Which AIP rules are supported?

The skill covers essential rules like AIP-122 (Resource Naming), AIP-158 (Pagination), AIP-193 (Errors), and specific guidelines for filtering, batching, and field masks.

How do I lookup a specific AIP number?

You can ask Claude about a specific number like 'AIP-158' or request guidance on topics like 'long-running operations' to trigger the relevant documentation.

How does this help with API hygiene?

It ensures your endpoints use consistent patterns for HTTP methods, pluralization, and response formats, reducing developer friction and improving API consumer experience.

Can it help with OpenAPI specifications?

Yes, the skill provides patterns and reference files specifically adapted for translating AIP concepts into REST and OpenAPI implementations.

What is the AIP Knowledge skill?

It is a specialized capability for Claude Code that provides instant access to Google's API Improvement Proposals for building high-quality, standardized REST APIs.
