How do I automate GitHub Issue creation for requesting new API endpoints?

To request new API endpoints via GitHub Issues, this Skill uses shell scripting to orchestrate the gh CLI, automatically generating structured issues with all necessary backend development specifications. It eliminates manual issue drafting for backend API requests.

How do I generate mock data for frontend development before an API is implemented?

To generate mock data for frontend development before backend implementation, this Skill creates placeholder data matching the expected endpoint response structure. It enables frontend developers to build and test UI components against realistic data without waiting for backend API availability.

Do I need the gh CLI installed to create GitHub Issues for backend API requests?

Yes, the gh CLI is required to create GitHub Issues for backend API requests, as this Skill relies on it for issue creation within software development workflows. Shell scripting orchestrates the process and invokes the CLI to submit the new endpoint specifications.

What is the best way to request a new GET API endpoint for fetching user data?

The best way to request a new GET API endpoint for fetching user data is to automate generating a detailed GitHub Issue for the backend team while simultaneously producing mock user data. This ensures backend specifications are clearly documented and frontend development can proceed immediately.

Can I use shell scripting to orchestrate both mock data generation and GitHub Issue creation?

Yes, shell scripting orchestrates both mock data generation and GitHub Issue creation for new API endpoints. This Skill leverages shell scripts to coordinate the process, producing mock data for frontend use while creating structured issues via the gh CLI for backend development.
