OpenAPI Workflow Skill

Automatically runs the OpenAPI workflow when spec files are modified.

When to Activate

This skill should activate when:

  • Files in backend/api/*.yaml are modified
  • New endpoints are added to OpenAPI spec
  • Request/response schemas are changed
  • User asks to add/modify API endpoints

OpenAPI Spec Location

Type Path Purpose
API Spec backend/api/openapi.yaml Public API definition

Workflow Steps

1. Validate Spec

python3 scripts/openapi_workflow.py --validate

2. Generate Code (All Platforms)

python3 scripts/openapi_workflow.py --codegen

This generates:

  • Backend (Go): backend/internal/generated/
  • iOS (Swift): mobile/ios/App/Generated/
  • Android (Kotlin): mobile/android/app/src/main/java/.../generated/
  • Web (TypeScript): web/src/generated/

3. Build Verification

python3 scripts/openapi_workflow.py --build

4. Full Workflow (All Steps)

python3 scripts/openapi_workflow.py --full

Critical Rules

Rule Why
Define response schemas properly Inline schemas don't generate reusable types
Use plural file names REST convention: users.yaml not user.yaml
Always regenerate after spec changes Generated code must match spec
Verify ALL platforms build API changes affect backend + iOS + Android + web

Process

  1. Detect OpenAPI spec was modified
  2. Run validation to catch syntax/semantic errors
  3. Regenerate code for all platforms
  4. Run build verification
  5. Report any failures

Output Format

## OpenAPI Workflow Results

**Spec Modified**: [file path]
**Validation**: ✅ Passed / ❌ Failed
**Code Generation**: ✅ All platforms / ❌ Failed for [platform]
**Build Verification**: ✅ All platforms / ❌ Failed for [platform]
