api-scaffolding

A starter for building REST and GraphQL APIs, which are ways for software systems to exchange data. It also covers choosing a framework and planning the backend structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose an API framework, plan backend architecture, and generate REST or GraphQL API code.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent deciding how an API and its backend should be organised. It gives an agent a defined starting point for generating API code.

Grade A, and why

api-scaffolding 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.

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.
