SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs often require boilerplate for routing, grouping, and validation; this Skill provides a structured approach to implementing Minimal APIs with route groups, endpoint filters, and TypedResults.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Route groups for organizing endpoints and shared configuration
  • Endpoint filters and FluentValidation integration for consistent validation
  • TypedResults and OpenAPI metadata for strong typing and documentation
  • OpenAPI-friendly endpoints and extension patterns across projects
  • Scalable patterns for microservices and larger applications

Quick Start

Create a new dotnet minimal API project and scaffold endpoint groups, filters, and OpenAPI metadata using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I organize ASP.NET Core Minimal API endpoints into route groups?▼

Minimal API route groups organize endpoints and share configuration like common prefixes and policies. This structured approach reduces boilerplate and enables scalable Web API patterns across microservices and larger applications.

What is the best way to add validation to .NET Minimal APIs?▼

The best way to add validation to .NET Minimal APIs is by using endpoint filters with FluentValidation integration. This ensures consistent validation across endpoints, handling errors robustly before the endpoint logic executes.

How do I return consistent status codes in ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs?▼

You can return consistent status codes in ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs by using TypedResults. This provides strong typing for HTTP responses, ensuring reliable status codes and robust error handling across all endpoints.

Does this approach support generating OpenAPI metadata for Minimal APIs?▼

Yes, this Minimal API approach supports generating OpenAPI metadata. It applies OpenAPI-friendly endpoints and extension patterns to produce strongly typed documentation and consistent status codes across projects.

Can I use custom endpoint filters with dependency injection in Minimal APIs?▼

Yes, you can use custom endpoint filters with dependency injection in Minimal APIs. This enables extensible patterns for cross-cutting concerns like validation and robust error handling within modular ASP.NET Core applications.
