
- Uniform error payload schema including fields like code, message, details, and traceId
- Guidance on logging, observability, and client messaging
- Example: when a missing resource is requested, the API returns a 404 with a structured error payload that includes a traceId for correlation
Quick Start
Define a centralized API error taxonomy and apply it to all endpoints.
