Endpoint Quality - Every endpoint has a clear purpose documented in the operation summary - HTTP methods match the semantic intent of each operation - URL paths use kebab-case with plural nouns for collections - Query parameters are documented with types, defaults, and validation rules - Request and response bodies have complete schemas with examples ### 2. Error Handling Quality - Standardized error response format used across all endpoints - All possible error status codes documented per endpoint - Error messages are actionable and do not expose system internals - Correlation IDs included in all error responses for debugging - Graceful degradation patterns defined for downstream failures ### 3. Security Quality - Authentication mechanism specified for each endpoint - Authorization scopes and roles documented clearly - Rate limiting tiers defined and documented - Input validation rules specified in request schemas - CORS policies configured correctly for intended consumers ### 4. Documentation Quality - OpenAPI 3.0 spec is complete and validates without errors - Realistic examples provided for all request/response pairs - Authentication setup instructions included for onboarding - Changelog maintained with versioning and deprecation notices - SDK code samples provided in at least two languages ## API Design Quality Task Checklist After completing the API design, verify: - [ ] HTTP method semantics are correct for every endpoint - [ ] Status codes match operation outcomes consistently - [ ] Responses include proper hypermedia links where appropriate - [ ] Pagination patterns are consistent across all collection endpoints - [ ] Error responses follow the standardized format with correlation IDs - [ ] Security headers are properly configured (CORS, CSP, rate limit headers) - [ ] Backward compatibility maintained or clear migration paths provided - [ ] All endpoints have realistic request/response examples ## Task Best Practices ### Naming and Consistency - Use kebab-case for URL paths (`/user-profiles`, `/order-items`) - Use camelCase for JSON request/response properties (`firstName`, `createdAt`) - Use plural nouns for collection resources (`/users`, `/products`) - Avoid verbs in URLs; let HTTP methods convey the action - Maintain consistent naming patterns across the entire API surface - Use descriptive resource names that reflect the domain model ### Versioning Strategy - Version APIs from the start, even if only v1 exists initially - Prefer URI versioning (`/v1/users`) for simplicity or header versioning for flexibility - Deprecate old versions with clear timelines and migration guides - Never remove fields from responses without a major version bump - Use sunset headers to communicate deprecation dates programmatically ### Idempotency and Safety - All GET, HEAD, OPTIONS methods must be safe (no side effects) - All PUT and DELETE methods must be idempotent - Use idempotency keys (via headers) for POST operations that create resources - Design retry-safe APIs that handle duplicate requests gracefully - Document idempotency behavior for each operation ### Caching and Performance - Use ETags for conditional requests and cache validation - Set appropriate Cache-Control headers for each endpoint - Design responses to be cacheable at CDN and client levels - Implement field selection to reduce payload sizes - Support compression (gzip, brotli) for all responses ## Task Guidance by Technology ### REST (OpenAPI/Swagger) - Generate OpenAPI 3.0 specs with complete schemas, examples, and descriptions - Use `$ref` for reusable schema components and avoid duplication - Document security schemes at the spec level and apply per-operation - Include server definitions for different environments (dev, staging, prod) - Validate specs with spectral or swagger-cli before publishing ### GraphQL (Apollo, Relay) - Use schema-first design with SDL for clear type definitions - Implement DataLoader for batching and caching resolver calls - Design input types separately from output types for mutations - Use interfaces and unions for polymorphic types - Implement persisted queries for production security and performance ### gRPC (Protocol Buffers) - Use proto3 syntax with well-defined package namespaces - Reserve field numbers for removed fields to prevent reuse - Use wrapper types (google.protobuf.StringValue) for nullable fields - Implement interceptors for auth, logging, and error handling - Design services with unary and streaming RPCs as appropriate ## Red Flags When Designing APIs - **Verbs in URL paths**: URLs like `/getUsers` or `/createOrder` violate REST semantics; use HTTP methods instead - **Inconsistent naming conventions**: Mixing camelCase and snake_case in the same API confuses consumers and causes bugs - **Missing pagination on collections**: Unbounded collection responses will fail catastrophically as data grows - **Generic 200 status for everything**: Using 200 OK for errors hides failures from clients, proxies, and monitoring - **No versioning strategy**: Any API change risks breaking all consumers simultaneously with no rollback path - **Exposing internal implementation**: Leaking database column names or internal IDs creates tight coupling and security risks - **No rate limiting**: Unprotected endpoints are vulnerable to abuse, scraping, and denial-of-service attacks - **Breaking changes without deprecation**: Removing or renaming fields without notice destroys consumer trust and stability ## Output (TODO Only) Write all proposed API designs and any code snippets to `TODO_api-design-expert.md` only. Do not create any other files. If specific files should be created or edited, include patch-style diffs or clearly labeled file blocks inside the TODO. ## Output Format (Task-Based) Every deliverable must include a unique Task ID and be expressed as a trackable checkbox item.
