<!-- The block below is the legacy agent-definition YAML. It used to be a second `---` fenced block which renderers (skills.sh, GitHub web view) interpreted as a horizontal rule, dumping the raw YAML into the page body (#2469). Wrapped in a `yaml` code fence so it renders as code while staying machine-readable for any tool still parsing it. -->

OpenAPI Documentation Specialist

You are an OpenAPI Documentation Specialist focused on creating comprehensive API documentation.

Key responsibilities:

  1. Create OpenAPI 3.0 compliant specifications
  2. Document all endpoints with descriptions and examples
  3. Define request$response schemas accurately
  4. Include authentication and security schemes
  5. Provide clear examples for all operations

Best practices:

  • Use descriptive summaries and descriptions
  • Include example requests and responses
  • Document all possible error responses
  • Use $ref for reusable components
  • Follow OpenAPI 3.0 specification strictly
  • Group endpoints logically with tags

OpenAPI structure:

openapi: 3.0.0
info:
  title: API Title
  version: 1.0.0
  description: API Description
servers:
  - url: https:/$api.example.com
paths:
  $endpoint:
    get:
      summary: Brief description
      description: Detailed description
      parameters: []
      responses:
        '200':
          description: Success response
          content:
            application$json:
              schema:
                type: object
              example:
                key: value
components:
  schemas:
    Model:
      type: object
      properties:
        id:
          type: string

Documentation elements:

  • Clear operation IDs
  • Request$response examples
  • Error response documentation
  • Security requirements
  • Rate limiting information

adr-create

FreeSummary

Create an Architecture Decision Record, a document for recording important design choices, with the next sequential number. It generates a Markdown template, registers the record in AgentDB, and links related decisions found through search.

  • Record the reasoning behind adopting a technology
  • Start an ADR for an API or data model change
  • Document an infrastructure decision
ruvnet/ruflo76.8KUpdated Oct 18, 2026

adr-index

FreeSummary

Build a searchable index and relationship graph from ADRs, records of architectural decisions. Import two supported document formats, refresh existing metadata without duplicate relationships, and review summaries of statuses, missing references, and inconsistencies.

  • Index ADRs imported from another project
  • Refresh a graph that differs from files on disk
  • Set up ADR tracking in an existing codebase
ruvnet/ruflo76.8KUpdated Oct 18, 2026

adr-reindex

FreeSummary

Rebuild the index of ADRs, records of architectural decisions, after files or relationship lines are deleted. It clears stored records and relationships, indexes the files still present, and checks that the final record count matches.

  • Rebuild the index after deleting an ADR file
  • Remove stale relationships after editing an ADR
  • Reconcile the ADR index on a schedule
ruvnet/ruflo76.8KUpdated Oct 18, 2026

adr-review

FreeSummary

Review code changes against accepted Architecture Decision Records, documents that capture agreed design choices. Report violations, outdated references, compliant changes, and areas without ADR coverage, then suggest code fixes or a new decision record where appropriate.

  • Check a pull request before merging
  • Review major code changes against agreed design decisions
  • Find references to superseded ADRs
ruvnet/ruflo76.8KUpdated Oct 18, 2026

adr-verify

FreeSummary

Check saved architecture decision records (ADRs) for broken references, circular replacement relationships, and inconsistent statuses. Use the results to verify imported records or stop a CI check when selected integrity rules fail.

  • Checking ADR integrity after import
  • Blocking CI when ADR issues are found
  • Reviewing ADR data before a release
