This Skill simplifies the management of gRPC and protobuf in CritterCab, streamlining tasks like formatting, linting, and breaking-change detection.
buf lint and buf breaking to validate the changes.Run 'buf lint' to check for style issues in your protobuf files.

Automate protobuf linting and breaking-change detection in a CI pipeline by running buf lint and buf breaking against your protobuf files. This validates style consistency and prevents incompatible API changes from merging into your gRPC services.
Test gRPC endpoints without dedicated client code by using grpcurl to execute calls directly from the command line. This approach is ideal for running smoke tests, debugging service behavior, and verifying endpoint availability during CI checks.
Evans helps explore gRPC services by providing an interactive REPL environment. You can dynamically inspect service definitions and compose complex requests on the fly, making it easier to test and understand gRPC APIs without building static client scripts.
Yes, you need buf and grpcurl installed to manage gRPC configurations. Buf handles protobuf file formatting, linting, and breaking-change detection, while grpcurl is required to interact directly with and execute calls against live gRPC endpoints.
Check for style issues in your protobuf files by running the buf lint command. This validates your definitions against configured style rules to ensure consistency across protobuf and gRPC services before changes are committed to version control.
Yes, you can use buf to manage code generation and formatting for protobuf files. Buf streamlines proto governance by automating these tasks, ensuring that generated code remains consistent and formatted correctly across your development and CI pipelines.
