Excellent API integration skill with comprehensive coverage of authentication, error handling, rate limiting, and webhook patterns. The description clearly articulates when to use this skill, and the content provides production-ready code examples across multiple authentication methods (OAuth, API keys, JWT), robust error handling with retry logic, and real-world integration examples (Stripe, SendGrid, Twilio). Structure is logical with clear sections and best practices. The skill demonstrates strong task knowledge with reusable patterns like pagination, rate limiting, and circuit breakers. Novelty is moderate-to-good: while experienced developers know these patterns, consolidating them with security best practices, proper error handling, and webhook verification reduces token consumption and implementation time for a CLI agent that would otherwise need to synthesize this knowledge from multiple sources. Minor improvement could include separating complex patterns into referenced files for very large integrations, though current single-file structure works well for this scope.
