Backend API
Design and implement RESTful API endpoints with proper HTTP methods, status codes, and consistent naming conventions. Use this skill when creating or modifying API routes, endpoints, or server-side request handlers. When working on files in src/pages/api/, files containing API route definitions, files implementing REST endpoints, files handling HTTP requests and responses, server middleware for API requests, API authentication and authorization logic, and files defining API versioning strategies. When designing URL structures for resources, implementing query parameter handling for filtering/s
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill backend-api-spaceplushy-portfolio-3 --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.
# Backend API This Skill provides Claude Code with specific guidance on how to adhere to coding standards as they relate to how it should handle backend API. ## When to use this skill - When creating or editing API route files (e.g., `src/pages/api/*.ts`, `src/pages/api/*.js`) - When implementing RESTful endpoints with GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE methods - When designing resource-based URL structures and route hierarchies - When handling query parameters for filtering, sorting, pagination, or search functionality - When defining API response formats and HTTP status codes - When implementing API versioning strategies (URL path or header-based) - When setting up rate limiting, throttling, or API quota management - When configuring API security headers, CORS policies, or authentication middleware - When writing server-side request handlers or middleware functions - When working on API documentation or OpenAPI/Swagger specifications ## Instructions For details, refer to the information provided in this file: [backend API](../../../agent-os/standards/backend/api.md)

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill backend-api-spaceplushy-portfolio-3 --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.
