Review API Changes
Review workflow for changes that affect the public API
CLAUDE.md
When reviewing changes to a public API:
- Check for breaking changes: removed fields, renamed parameters, changed response shapes, new required fields.
- If breaking changes exist, verify the API version has been bumped.
- Check that new endpoints have input validation and return consistent error shapes.
- Check that the API documentation has been updated to match the changes.
- Check backwards compatibility: will existing clients break? Is there a migration path?
- Verify error codes and messages are helpful for API consumers.
- Check rate limiting and auth requirements on new endpoints.
Copy this workflow into your CLAUDE.md or agent config file so your agent follows this process automatically.
