Backend Orchestrator Skill

REST API design involves structuring endpoints following RESTful patterns with proper HTTP methods, versioning strategies, and resource hierarchies. This Skill guides you through endpoint architecture, request/response patterns, and best practices for building scalable APIs in Django, FastAPI, or Flask.

Django model design requires defining your data structure, relationships, and field types, then creating migrations to version schema changes. This Skill covers model architecture, migration strategies, indexing for performance, and database design patterns within Django ecosystems.

Authentication verifies user identity while authorization controls what authenticated users can access. This Skill provides patterns for implementing secure authentication mechanisms and role-based authorization in Django APIs, ensuring endpoints enforce proper access controls.

Backend testing uses pytest and factory_boy to create isolated, repeatable test cases covering endpoints, business logic, and database operations. This Skill structures test organization, fixtures, mocking strategies, and coverage targets for comprehensive Django and REST API validation.

Yes. Celery enables asynchronous task queuing and execution outside the request cycle. This Skill integrates Celery patterns into your backend workflow for long-running operations, scheduled tasks, and background job management within Django applications.

While the core guidance centers on Django and Python ecosystems, this Skill includes Node.js options for cross-team projects. You can apply REST API design, service layer patterns, authentication, and testing principles across Node.js frameworks when collaborating with teams using different backends.
