api-development
Meta-skill that orchestrates the full API development lifecycle — from design through documentation — by coordinating specialized skills, agents, and commands into a seamless build workflow.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill api-development-wpank-ai --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# API Development Orchestrate the full API development lifecycle by coordinating design, implementation, testing, and documentation into a single workflow. ## When to Use This Skill - Building a new API from scratch - Adding endpoints to an existing API - Redesigning or refactoring an API - Planning API versioning and migration - Running a complete API development cycle (design → build → test → document → deploy) ## Installation ### OpenClaw / Moltbot / Clawbot ```bash npx clawhub@latest install api-development ``` --- ## Orchestration Flow Follow these steps in order. Each step routes to the appropriate skill or tool. ### 1. Design the API Load the `api-design` skill to establish resource models, URL structure, HTTP method semantics, error formats, and pagination strategy. **Deliverables:** Resource list, endpoint map, request/response schemas, error format ### 2. Generate OpenAPI Spec Produce a machine-readable OpenAPI 3.x specification from the design. Use the OpenAPI template in `api-design/assets/openapi-template.yaml` as a starting point. **Deliverables:** `openapi.yaml` with all endpoints, schemas, auth schemes, and examples ### 3. Scaffold Endpoints Generate route files, re

What does the api-development skill do?
Meta-skill that orchestrates the full API development lifecycle — from design through documentation — by coordinating specialized skills, agents, and commands into a seamless build workflow.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill api-development-wpank-ai --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
