SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Inconsistent interfaces and data models slow development. This Skill designs clear API contracts, robust data models, and UI/UX specifications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • API Design: Contracts for REST, GraphQL, or gRPC.
  • Data Modeling: Entities, relationships, and constraints.
  • UI/UX Design: Wireframes and user flows.
  • Context7 Integration: Access design patterns and standards.

Quick Start

@design-api "User management API" --api-type REST --output-file docs/api-spec.json

Frequently Asked Questions about designer

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design REST API contracts with endpoints and authentication specs?

API design creates formal contracts defining endpoints, methods, parameters, request/response schemas, and authentication. This Skill generates REST, GraphQL, or gRPC contracts that standardize interfaces across teams and prevent inconsistent implementations.

What's the best way to structure data models and entity relationships?

Data modeling specifies entities, relationships, and constraints to ensure consistent database and API design. This Skill produces comprehensive data model specifications that clarify how entities connect and validate across your system.

Can I create UI/UX wireframes and design system guidelines in one workflow?

UI/UX design generates wireframes, user flows, and design system artifacts including tokens and component guidelines. This Skill combines wireframing with design system creation to maintain consistency across product interfaces.

How do I leverage design patterns and standards for faster specification?

Context7 integration accesses cached design patterns and established standards to accelerate specification creation. This Skill applies proven patterns to API contracts, data models, and UI specs, reducing design time and improving consistency.

Do I need separate tools for API, data model, and UI design, or can one handle all three?

A unified design workflow covers API contracts, data models, and UI/UX specifications together. This Skill produces all three artifact types, enabling product teams to align API design, data structure, and interface design in a single process.
