Does this skill support specific message brokers?

Yes, it provides specialized patterns and bindings for major brokers including Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ (AMQP), MQTT, and WebSockets.

What is the main difference between AsyncAPI and OpenAPI?

OpenAPI is optimized for synchronous request/response patterns over HTTP, whereas AsyncAPI is specifically designed for asynchronous, message-based communication used in event-driven architectures.

What version of AsyncAPI does this skill support?

This skill is built for AsyncAPI 3.0, ensuring your specifications follow the latest industry standards for structure, channels, and operations.

Can I use this for .NET or C# development?

Absolutely. This skill includes specific implementation guidance for C# developers, focusing on event contracts and integrations with MassTransit and Confluent Kafka.

API Development

Designs robust event-driven API specifications using AsyncAPI 3.0 for message-based architectures and streaming services.

About

This skill provides comprehensive guidance for architecting event-driven systems using the AsyncAPI 3.0 specification. It helps developers define message-based communication patterns, configure protocol-specific bindings for Kafka, RabbitMQ, and MQTT, and implement scalable event contracts in C#. By following a documentation-first approach, the skill ensures high-quality schema evolution, backward compatibility, and structured channel naming conventions for complex distributed systems and real-time applications.
