Does this skill support Pact?

Yes, it leverages Pact for consumer-driven contract testing (CDCT) to ensure that API providers meet the specific expectations of their consumers.

Can it generate tests automatically?

Yes, it can analyze API usage and specifications to generate Pact consumer contracts and corresponding provider verification tests.

How does it help prevent breaking changes?

By comparing API responses and schemas against defined contracts and performing backward compatibility checks before deployment.

Which API formats are supported?

The skill primarily focuses on RESTful APIs, utilizing OpenAPI (Swagger) specifications and Pact contract files for validation.

What is the API Contract Validator skill?

It is a specialized Claude Code skill for performing consumer-driven contract testing and OpenAPI specification validation to ensure API reliability.

Security & Testing

Validates API integrity and consumer compatibility using Pact and OpenAPI specifications to prevent breaking changes.

About

This skill empowers developers to maintain robust API ecosystems by implementing consumer-driven contract testing and OpenAPI validation. It automates the generation of Pact tests, verifies provider adherence to consumer expectations, and checks for backward compatibility against existing specifications. By identifying breaking changes early in the development lifecycle, it ensures seamless integration between microservices and prevents runtime failures caused by interface mismatches.
