Agent Skills: Backend API

Design and implement RESTful API endpoints following best practices for routing, versioning, and HTTP standards. Use this skill when creating or modifying API routes, controllers, or endpoints in files like routes/api.php, API controller files in app/Http/Controllers/Api/, controller files in app/Http/Controllers/, API resource classes, or when implementing REST API functionality. Use when working on URL structures, HTTP method handling (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE), API versioning strategies, query parameter handling for filtering/sorting/pagination, HTTP status code responses, rate limiting configuration, or any API endpoint design decisions.

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 definitions in routes/api.php or similar routing files
  • When building or modifying controllers in app/Http/Controllers/ or controller directories
  • When building or modifying API controllers in app/Http/Controllers/Api/ or API-specific controller directories
  • When implementing RESTful endpoints with proper HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE)
  • When designing URL structures and resource-based API paths
  • When implementing API versioning (URL path versioning like /api/v1/ or header-based versioning)
  • When configuring query parameters for filtering, sorting, pagination, or search functionality
  • When determining appropriate HTTP status codes for API responses (200, 201, 400, 404, 500, etc.)
  • When implementing rate limiting headers or API throttling
  • When creating nested resource routes or working with resource relationships in APIs
  • When writing API resource transformation classes or response formatting logic
