graphql

graphql is a skill for Claude Code from TheBeardedBearSAS/claude-craft. It costs 0 tokens per session (443 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for designing GraphQL APIs, a way for clients to request exactly the data they need from an API.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for GraphQL schemas, Apollo Federation, schema stitching, resolvers, pagination, error handling, batching, caching, and query limits.
Why use it?
It helps structure schemas and avoid slow patterns such as sending one database query for every returned item.

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

graphql 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

GraphQL — Apollo Federation, Schema Design

API GraphQL moderne avec federation, DataLoader, optimisations.

GraphQL vs REST

GraphQL — 1 query sur-mesure, no versioning, introspection auto
REST — Multiple endpoints, over-fetching, v1/v2/v3

Apollo Federation

# Users service
type User @key(fields: "id") { id: ID!, name: String! }

# Orders service
extend type User @key(fields: "id") {
  id: ID! @external
  orders: [Order!]!
}

Gateway compose automatiquement les services.

N+1 Problem — DataLoader

// ❌ N+1 queries
User: { orders: (u) => db.orders.findByUserId(u.id) }

// ✅ DataLoader batch
const loader = new DataLoader(async (ids) => {
  const orders = await db.orders.findByUserIds(ids);
  return ids.map(id => orders.filter(o => o.userId === id));
});
User: { orders: (u) => loader.load(u.id) }

Patterns

Pagination (Relay)

type UserConnection {
  edges: [{ node: User!, cursor: String! }]!
  pageInfo: { hasNextPage: Boolean!, endCursor: String }!
}

Error Handling

type CreateUserPayload {
  user: User
  errors: [{ field: String, message: String! }]
}

Optimizations

DataLoader — Batch + cache
Persisted Queries — Hash lookup
Depth Limiting — Anti-DoS
Cost Analysis — Query budget

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.

graphql is a skill published in the GitHub repository TheBeardedBearSAS/claude-craft (107 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 443 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 2026-09-03.
