Does it support runtime validation?

Yes, it promotes a validation strategy using Zod schemas to parse API responses, ensuring that the data received at runtime matches your TypeScript definitions.

Can I use local OpenAPI files instead of a URL?

Yes, the skill supports both remote URLs and local JSON/YAML file paths for the OpenAPI specification through the MCP server configuration.

How does it handle API security?

It includes standardized implementation patterns for Axios interceptors to handle Bearer tokens, protected routes, and automatic 401 refresh token logic.

How does this skill use Apidog?

It uses the apidog-mcp-server to expose your Apidog or OpenAPI specification directly to the AI agent, allowing it to read and understand your API contract in real-time.

Do I need to use TanStack Query?

While this skill provides specific patterns for TanStack Query, the type generation and HTTP client setup can be adapted for other state management libraries or fetch-based implementations.

API Development

Streamlines the integration of OpenAPI specifications into React applications using Apidog and Model Context Protocol (MCP).

About

This skill enables Claude to serve as a bridge between backend API specifications and frontend implementation. By utilizing the Apidog MCP server, it allows the AI agent to read the latest OpenAPI 3.0/3.1 specs as a single source of truth. It automates the generation of TypeScript types, configures Axios clients with authentication interceptors, and builds robust TanStack Query hooks for data fetching and mutations. It is ideal for developers looking to maintain strict type safety and synchronization between their frontend code and backend contracts while reducing boilerplate.
