What pagination methods are supported?

The skill provides implementation guidance for both simple offset-based pagination and advanced Relay-compliant cursor connections for large datasets.

Can I use this for GraphQL Federation?

Yes, the skill includes specific patterns for designing entities and extended types compatible with Apollo Federation and schema stitching.

How does it handle API versioning?

It emphasizes additive changes and the strategic use of the @deprecated directive to evolve APIs continuously without breaking existing client integrations.

Does this skill help with N+1 query problems?

While primarily focused on schema design, it provides architectural patterns that help avoid inherent N+1 structures by encouraging flat schemas and efficient relationship modeling.
