api-documentation

api-documentation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Aryan-Jhaveri/mcp-statcan. It costs 61 tokens per session (558 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An API documentation skill defines or improves the shared description of an API, including authentication, inputs, responses, and examples. It can use an OpenAPI specification or a Postman collection, which stores runnable requests and checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate documentation, create a collection from an OpenAPI specification, publish API docs, or improve details such as permissions, pagination, retries, and side effects.
Why use it?
Clear, maintained information helps callers integrate without reading the implementation and keeps documentation, tests, and mocks based on the same contract.

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

api-documentation 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 today.

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.

API Documentation

A maintained contract gives callers enough information to integrate without reading the implementation. Keeping descriptions and examples beside the API artifacts lets the same knowledge support documentation, tests, and mocks, with changes reviewable alongside code.

  1. Start from the existing source of truth. An OpenAPI spec describes the interface for tooling; a Postman collection adds runnable requests, examples, and assertions. Maintain both when both uses matter, with an explicit direction of generation or synchronization so they do not become competing definitions. Local edits need bootstrap only when setup or bindings are unresolved.
  2. When the spec is authoritative, reuse its operations with postman spec generate collection <spec-path-or-id> -n "<collection-name>". Inspect the generated result before replacing an existing collection: maintained scripts and examples carry knowledge beyond endpoint shapes.
  3. Describe what changes a caller's decision: required versus optional inputs, auth and scopes, response guarantees, pagination, retryable failures, and side effects. Derive guarantees from the agreed contract or verified behavior; label unresolved design choices instead of inventing them. Use REST design guidance when a design choice affects usability or compatibility, not to redesign an unrelated interface while filling a documentation gap.
  4. Save examples that clarify consequential cases, including relevant errors. Examples become inputs for mocks as well as explanations for readers; a success-only example can hide the failure path callers must handle. Use collection-schema-v3 for local collection edits and variables to keep credentials out of reusable requests and examples.
  5. Choose delivery by audience. Local artifacts support Git review; publishing to the bound workspace makes them available to teammates with access (see bootstrap). A workspace push does not itself publish a public docs page or change permissions. For a public documentation link, use postman-mcp-server's documentation workflow and the available publishing tool; establish the intended audience before public exposure.
