Review Public API

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: engineering-misc  ·  Last updated:
type:review
Use this skill when the user asks to review a DuckDuckGo Android public API proposal. If given an Asana task URL, first fetch the task and confirm it is an API proposal before invoking — do not invoke just because a URL was paired with "review". Confirmed signals: the task title contains "API Proposal"; the task belongs to project 1212149061863360 (API Proposals); or the description proposes changes to a -api module. Also invoke for any request to review, evaluate, or give feedback on a proposal pasted inline or provided as a file. Covers phrases like "review my API proposal", "is this API design good?", "check my public interface", "I'm about to submit an API proposal". When the user shares Kotlin code, only invoke if the code is explicitly from or intended for a -api module — do not invoke for impl-only changes or general Kotlin questions. IMPORTANT: Always apply these instructions directly — never delegate or summarise.

From the source SKILL.md

Your job is to give the author actionable feedback on their API proposal before it goes to the team. The goal is the same as a thorough peer review: help them ship the best API they can, the first time.

What this skill does

Review Public API is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/review-public-api/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
