init-rest-api

init-rest-api is a skill for Claude Code from voro6yov/spec-driven-development. It costs 24 tokens per session (2,297 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup command that creates the shared files and folders needed for a Python REST API, including authentication and error handling. REST is a way for software systems to communicate over HTTP.

In plain words
What is it for?
It prepares the API package, serializer code, authentication integration, error handlers, and related application wiring for later REST API generation.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of preparing the API foundation before generating individual endpoints.

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

init-rest-api 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 12d 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 — 179 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the project-wide REST API initializer. Ensure that the current repository has the minimum directory structure and module set required for any subsequent @rest-api-spec:code-generator (or /rest-api-spec:generate-rest-api) run:

  • the api/ Python package (with a minimal __init__.py that satisfies the from .X import * + __all__ = X.__all__ + ... aggregation convention required by @auth-integrator),
  • the shared serializer modules under api/serializers/ (error.py, configured_base_serializer.py, json_utils.py) and their star-aggregator serializers/__init__.py, copied from the spec-core:modules umbrella,
  • api/error_handlers.py rendered from the domain exceptions defined under <pkg>/domain/shared/exceptions.py, with register_error_handler(fastapi_app) wired into create_fastapi,
  • the application/auth/ subpackage (AuthCommands + UserData), api/auth.py rendered from the auth-middleware skill template with PUBLIC_ENDPOINTS / INTERNAL_ENDPOINTS_PREFIX derived from <pkg>/constants.py, the Singleton(AuthCommands) provider in containers.py, and register_auth(fastapi_app) wired into create_fastapi,
  • the standard API client + authentication fixtures (app, client, containers, token_payload, request_headers) added to src/tests/conftest.py.

This skill performs no per-resource work — per-surface package layout, endpoint modules, per-aggregate serializers, integration tests, top-level endpoints/__init__.py, and API-routing constants are still owned by the per-resource scaffolders and implementers run via @rest-api-spec:code-generator.

Inputs

None. The skill operates entirely on the current working directory.

Output discipline

This skill is silent on success. Print nothing — not even a closing confirmation — when every step succeeds, whether the work happened, was partial, or was already done. Print only on failure: a single ERROR: ... line naming the failure, then stop. Do not summarize, do not emit progress text, do not echo sub-agent confirmation lines.

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.
