API Design Reviewer
Reviews and audits API architectures, endpoint contracts, and schemas against industry best practices and standards.
API Design Reviewer provides automated, in-depth evaluation of REST, GraphQL, and gRPC interface specifications to ensure consistency, scalability, and adherence to modern architectural standards. It inspects endpoint naming conventions, HTTP method usage, payload schemas, error handling, status code semantics, authentication mechanisms, and versioning strategies. Whether designing greenfield services or refactoring legacy endpoints, this skill helps engineering teams catch breaking changes, security gaps, and design anti-patterns before APIs reach production.
