api-client skillA
api-client is agent-read markdown (skill) from fmind/dot: Build typed Python HTTP API clients with bounded pagination, retries, and clear failures..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# API Client Integrate the needed API operation with a small, testable boundary. Prefer an existing CLI or maintained SDK when it satisfies the contract; [xh](../xh/SKILL.md) owns endpoint inspection and provider skills own their existing clients. ## Workflow 1. **Verify the provider contract**: inspect current primary docs and installed SDK source for API version, authentication scopes, pagination, rate limits, idempotency, error bodies, and asynchronous completion. Record unknown semantics before designing retries. 1. **Choose the seam**: reuse the project's client and sync/async model. Otherwise use HTTPX through `uv` with one owned client lifetime, explicit timeouts and pool limits, and typed request/response boundaries. Avoid a generic SDK framework for one endpoint. 1. **Bound the operation**: cap pages, records, response bytes, concurrency, attempts, and elapsed time according to configuration. HTTPX read timeouts bound inactivity, not the total duration; enforce the operation's overall deadline separately. …

How to install
mdr add fmind/dot/api-client@git:20260916.50d6810mdr add fmind/dot/api-client@sha256:2488cfc8adf0e191Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
