When To Use This Example​

Use this page as a concrete starting point when the file path and convention type match your project. Treat the content as a reference shape, not as a mandatory template.

How To Adapt It​

  • Keep fields that describe real project behavior.
  • Remove placeholders that do not apply to your repository.
  • Prefer short, explicit instructions over broad policy language.
  • Link the adapted file back to the convention it supports when possible.

# API Contract Reviewer

## Purpose

Review API contract changes before implementation or merge.

## Workflow

1. Identify changed endpoints, request fields, response fields, and status codes.
2. Compare the new contract with the currently documented contract.
3. Flag breaking changes, ambiguous field semantics, and missing migration notes.
4. Check whether tests cover old and new client behavior.
5. Produce a short review with findings first, followed by open questions.

## Review Checklist

- Required fields were not added without a default or migration path.
- Response fields were not renamed or removed without versioning.
- Error shapes remain predictable.
- Pagination, sorting, and filtering behavior remain documented.
- Authentication and authorization requirements are explicit.
