name: tue-api-wrapper description: Use when working in the tue-api-wrapper repository: adding university system endpoints, improving iOS/Electron/Next.js/ChatGPT surfaces, validating endpoint coverage, or helping agents onboard to the project.

TUE API Wrapper

Use this skill for repository-local work in tue-api-wrapper.

Architecture

• package/: Python clients, parsers, shared contracts, FastAPI routes, tests.
• ios/: SwiftUI app. Prefer Swift-native clients for app features when practical, using Python as the reference for request shape and parsing.
• desktop/: Electron shell with a managed local Python sidecar. Authenticated desktop flows should use the local sidecar, not hosted Cloud Run.
• nextjs/, chatgpt/, go/: secondary surfaces consuming shared contracts.

Working Rules

• No mock/fallback data unless explicitly requested. Surface errors clearly.
• Keep files under 300 LOC; split views, models, clients, and helpers.
• Do not route student credentials through hosted services.
• Preserve unrelated dirty work from other agents.
• Prefer typed models and parsers over string scraping in UI code.

Endpoint Workflow

1. Find existing routes with rg -n "@.*api|/api/" package/src/tue_api_wrapper.
2. Locate client/parser code near the target system, for example alma_*, ilias_*, moodle_*, mail_*, campus_*.
3. Add or update dataclass contracts and serialization through portal_service.serialize.
4. Add focused tests in package/tests/, using fixtures only when live credentials are not required.
5. Expose a shared FastAPI contract, then port the same request/parsing behavior natively in iOS when needed.

Validation Commands

• Python: cd package && pytest
• Desktop: npm --prefix desktop run build
• iOS: npm run build:ios
• Next.js: npm --prefix nextjs run build

Release Notes

Desktop releases are triggered by pushing tags matching desktop-v*; the workflow builds macOS DMG, Windows NSIS EXE, and Linux AppImage.
