Build FastAPI APIs with Reusable Patterns
FastAPI projects need consistent choices for validation, dependencies, middleware, and background work. This skill gives Claude, Codex, and Claude Code reusable patterns for practical Python API development.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "python-fastapi-patterns" from https://skillstore.io/skills/0xdarkmatter-python-fastapi-patterns.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/0xdarkmatter-python-fastapi-patterns/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "python-fastapi-patterns". Create a FastAPI user creation endpoint with validation.
Expected outcome:
A structured endpoint design with create and response models, email validation, success status, and a database creation placeholder.
Using "python-fastapi-patterns". Add middleware for a frontend application and request tracing.
Expected outcome:
A middleware plan with explicit frontend origins, request ID propagation, response headers, and structured logging fields.
Using "python-fastapi-patterns". Explain how to run long processing jobs from an API.
Expected outcome:
A background processing outline that queues work, returns a task identifier, and exposes a status endpoint.
Security Audit
SafeStatic alerts were reviewed as FastAPI documentation, runnable templates, or a scaffold helper. No evidence found of prompt injection, credential exfiltration, hidden network calls, destructive commands, or unauthorized environment access. The examples still need production hardening before users copy them into live services.
Risk Factors
๐ Network access (6)

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Create a new API service
Start a FastAPI project with clear routing, settings, validation, and lifecycle patterns.
Standardize service conventions
Use shared examples for middleware, request IDs, CORS, security headers, and operational behavior.
Study FastAPI architecture
Learn how dependencies, Pydantic models, routers, and background tasks fit together.
Try These Prompts
Create a small FastAPI service with a health endpoint, Pydantic response model, and lifespan hooks.
Design request and response models for a user resource with email validation and safe response fields.
Add dependency injection for settings, an async database session, current user lookup, and admin access.
Create middleware for CORS, request IDs, structured logging, security headers, errors, and rate limits.
Best Practices
- Keep request models, response models, and database models separate when data exposure matters.
- Use dependency injection for shared settings, database sessions, caches, and authenticated users.
- Replace all placeholder URLs, secrets, CORS origins, and debug settings before deployment.
Avoid
- Do not copy wildcard CORS settings into production services without review.
- Do not hardcode real database passwords, API keys, or shared secrets in source files.
- Do not expose raw exception details or tracebacks in public API responses.
