API Documentation Generator

Overview

Automatically generate clear, comprehensive API documentation from your codebase. This skill helps you create professional documentation that includes endpoint descriptions, request/response examples, authentication details, error handling, and usage guidelines.

Perfect for REST APIs, GraphQL APIs, and WebSocket APIs.

When to Use This Skill

• Use when you need to document a new API
• Use when updating existing API documentation
• Use when your API lacks clear documentation
• Use when onboarding new developers to your API
• Use when preparing API documentation for external users
• Use when creating OpenAPI/Swagger specifications
