Guides designing, reviewing, and governing RESTful APIs — resource modeling, URL structure, HTTP methods, status codes, error handling (RFC 9457), pagination, versioning, security, authentication, caching, idempotency, bulk operations, async patterns, file uploads, OpenAPI documentation, API-first process, and AI-agent consumers. Use when designing new REST API endpoints, reviewing existing API designs, adopting API-first development, running API design sessions, enforcing API contracts in CI/CD, governing an API program, choosing between REST patterns (cursor vs offset pagination, PUT vs PATCH, polling vs webhooks), writing OpenAPI specs, designing for AI-agent consumers (MCP), or making API evolution and deprecation decisions.
