Does this skill support the latest Express 5 features?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for Express 5, including auto-forwarding of rejected promises in async handlers and updated path-to-regexp syntax for route parameters.

Why does the skill insist on 4 arguments for error handlers?

Express identifies error-handling middleware specifically by the number of arguments (arity). A function with 3 arguments is treated as regular middleware, causing errors to be ignored or mismanaged.

How does it handle middleware ordering?

It follows a strict production sequence: Security (Helmet), CORS, Rate Limiting, Body Parsing, Logging, Route Handlers, and finally Error Handling to ensure maximum security and reliability.

Can this skill help with TypeScript integration in Express?

Yes, it provides patterns for typed Request/Response objects, custom interface extensions for authenticated requests, and named exports to ensure type safety across the API.

API 开发

Builds robust, modular REST APIs using Express.js middleware patterns, centralized error handling, and production-grade routing.

This skill equips Claude with specialized knowledge for architecting production-ready Express.js applications. It focuses on the 'middleware-first' philosophy, ensuring correct implementation of modular routing via express.Router(), strict middleware ordering (security first, error handlers last), and mandatory 4-argument error handling signatures. It provides a clear migration path between Express 4 and Express 5, covering critical differences in async error forwarding, body parsing, and route parameter syntax while enforcing project-specific coding conventions.
