Does this skill provide guidance on token security?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for multi-tenant token isolation and encrypted database storage for OAuth2 access and refresh tokens.

What is the API Integration Patterns skill for Claude Code?

It is a specialized skill that provides Claude with best practices and code implementations for handling complex API tasks like OAuth2, rate limiting, and webhooks.

Which specific APIs does this skill help integrate?

While it provides general patterns, it is optimized for services like QuickBooks, MyCarrierPackets, and Slack within the laneweaverTMS ecosystem.

How does it handle API errors and downtime?

The skill implements exponential backoff with jitter and circuit breaker patterns to ensure your application remains stable even when external APIs fail.

When should I use webhooks versus polling with this skill?

The skill includes a decision matrix and a recommended hybrid approach, using webhooks for real-time updates and polling as a safety net for reliability.

API Development

Standardizes external API integrations using unified patterns for OAuth2, exponential backoff, and robust data synchronization.

About

The API Integration Patterns skill provides a comprehensive framework for building resilient, secure, and scalable connections between laneweaverTMS and external services like QuickBooks, Slack, and MyCarrierPackets. It addresses critical integration challenges including proactive OAuth2 token lifecycle management, sophisticated retry strategies with jitter, and the 'hybrid' approach to webhook and polling synchronization. By implementing these battle-tested patterns, developers can ensure multi-tenant isolation, prevent cascading failures with circuit breakers, and handle complex rate-limiting scenarios across any third-party API.

Key Features

Proactive OAuth2 token refresh and secure encrypted storage patterns
Advanced rate limit handling for dynamic headers and token bucket strategies
Exponential backoff implementation with randomized jitter for API resilience
1 GitHub stars
Hybrid synchronization logic combining real-time webhooks with polling backups
Circuit breaker patterns to prevent cascading failures in external dependencies

Use Cases

Building high-reliability data sync engines that survive network volatility
Implementing secure OAuth2 authentication for QuickBooks or Slack integrations
Standardizing multi-tenant API token isolation and security within a TMS
