SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Integrating a third-party API requires knowing which SDKs exist, how to authenticate, and which endpoints to call. This Skill replaces guesswork with a structured workflow that queries the context-matic MCP server for accurate, up-to-date API and SDK information instead of relying on the model's own knowledge.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • API Discovery: Uses the fetch_api tool to find available API SDKs by name or key, returning the matching API or a full catalog.
  • Integration Guidance: Uses ask for authentication, usage, and rate-limit questions, plus model_search and endpoint_search for SDK model and endpoint definitions.
  • Project Setup Enforcement: Detects the project's primary language and ensures language-specific conventions, security guidelines, and test guidelines exist before integration.
  • Milestone Tracking: Records integration progress (SDK setup, auth configured, first call, errors) via update_activity.
  • Use Case: A developer asks to add PayPal payments to a TypeScript project. The Skill detects the language, verifies guidelines exist, discovers the PayPal SDK key, retrieves authentication and payment-creation guidance, and tracks milestones as code is written.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to integrate the PayPal API into this project using the context-matic integration workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I integrate a third-party API with the context-matic MCP server?▼

Start by calling fetch_api with your project's language and the API name to discover the correct SDK key. Then use ask for integration guidance, and model_search or endpoint_search for specific SDK definitions as you write code.

What tools does the context-matic MCP server provide for API integration?▼

It provides fetch_api for API discovery, ask for integration guidance and code samples, model_search for SDK model definitions, endpoint_search for endpoint method details, plus add_guidelines, add_skills, and update_activity for project setup and milestone tracking.

Which programming languages does this API integration workflow support?▼

The workflow detects the project's primary language from files like package.json, requirements.txt, go.mod, pom.xml, *.csproj, Gemfile, or composer.json. Supported languages include TypeScript, Python, Go, Java, C#, Ruby, and PHP.

What happens if the requested API is not available in context-matic?▼

If fetch_api does not return the requested API, the workflow stops and informs the user that the API is not currently available in the plugin. It does not guess at SDK usage and instead asks the user how to proceed.

When should update_activity be called during API integration?▼

Call update_activity only when a milestone is concretely reached in code or infrastructure, such as sdk_setup after package installation, auth_configured after credentials are wired into code, or first_call_made after an executed API call. Never call it for searches or questions.
