Does this skill support the latest Apollo Client features?

Yes, it includes patterns for Apollo Client v3.9+ Suspense hooks (useSuspenseQuery, useBackgroundQuery) and provides notes for v4 migration.

Why is cache normalization emphasized?

Normalization ensures that data is stored once by type and ID. When an object is updated anywhere in the app, Apollo automatically updates every component that references that object.

Can I use this skill for REST APIs?

This specific skill is optimized for GraphQL APIs using Apollo Client. For REST APIs, you should use a dedicated REST data-fetching skill.

Do I need to write manual TypeScript types for my GraphQL queries?

No, this skill strictly mandates the use of GraphQL Codegen to automatically generate TypeScript types from your schema and operations, ensuring 100% type safety.

How does the skill handle cache updates after a mutation?

It provides patterns for three strategies: Optimistic Responses for instant UI updates, 'cache.modify' for manual cache surgical updates, and 'refetchQueries' for simpler use cases.
