route

An API route creator for Node.js web projects. It examines the project's framework and existing patterns, then adds routes with validation, error handling, middleware, tests, and router registration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating or improving API endpoints in Express, Fastify, NestJS, or similar Node.js frameworks. It helps define methods, paths, request and response types, middleware, tests, and registration.
Why use it?
It removes the need to work out the project's routing style and supporting code by hand. It helps keep new endpoints consistent with existing authentication and validation practices.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

route 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 2d 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.

Route Creator

Create API routes for $ARGUMENTS following project conventions.

Task

Create or optimize API routes based on the requirements:

  1. Analyze project structure: Check existing route patterns, folder organization, and framework setup
  2. Examine framework: Identify if using Express, Fastify, NestJS, or other Node.js framework
  3. Review existing routes: Understand current routing patterns, validation, and error handling
  4. Check authentication: Review existing auth middleware and protection patterns
  5. Define route structure: Determine HTTP methods, path parameters, and request/response schemas
  6. Implement routes: Create route handlers with proper validation and error handling
  7. Add middleware: Include authentication, validation, and logging middleware as needed
  8. Create tests: Write route tests following project testing patterns
  9. Update route registration: Integrate new routes into main router configuration

Implementation Requirements

  • Follow project's routing architecture and naming conventions
  • Use existing validation libraries (Joi, Zod, class-validator, etc.)
  • Include proper TypeScript types for request/response objects
  • Add comprehensive error handling with appropriate HTTP status codes
  • Implement proper authentication/authorization if required
  • Follow RESTful conventions unless project uses different patterns
  • Add proper logging and monitoring integration

Route Patterns to Consider

Based on the request:

  • CRUD operations: Create, Read, Update, Delete for resources
  • RESTful endpoints: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE with proper semantics
  • Nested resources: Parent/child resource relationships
  • Batch operations: Bulk create, update, delete operations
  • Search/filtering: Query parameters for filtering and pagination
  • File uploads: Multipart form handling for file operations
  • Webhook endpoints: External service integration points

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.

route is a command published in the GitHub repository Justdvp/claude-code-templates (7 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 555 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
