Design Consistent APIs Across Protocols
Inconsistent API contracts create integration errors and expensive migrations. This skill applies reusable REST, GraphQL, gRPC, OpenAPI, and AsyncAPI patterns to create clear contracts.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "api-design-framework" from https://skillstore.io/skills/ariegoldkin-api-design-framework.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/ariegoldkin-api-design-framework/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 "api-design-framework". Design a paginated endpoint for listing active users.
Expected outcome:
- A resource-oriented endpoint using a safe retrieval method.
- Cursor pagination with a bounded page size and continuation metadata.
- Defined success, validation, authentication, and rate-limit responses.
Using "api-design-framework". Choose a protocol for low-latency internal service communication with streaming.
Expected outcome:
A recommendation for gRPC, supported by schema, streaming, performance, client, and operational considerations.
Using "api-design-framework". Review an API proposal that changes a required response field.
Expected outcome:
- A compatibility warning for existing clients.
- An additive transition plan with deprecation notice and migration milestones.
- Required specification, test, and documentation updates.
Security Audit
SafeAll 113 static findings are false positives caused by Markdown backticks, API identifiers, and illustrative URLs in documentation and templates. The files contain no executable commands, runtime network requests, system reconnaissance instructions, or prompt injection text. No semantic security issue was found.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Design a new service contract
Create consistent resources, operations, responses, errors, pagination, and authentication rules before implementation begins.
Standardize team API conventions
Establish shared REST, GraphQL, or gRPC patterns and document them with reusable specification templates.
Review an integration contract
Check an API proposal for consistency, compatibility, security coverage, usability, and documentation gaps.
Try These Prompts
Design a REST endpoint for [resource] that supports [operation]. Include the path, method, request fields, response fields, status codes, and validation errors.
Compare REST, GraphQL, and gRPC for [service]. Consider clients, latency, streaming, schema governance, caching, and operational complexity. Recommend one approach with reasons.
Review the provided API contract against the framework. Identify consistency, pagination, error handling, authentication, versioning, and documentation issues. Prioritize concrete changes.
Plan the evolution of [current API] to support [new requirement]. Preserve compatibility, define deprecations, specify migration stages, and update contract documentation.
Best Practices
- Provide requirements, client types, data volume, security constraints, and compatibility expectations.
- Review generated contracts with implementation owners, security reviewers, and API consumers.
- Validate adapted OpenAPI and AsyncAPI documents with current specification tooling.
Avoid
- Do not treat example domains, credentials, identifiers, or schemas as production values.
- Do not choose a protocol from preference alone without client and operational requirements.
- Do not introduce breaking changes without versioning, deprecation, and migration planning.
