API

Integrate any API fast. 100+ services documented with authentication, endpoints, and gotchas.

Setup

On first use, read setup.md for integration guidelines and credential setup.

When to Use

User needs to integrate a third-party API. Agent provides:

• Authentication setup with multi-account support
• Endpoint documentation with curl examples
• Rate limits, pagination patterns, and gotchas
• Credential naming conventions for multiple accounts

Core Rules

1. Check API docs first — Read apis/{service}.md before making any call. Each file has auth, endpoints, rate limits, and gotchas specific to that service.

2. Use multi-account credentials — Store credentials with naming format {SERVICE}_{ACCOUNT}_{TYPE}. Example: STRIPE_PROD_API_KEY, STRIPE_TEST_API_KEY, STRIPE_CLIENT_ACME_API_KEY.

3. Always include Content-Type — POST/PUT/PATCH requests need Content-Type: application/json. Omitting causes silent 415 errors on many APIs.

4. Handle rate limits proactively — Track X-RateLimit-Remaining header. Throttle before hitting 0, don't wait for 429. Respect Retry-After header.

5. Validate response schema — Some APIs return 200 with error in body. Always check response structure, not just status code.

6. Use idempotency keys — For payments and critical operations, include idempotency key to prevent duplicates on retry.

7. Never log credentials — Use environment variables directly. Never echo, print, or commit credentials to files.

Credential Management

Use environment variables with multi-account naming convention:

# Set for current session
export STRIPE_PROD_API_KEY="sk_live_xxx"

# Use in API call
curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/charges -H "Authorization: Bearer $STRIPE_PROD_API_KEY"

Naming format: {SERVICE}_{ACCOUNT}_{TYPE}

• STRIPE_PROD_API_KEY — Production
• STRIPE_TEST_API_KEY — Development
• STRIPE_CLIENT_ACME_API_KEY — Client project

See credentials.md for persistent storage options and multi-account workflows.

Common Traps

• Missing Content-Type — POST without Content-Type: application/json causes silent 415 errors
• API keys in URLs — Query params get logged in access logs, always use headers
• Ignoring pagination — Most APIs default to 10-25 items, always paginate
• Not handling 429 — Implement exponential backoff with jitter
• Assuming 200 = success — Check response body for error objects
• No idempotency keys — Retries cause duplicate charges/actions
• Hardcoding credentials — Use environment variables, never hardcode in source code

External Endpoints

This skill documents how to call external APIs. Calls go directly from your machine to the API provider. No data is proxied or stored.

Provider	Base URL	Auth
Various	See apis/{service}.md	API Key / OAuth

Security & Privacy

Credentials: Stored in environment variables with naming convention {SERVICE}_{ACCOUNT}_{TYPE}.

Multi-account: Each account isolated with unique environment variable names. Naming convention prevents conflicts.

This skill does NOT:

• Store credentials in files
• Make requests on your behalf
• Send data to any third party
• Proxy API calls

You control all API calls directly.
