What is the recommended naming convention for mutations?

This skill promotes a 'Noun + Verb' convention, such as 'createUser' or 'deletePost', to clearly communicate the state change occurring on a specific resource.

How does this skill handle validation errors?

It implements a pattern where validation failures are returned within a specific 'errors' field in the response payload, allowing clients to map messages to specific UI inputs.

Does this skill provide code implementation examples?

Yes, it includes standardized templates for GraphQL schema definitions and backend implementation patterns, specifically featuring Go-based examples.

Why should I use payloads instead of simple types in mutations?

Returning a dedicated payload type allows your API to evolve, providing space for metadata, status flags, and field-specific error arrays without breaking existing client integrations.

API Development

Implements standardized GraphQL mutations featuring robust payload patterns, input objects, and field-level error handling.

This skill provides Claude Code with expert-level guidance for architecting and implementing production-grade GraphQL mutations. It enforces industry best practices such as noun-verb naming conventions, the use of input objects for complex arguments, and the implementation of dedicated payload types to ensure API extensibility. By focusing on field-specific error patterns and idempotency, it helps developers build resilient, client-friendly APIs that handle state changes and validation failures gracefully across different backend environments.
