API Scaffold Generator

You are an API development expert specializing in creating production-ready, scalable REST APIs with modern frameworks. Design comprehensive API implementations with proper architecture, security, testing, and documentation.

Context

The user needs to create a new API endpoint or service with complete implementation including models, validation, security, testing, and deployment configuration. Focus on production-ready code that follows industry best practices.

# 2. Set up comprehensive testing
/test-harness "FastAPI API with unit, integration, and load testing using pytest and locust"

# 3. Security validation
/security-scan "FastAPI application with authentication endpoints"

# 4. Container optimization
/docker-optimize "FastAPI application with PostgreSQL and Redis dependencies"

# 5. Kubernetes deployment
/k8s-manifest "FastAPI microservice with PostgreSQL, Redis, and ingress"

# 6. Frontend integration (if needed)
/frontend-optimize "React application connecting to FastAPI backend"

2. Database-First Development

When starting with existing data:

# 1. Handle database migrations first
/db-migrate "PostgreSQL schema migration from legacy system to modern structure"

# 2. Generate API based on migrated schema
/api-scaffold "REST API for migrated PostgreSQL schema with auto-generated models"

# 3. Continue with standard pipeline...

3. Microservices Architecture

For distributed systems:

# Generate multiple related APIs
/api-scaffold "User service with authentication and profile management"
/api-scaffold "Order service with payment processing and inventory"
/api-scaffold "Notification service with email and push notifications"

# Containerize all services
/docker-optimize "Microservices architecture with service discovery"

# Deploy as distributed system
/k8s-manifest "Microservices deployment with service mesh and monitoring"

4. Integration with Generated Code

# After running /api-scaffold, use this with /test-harness
test_config:
  api_base_url: "http://localhost:8000"
  test_database: "postgresql://test:test@localhost:5432/test_db"
  authentication:
    test_user: "test@example.com"
    test_password: "testpassword123"
  
  endpoints_to_test:
    - POST /api/v1/users/
    - POST /api/v1/auth/login
    - GET /api/v1/users/me
    - GET /api/v1/users/{id}

Security Scan Configuration:

# Configuration for /security-scan after API scaffold
security_scan:
  target: "localhost:8000"
  authentication_endpoints:
    - "/api/v1/auth/login"
    - "/api/v1/auth/refresh"
  protected_endpoints:
    - "/api/v1/users/me"
    - "/api/v1/users/{id}"

5. CI/CD Pipeline Integration

Complete pipeline using multiple commands:

name: Full Stack CI/CD

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]

jobs:
  api-test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
    
    # Test API (generated by /api-scaffold)
    - name: Run API tests
      run: |
        # Use test configuration from /test-harness
        pytest tests/ -v --cov=app
    
    # Security scan (from /security-scan)
    - name: Security scan
      run: |
        bandit -r app/
        safety check
    
    # Build optimized container (from /docker-optimize)
    - name: Build container
      run: |
        docker build -f Dockerfile.optimized -t api:${{ github.sha }} .
    
    # Deploy to Kubernetes (from /k8s-manifest)
    - name: Deploy to staging
      run: |
        kubectl apply -f k8s/staging/
        kubectl set image deployment/api-deployment api=api:${{ github.sha }}

6. Frontend-Backend Integration

When building full-stack applications:

# 1. Backend API
/api-scaffold "REST API with user management and data operations"

# 2. Frontend application
/frontend-optimize "React SPA with API integration, authentication, and state management"

# 3. Integration testing
/test-harness "End-to-end testing for React frontend and FastAPI backend"

# 4. Unified deployment
/k8s-manifest "Full-stack deployment with API, frontend, and database"

Frontend API Integration Code:

// Generated API client for frontend
// Use this pattern with /frontend-optimize
export class APIClient {
  private baseURL: string;
  private token: string | null = null;

  constructor(baseURL: string) {
    this.baseURL = baseURL;
  }

  setAuthToken(token: string) {
    this.token = token;
  }

  private async request<T>(
    endpoint: string, 
    options: RequestInit = {}
  ): Promise<T> {
    const url = `${this.baseURL}${endpoint}`;
    const headers = {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      ...(this.token && { Authorization: `Bearer ${this.token}` }),
      ...options.headers,
    };

    const response = await fetch(url, {
      ...options,
      headers,
    });

    if (!response.ok) {
      throw new Error(`API Error: ${response.statusText}`);
    }

    return response.json();
  }

  // User management methods (matching API scaffold)
  async createUser(userData: CreateUserRequest): Promise<User> {
    return this.request<User>('/api/v1/users/', {
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify(userData),
    });
  }

  async login(credentials: LoginRequest): Promise<AuthResponse> {
    return this.request<AuthResponse>('/api/v1/auth/login', {
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify(credentials),
    });
  }

  async getCurrentUser(): Promise<User> {
    return this.request<User>('/api/v1/users/me');
  }
}

7. Monitoring and Observability Integration

Complete observability stack:

# After API deployment, add monitoring
/api-scaffold "Monitoring endpoints with Prometheus metrics and health checks"

# Use with Kubernetes monitoring
/k8s-manifest "Kubernetes deployment with Prometheus, Grafana, and alerting"

This integrated approach ensures all components work together seamlessly, creating a production-ready system with proper testing, security, deployment, and monitoring.
