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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00056 | $0.01179 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00589 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00236 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00118 |
Grade A, and why
backend-api-design 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 10d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 130 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Backend API design
Cuándo usar
- Crear un endpoint nuevo o cambiar uno existente.
- Diseñar un contrato entre frontend y backend o entre servicios.
- Revisar un PR que toca rutas, payloads o códigos de estado.
Recursos y verbos
Pensá en recursos (sustantivos), no en acciones:
| Acción | Verbo | Ruta |
|---|---|---|
| Listar | GET |
/usuarios |
| Obtener | GET |
/usuarios/{id} |
| Crear | POST |
/usuarios |
| Reemplazar | PUT |
/usuarios/{id} |
| Modificar parcial | PATCH |
/usuarios/{id} |
| Borrar | DELETE |
/usuarios/{id} |
| Sub-recurso | GET |
/usuarios/{id}/sesiones |
Acciones que no son CRUD: POST /usuarios/{id}/activar. No POST /activarUsuario.
Códigos de estado
Los más usados, sin inventar:
- 200 OK — éxito con cuerpo.
- 201 Created — creado, devolvé
Locationcon la URL. - 204 No Content — éxito sin cuerpo (típico
DELETE). - 400 Bad Request — payload o parámetro inválido.
- 401 Unauthorized — falta credencial o es inválida.
- 403 Forbidden — autenticado, pero no autorizado.
- 404 Not Found — el recurso no existe.
- 409 Conflict — conflicto de estado (duplicado, versión).
- 422 Unprocessable — sintaxis ok, semántica no.
- 429 Too Many Requests — rate limit.
- 500 Internal Server Error — bug nuestro.
- 503 Service Unavailable — caído / mantenimiento.
Nunca 200 con { "error": ... }. El estado va en el HTTP.
Errores estructurados
Adoptá un formato único en toda la API. Recomendado: RFC 9457 (Problem Details):
{
"type": "https://api.tu-app.com/errors/usuario-no-encontrado",
"title": "Usuario no encontrado",
"status": 404,
"detail": "No existe un usuario con id 'abc123'.",
"instance": "/usuarios/abc123"
}
Incluí campos extras útiles: errors (lista de fallos por campo), traceId.
Nunca devuelvas stack traces ni nombres de tablas a un cliente.
Versionado
- En la URL (
/v1/usuarios) — simple, cacheable, visible. - O en el header (
Accept: application/vnd.tuapp.v1+json) — para puristas. - Subí versión solo en cambio incompatible. Agregar campo opcional no rompe.
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.

backend-api-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository contactandrewchl-wq/turtle-mcp (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,179 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. 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.
