Is this skill restricted to specific programming languages?

No, the patterns focus on methodology and decision-making. It has been empirically validated with 82.5% transferability across various languages like Go, Python, and TypeScript.

What is the 5-tier parameter system?

It is a deterministic decision tree that categorizes parameters into five tiers: Required, Filtering, Range, Output Control, and Standard, ensuring consistent API behavior across endpoints.

What kind of efficiency gains can I expect?

The audit-first approach has demonstrated up to a 37.5% reduction in unnecessary refactoring work by identifying already-compliant targets before execution.

Can this skill help with existing, live APIs?

Yes, it includes patterns like 'Audit-First Refactoring' and 'Safe JSON Property Refactoring' specifically designed to improve consistency while maintaining backward compatibility.

API 개발

Implements a systematic, pattern-based approach to designing, refactoring, and documenting robust APIs with automated quality enforcement.

소개

The API Design skill provides a deterministic framework for building high-quality APIs by leveraging six validated patterns, including a 5-tier parameter system and audit-first refactoring. It helps developers move beyond ad-hoc design to a formal methodology that ensures high pattern transferability across different domains and languages. Whether you are building new RESTful services or standardizing legacy endpoints, this skill offers the decision trees, validation architectures, and quality gates necessary to maintain consistency and backward compatibility while improving developer efficiency by up to 37.5%.
