BF api-design-and-evolution

Design, govern, document, review, and evolve consumer-facing APIs and event interfaces. Use when choosing REST/HTTP, GraphQL, RPC, events, webhooks, or streaming; writing OpenAPI or AsyncAPI contracts; assessing an API landscape, ownership, duplication, lifecycle, discoverability, retirement, gateways, service meshes, north-south or east-west traffic, routing, policy, observability, or failure boundaries; defining schemas, pagination, mutations, errors, idempotency, or compatibility; or planning versioning, deprecation, and migration. Do not use for product discovery, platform operations, full security assessment, ADR authoring, or delivery gates; route those to the neighboring specialist skills.

How to improve

  1. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
For the model run — optional
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
  • low No test case covers injection arriving through data

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
