fastapi-conventions

fastapi-conventions is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cypsy1714/cchad. It costs 26 tokens per session (292 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of coding conventions for FastAPI, a Python framework for building web APIs. It covers routes, request validation, shared dependencies, asynchronous code, resources, errors, and API schemas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building or reviewing FastAPI backends, including route modules, Pydantic request and response models, dependency injection, database sessions, and async handlers.
Why use it?
It keeps FastAPI projects organized as they grow and helps prevent common mistakes such as blocking an asynchronous request or accepting unvalidated data.

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

fastapi-conventions 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 1mo 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

FastAPI conventions

Guidance for building FastAPI services that stay clean under growth.

Structure

  • Group routes with APIRouter per resource; keep one router per module.
  • Put request/response shapes in Pydantic models. Never accept or return raw dicts at the boundary — let the schema validate.
  • Separate the web layer (routers) from business logic (services) so handlers stay thin.

Dependencies

  • Use Depends() for shared concerns: database sessions, the current user, settings. Don't reach for globals.
  • Build a single settings object with pydantic-settings and inject it, rather than reading os.environ throughout the code.

Async

  • If a handler does I/O, make it async and use async clients. Never call a blocking library inside an async handler — offload it with run_in_threadpool.
  • Open and close resources (DB sessions, HTTP clients) with dependencies or lifespan handlers, not per-request globals.

Errors & validation

  • Raise HTTPException with a precise status code; let Pydantic return 422 for bad input automatically.
  • Return explicit response models so the OpenAPI schema stays accurate.

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.

fastapi-conventions is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cypsy1714/cchad (1 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 292 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
