Why does this skill prohibit the use of MockMvc?

This skill prioritizes TestRestTemplate to ensure integration tests run against a real server environment, providing more reliable validation of the API's network behavior compared to MockMvc.

Does this skill help with error handling?

Yes, it mandates the implementation of a GlobalExceptionHandler and the use of ErrorCode Enums instead of raw strings for consistent error responses.

How do I trigger the REST API expert functionality?

The skill automatically activates on triggers like 'controller', 'api', or 'dto', and can be manually invoked using the /kb-rest-api command.

Can I return domain entities directly to the client?

No, this skill strictly enforces the use of dedicated Request/Response DTOs and Mappers to prevent domain model exposure and ensure API stability.

API 开发

Enforces strict RESTful API design principles, DTO patterns, and robust integration testing using TestRestTemplate.

关于

The REST API Expert skill transforms Claude into a specialized backend architect focused on high-quality Java Spring Boot development. It enforces a zero-tolerance policy for common architectural smells by mandating the separation of DTOs from domain entities, requiring @Valid-based input validation, and standardizing global exception handling. Unlike standard tools, it specifically promotes TestRestTemplate for realistic integration testing over MockMvc, ensuring that your API layer is production-ready, well-documented, and decoupled from business logic.
