What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures your API endpoints use the correct HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) according to their defined semantics, leading to more predictable, cacheable, and reliable web services.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Correct Method Selection: Guides users on choosing the appropriate HTTP verb for CRUD operations and custom actions.
  • Idempotency Enforcement: Explains and enforces idempotency rules for safe retries and predictable behavior.
  • Use Case: When designing a new API endpoint to update a user's profile, this Skill helps you decide whether to use PUT for a full replacement or PATCH for a partial update, and ensures the correct status codes and request/response formats are used.

Quick Start

Use the http-methods skill to determine the correct HTTP verb for creating a new user resource.
