View on GitHubWhat This Skill Does
Generates Pydantic v2 model sets following a multi-model pattern with Base, Create, Update, Response, and InDB variants. Designed for Python APIs that need consistent request/response schemas and database document types. Includes camelCase alias support and optional fields for PATCH endpoints.
Instead of hand-writing five related model classes per resource and remembering to keep them in sync, this skill scaffolds all variants from a single template with the correct field inheritance already wired.
When to use it
- Defining API request bodies with required field validation for POST endpoints
- Generating PATCH schemas where every field is optional by default
- Adding camelCase aliases so Python models accept both snake_case and camelCase JSON
- Creating Cosmos DB document models with a doc_type discriminator field
- Exporting matching model sets for Base, Create, Update, Response, and InDB from a single template
