API Documentation Workflow

Overview

Specialized workflow for creating comprehensive API documentation including OpenAPI/Swagger specs, developer guides, code examples, and interactive documentation.

When to Use This Workflow

Use this workflow when:

• Creating API documentation
• Generating OpenAPI specs
• Writing developer guides
• Adding code examples
• Setting up API portals

Scope and execution

Choose the phases that match the user’s task; this document is an index, not an instruction to run every listed skill. Read a selected skill before using it. Respect repository and user constraints. Cloud calls, host configuration, publishing, destructive operations and spending require the applicable authorization; a workflow checklist does not grant it.

Base the contract on the actual implementation/specification and keep secrets out of examples. “Try it” can send real requests: use explicit sandbox endpoints and test credentials. Preview documentation locally before publishing; deployment is a separate authorized action.

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
