Does this work with specific frameworks?

While the design patterns are universal to REST, the provided implementation examples and utility classes are specifically optimized for Express.js and TypeScript.

Can it help with error consistency?

Yes, it defines a standard error response format that includes HTTP status codes, internal error codes, and specific field-level validation details for debugging.

How does this skill handle API versioning?

It provides implementation patterns for multiple strategies including URL path versioning (the recommended approach), header-based versioning, and query parameter versioning.

What kind of pagination does it support?

The skill includes patterns for offset-based pagination, providing metadata such as total counts, page numbers, and 'hasMore' flags for front-end navigation.
