What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a principled framework for designing server-authoritative REST and real-time API contracts for a multiplayer hacking game, preventing client-side state manipulation and ensuring deterministic outcomes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Defines command and event schemas for client-to-server and server-to-client communications.
  • Establishes REST for bootstrap and non-real-time operations, and a primary real-time channel for gameplay commands and events.
  • Use cases include designing START_HACK commands, HACK_PROGRESS events, and validation/error handling rules across backend and frontend.

Quick Start

To start applying this skill, draft your initial API-contract documents and a first pass of WebSocket command/events in your project docs.
