Generate complete REST API implementations from OpenAPI specifications or database schemas. Use when generating RESTful API implementations. Trigger with phrases like "generate REST API", "create RESTful API", or "build REST endpoints".

Generate complete, production-ready REST API implementations from OpenAPI specifications, database schemas, or resource definitions. Scaffold CRUD endpoints with proper HTTP method semantics, content negotiation, pagination, filtering, and HATEOAS link generation across Express, FastAPI, Spring Boot, and Gin frameworks.
GET /resources (list with pagination), GET /resources/:id, POST /resources, PUT /resources/:id, and DELETE /resources/:id.?status=active), sorting (?sort=-created_at), field selection (?fields=id,name), and cursor-based or offset pagination.See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/implementation.md for the full step-by-step implementation guide.

|---|---|---|
| 400 Bad Request | Request body fails schema validation | Return field-level validation errors with JSON pointer paths to invalid fields |
| 401 Unauthorized | Missing or malformed Authorization header | Respond with WWW-Authenticate header indicating expected auth scheme |
| 404 Not Found | Resource ID does not exist in data store | Return RFC 7807 body with resource type and requested ID for debugging |
| 409 Conflict | Unique constraint violation on create/update | Include conflicting field name and existing value hint in error response |
| 429 Too Many Requests | Client exceeds rate limit | Return Retry-After header with seconds until next allowed request window |
Refer to ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/errors.md for comprehensive error patterns.
E-commerce product API: Generate CRUD endpoints for a Product resource with nested Category relationships, image upload handling, and inventory tracking fields with optimistic concurrency via ETags.
Multi-tenant SaaS API: Scaffold tenant-scoped endpoints where all queries automatically filter by tenant_id extracted from JWT claims, with tenant isolation enforced at the middleware layer.
Public read API with admin writes: Create a dual-access API where GET endpoints are publicly cacheable (Cache-Control headers) while POST/PUT/DELETE require admin-role JWT tokens.
See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/examples.md for additional examples.
