design-api-integration

design-api-integration is a command for Claude Code from Amey-Thakur/AI-SKILLS. It costs 16 tokens per session (254 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design prompt for connecting an application to a third-party API, a service operated by another company or system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan internal interfaces, timeouts, retries, degraded behaviour, data mapping, credential rotation, monitoring, and eventual replacement.
Why use it?
It keeps the external service's failures, rate limits, data formats, and credential requirements from spreading through your application.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

design-api-integration scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You were invoked as a slash command. The user's input:

$ARGUMENTS

Use that input to fill this prompt's variables (take the main content, topic, or task from it; ask only if a required value is missing and not supplied), then follow the prompt exactly.


Design an integration with:

{api}

Usage: {usage}

Use third-party-integration, integration-resilience, rate-limit-handling, and data-mapping.

Cover:

  • The interface you expose internally, isolating their model from yours.
  • Timeouts, retries, and what happens when the service is down.
  • Rate limit handling and how you stay under.
  • How their data maps into yours, including unknown enum values.
  • Credential scope, storage, and rotation.
  • What you monitor and what alerts.
  • How you would migrate away.

Rules: decide the degraded behaviour explicitly rather than defaulting to failure. Never call a third party synchronously in a critical path without saying what happens when it is slow. State which of their terms constrain the design. Treat their responses as untrusted input.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
