API Documentor Skill

Purpose

The API Documentor Skill automatically generates comprehensive API documentation from code, including OpenAPI/Swagger specs, GraphQL schemas, and client SDKs. It eliminates manual documentation efforts and ensures API docs stay synchronized with implementation.

Key Capabilities:

• Generate OpenAPI 3.0 specifications from REST APIs
• Create GraphQL schema documentation
• Auto-generate client SDKs (Python, JavaScript, Go, Java)
• Generate API reference documentation
• Create interactive API explorers
• Validate API implementations against specs

Target Token Savings: 80% (from ~3000 tokens to ~600 tokens)

Configuration

{
  "api-documentor": {
    "openapi": {
      "version": "3.0.0",
      "title": "API Documentation",
      "description": "Auto-generated API documentation",
      "contact": {
        "name": "API Team",

Examples

Example 1: Generate OpenAPI from Flask App

python ~/.claude/skills/api-documentor/scripts/main.py \
  --operation generate-openapi \
  --app-file app.py

Output:

openapi: 3.0.0
info:
  title: User API
  version: 1.0.0
paths:
  /users:
    get:
      summary: List users
      responses:
        '200':
          description: Successful response
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                type: array
                items:
                  $ref: '#/components/schemas/User'

Example 2: Generate Python SDK

python ~/.claude/skills/api-documentor/scripts/main.py \
  --operation generate-sdk \
  --spec openapi.yaml \
  --language python

Output: Complete Python SDK with methods for all API endpoints

Token Economics

Without Skill: ~3000 tokens (manual documentation) With Skill: ~600 tokens (80% savings)

Success Metrics

• Execution time: <500ms for OpenAPI generation
• SDK generation: <2s for full client
• Accuracy: 100% spec compliance
• Token savings: 80%
