fastapi-mastery
Comprehensive FastAPI development skill covering REST API creation, routing, request/response handling, validation, authentication, database integration, middleware, and deployment. Use when working with FastAPI projects, building APIs, implementing CRUD operations, setting up authentication/authorization, integrating databases (SQL/NoSQL), adding middleware, handling WebSockets, or deploying FastAPI applications. Triggered by requests involving .py files with FastAPI code, API endpoint creation, Pydantic models, or FastAPI-specific features.
What this skill does
# FastAPI Mastery
## Overview
Build production-ready REST APIs with FastAPI using modern Python features, automatic validation, interactive documentation, and asynchronous capabilities.
## Quick Start
**Create a basic FastAPI application:**
```python
from fastapi import FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
@app.get("/")
async def root():
return {"message": "Hello World"}
```
**Run with:**
```bash
uvicorn main:app --reload
```
**Access interactive docs:** http://localhost:8000/docs
## Skill Structure by Complexity Level
This skill is organized into three progressive levels:
### Beginner (references/01-beginner.md)
Read when working with:
- First FastAPI application setup
- Basic routing and path operations
- Request parameters (path, query, body)
- Pydantic models and validation
- Response models and status codes
- Basic error handling
### Intermediate (references/02-intermediate.md)
Read when implementing:
- Authentication and authorization (JWT, OAuth2)
- Database integration (SQLAlchemy, async databases)
- Dependency injection system
- Middleware and CORS
- Background tasks
- File uploads and downloads
### Advanced (references/03-advanced.md)
Read when building:
- WebSocket connections
- Testing strategies (pytest, TestClient)
- Performance optimization
- Containerization and deployment
- API versioning
- Advanced error handling and logging
## Common Development Workflows
### Building a CRUD API
1. Define Pydantic models for request/response
2. Set up database models (SQLAlchemy)
3. Create path operations (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
4. Add validation and error handling
5. Implement authentication if needed
6. Add tests
**See references/01-beginner.md** for basic CRUD patterns, **references/02-intermediate.md** for database integration.
### Adding Authentication
1. Choose authentication method (JWT, OAuth2, API keys)
2. Set up security dependencies
3. Create login endpoint
4. Protect routes with dependencies
5. Handle token refresh if using JWT
**See references/02-intermediate.md** for complete authentication implementation.
### Database Integration
1. Choose database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB)
2. Install and configure ORM (SQLAlchemy, Tortoise, Motor)
3. Define database models
4. Set up database connection and session management
5. Create CRUD operations
6. Add migrations (Alembic)
**See references/02-intermediate.md** for database patterns.
## Best Practices
**Type hints:** Always use Python type hints for automatic validation and documentation.
```python
from typing import Optional
from pydantic import BaseModel
class Item(BaseModel):
name: str
price: float
description: Optional[str] = None
```
**Dependency injection:** Use FastAPI's dependency injection for shared logic.
```python
from fastapi import Depends
def get_current_user(token: str = Depends(oauth2_scheme)):
# Validate token and return user
return user
```
**Async when beneficial:** Use async for I/O-bound operations (database, external APIs).
```python
@app.get("/items/{item_id}")
async def read_item(item_id: int):
item = await database.fetch_one(query)
return item
```
**Response models:** Always define response models for API documentation and validation.
```python
@app.get("/items/{item_id}", response_model=ItemResponse)
async def read_item(item_id: int):
return item
```
## Reference Guide Selection
**Choose the appropriate reference based on your task:**
- **Creating first API or basic endpoints?** → references/01-beginner.md
- **Adding auth, databases, or middleware?** → references/02-intermediate.md
- **WebSockets, testing, or deployment?** → references/03-advanced.md
All reference files include comprehensive examples and can be read independently.

jfrog
IncludedInteract with the JFrog Platform via the JFrog CLI and REST/GraphQL APIs. Use this skill when the user wants to manage Artifactory repositories, upload or download artifacts, manage builds, configure permissions, manage users and groups, work with access tokens, configure JFrog CLI servers, search artifacts, manage properties, set up replication, manage JFrog Projects, run security audits or scans, look up CVE details, query exposures scan results from JFrog Advanced Security, manage release bundles and lifecycle operations, aggregate or export platform data, or perform any JFrog Platform administration task. Also use when the user mentions jf, jfrog, artifactory, xray, distribution, evidence, apptrust, onemodel, graphql, workers, mission control, curation, advanced security, exposures, or any JFrog product name.
cupynumeric-migration-readiness
IncludedPre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.
alibabacloud-data-agent-skill
IncludedInvoke Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI to perform natural language-driven data analysis on enterprise databases. Data Agent for Analytics is an intelligent data analysis agent developed by Alibaba Cloud Database team for enterprise users. It automatically completes requirement analysis, data understanding, analysis insights, and report generation based on natural language descriptions. This tool supports: discovering data resources (instances/databases/tables) managed in DMS, initiating query or deep analysis sessions, real-time progress tracking, and retrieving analysis conclusions and generated reports. Use this Skill when users need to query databases, analyze data trends, generate data reports, ask questions in natural language, or mention "Data Agent", "data analysis", "database query", "SQL analysis", "data insights".
token-optimizer
IncludedReduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
resend-cli
IncludedUse this skill when the task is specifically about operating Resend from an AI agent, terminal session, or CI job via the official resend CLI: installing/authenticating the CLI, sending/listing/updating/cancelling emails, batch sends, domains and DNS, webhooks and local listeners, inbound receiving, contacts, topics, segments, broadcasts, templates, API keys, profiles, or debugging Resend CLI/API failures. Trigger on mentions of Resend CLI, `resend`, `resend doctor`, `resend emails send`, `resend domains`, `resend webhooks listen`, `resend emails receiving`, or agent-friendly terminal automation.
alibabacloud-odps-maxframe-coding
IncludedUse this skill for MaxFrame SDK development and documentation navigation on Alibaba Cloud MaxCompute (ODPS). Helps answer MaxFrame API, concept, official example, and supported pandas API questions; create data processing programs; read/write MaxCompute tables; debug jobs (remote or local); and build custom DPE runtime images. Trigger when users mention MaxFrame, MaxCompute with MaxFrame, ODPS table processing, DPE runtime, MaxFrame docs/examples, DataFrame/Tensor operations, or GPU runtime setup. Works for both English and Chinese queries about Alibaba Cloud data processing with MaxFrame.
