View on GitHubWhat This Skill Does
Generates FastAPI router files with CRUD endpoints, authentication dependencies, and typed response models. Follows a template-based pattern with PascalCase/snake_case resource naming. Covers HTTP status codes, optional vs required auth, and service layer integration steps.
Writing FastAPI routers by hand means re-looking up the same patterns for auth dependencies, status codes, and response models every time — this skill encodes those conventions into a reusable template.
When to use it
- Scaffolding a new REST resource with GET, POST, PUT, DELETE endpoints
- Adding JWT-protected routes with required or optional authentication
- Typing API responses with Pydantic models to enforce output schemas
- Returning correct HTTP status codes like 201 on create or 204 on delete
- Wiring a new router into an existing FastAPI app's main entry point
