API and MCP Integration
Define:
Purpose | Owner | Provider | Endpoint/tool | Authentication | Permissions
Request/input | Response/output | Validation | Idempotency | Timeout | Retry
Rate limit | Error mapping | Audit | Secrets | Data classification
Observability | Fallback | Destructive/read-only annotations
Verify current official documentation. Keep secrets out of code and logs.
Validate both directions, define retries and idempotency, map errors safely, and
test failure and permission paths. New integrations require approval.
For MCP building, consult the Anthropic mcp-builder entry in the reference
catalogue and invoke reference-router.
